It Happened

Filed under: Madonna > Music Minute > Pharrell > Timbaland

hard-candymadonna__opt1.jpg

About half of Madonna's album leaked onto the Internet this weekend.

In total, six songs hit the net.

They are:

Heartbeat
Give It 2 Me
Miles Away
Incredible
She's Not Me
Beat Goes On

And, we must say: we're relieved!

The songs aren't straight up hip hop, as we were concerned, especially by the choice of 4 Minutes as the single.

The new material still stays true to Madonna's core as a pop/dance artist.

Oh, and by the way, the Pharrell songs blow Timbaland's out of the water!

Get stupid! Get stupid! Don't stop!

  34. Scott says – reply to this


    34

    my comment doesnt have anything to do with the above article, but i would like to address Perez in asking why there was nothing mentioned of Kelly Clarkson performing Ave Maria infront of Pope Benedict on saturday infront of nearly 25,000 people, but you never fail to mention when she gets bad reviews for a concert in some foreign place! Just food for thought…

  35. sebrina says – reply to this


    35

    wow u r such a mariah hater LOL the entire cd has actually leaked now and i got to admit its garbage she should stick to her old stuff

  36. No More Hard Candy Pictures! says – reply to this


    36

    This is about the 5th time that you've posted this picture of Madonna — that's 5 times too many! It's a terrible picture. No amount of airbrushing can hide the fact that she's 50, overly surgered, and grizzled as a piece of beef jerky. Nobody wants to see her dressed like that — except for a tiny percentage of people who are into middle-aged women who dress like teenage prostitutes.

  37. Matthew says – reply to this


    37

    So it a positive thing that Madonna ablum leaked??? But when Mariah did Perez you said no one would buy Mariah's ablum. Interesting!!!

  38. pete says – reply to this

    This is going to be the RECORD of the YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!! AMAZING ALBUM!

  39. Cassie says – reply to this


    39

    I can't believe the sheer amount of cruelty readers on this sight are capable of…about Madonna and most everything else…she looks great, and from the few songs I have heard from the new album–she sounds great, too. :)

  40. KandyGirl says – reply to this


    40

    This is the best album of 2008. I really love itttt specialy She's not me.

  41. Ren.d says – reply to this


    41

    The whole album has leaked already 6 days ago. :-S

  42. HHN says – reply to this


    42

    I've only heard Candy Shop and Beat Goes On, with the latter being light years better than 4 Minutes. I've waiting this long…I can wait 10 more days!

  43. jj says – reply to this


    43

    I HEARD ALL 6 SONGS AND THEY ARE AMAAAAAAAAZING. GIVE IT TO ME IS out of this world. One of the best Madonna songs evaaah. MILES AWAY and BEAT GOES ON are incredible. HEARTBEAT and SHE'S NOT ME brings the 80's, 90's and present Madonna all together. Loved Confessions on a Dancefloor but this album blows it out of the water. You outdid yourself Madge. Truly truly MADGESTIC!!!

  44. Yeah Right says – reply to this


    44

    Re: Scott – Fuck you, Scott. Kelly Clarkson sucks! Who cares if she performs in front of the pope? Is that supposed to work in her favor somehow? Of all the reasons to hate Perez Hilton, the fact that he doesn't like Kelly Clarkson is not very high on the list for any reasonable person.

  45. Cece says – reply to this


    45

    She might as well leak the whole album. No one's going to buy that garbage anyway.

    Ain't no big deal. She's a has-been that hopes you'll buy her trash - even though she won't let own kids even watch TV. She's a joke.

  55. Jon says – reply to this


    55

    All of the songs are so sick it's impossible to comprehend. I'm so blown away. Mariah's album is crap compared to this.

  56. Pharrell sucks says – reply to this

  57. J7 says – reply to this


    57

  58. Ironic says – reply to this


    58

    Rememeber when MC's cd leaked? Perez made it seem like it was the end of the world.

    He's sucha hatah and despite his attempts, Touch My Body has led 4 Minutes on the Hot 100 each week the singles have been out.

    Madonna can take the UK, Mariah dominates in the U.S.

  59. You're stupid says – reply to this

    It had ALREADY leaked. Late as hell news.

  60. Jo says – reply to this

    67

    Mariah BLOWS. At least Madonna isn't walking around in mini skirts that show her fat ass when she is too old to do so. She is classier than that has been.

  76. MADONNA = LEGEND says – reply to this


    76

    The Madonna haters crack me the fuck up…and I can tell that from most of the comments they must be delusional little lambs. Madonna has had a larger impact on contemporary music, video, and pop culture as a whole than any other female artist in history. Who cares that Mariah Carey has 18 number 1s in the US? Can any non-lamb even name half of them? Many of Madonna's greatest hits never hit #1…Holiday (16), Material Girl (2), Express Yourself (2), Lucky Star (4), La Isla Bonita (4), Into the Groove (5 - as a b-side), Ray of Light (5), Borderline (10). All of these songs have stood the test of time more than any song Mariah Carey has ever put out…all without hitting #1. When's the last time you heard a Mariah Carey song on the radio that wasn't her current single? That's what I thought…

  77. Where 2 dowload??? says – reply to this

    Someone please tell me where i can download this??? I fucking love Madonna. She is #1 in the WORLD charts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooooohhhhooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THIS ALBUM IS GOING TO BE MASSIVE. I LOVE THE LEAKED SONGS ALREADY. VERY FRESH AND CATCHY. NOBODY COMBINES POP, RN'B, & ELECTRO QUITE LIKE MADONNA. SHE IS THE QUEEN AND A TRUE LEGEND. RESPECT. xx

  80. CDIDDY says – reply to this


    80

    I am not going to disagree with the fact that Madonna is a very very talented woman. But, does any one else think that the above picture looks like an aging woman in a granny swimsuit? I have to agree on the fact that it is time to act age appropriate. I am kind of sick of seeing her crotch. It's way past time to cover the thing up…….

  81. ANDREZ says – reply to this


    81

    ITS AMAZING HOW FAR THIS UNTALENTED WHORE HAS COME BY USING HER SEXUALITY.tHE WORLD WILL SEE THAT IN A HANDFUL OF YEARS THAT SHE WILL GET OLDER AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SELL SEX HOW UNTALENTED THIS PIECE OF SHIT WHORE IS! CANT WAIT!!!

    84

    Re: MADONNA = LEGEND – yes but that was a long time ago when she actually made good music…now…she sucks ASS.
    lamb? fuck that. I'm no fan of Mariah cowrey. i dislike both these old hag's music.

  85. IGGY says – reply to this


    85

    AMAAAAAZING. None of these songs are generic and yet they are all so catchy. Judging from what I've heard so far, I think I'll like this CD more than Confessions which I thought would never happen. A truly remarkable artist. Always pushing herself and it almost always pays off. It certainly does this time.

  86. Brent says – reply to this


    86

    Madonna will always be on top. Always. Notice the more you hate on her the more famous, rich, talented and beautiful she becomes! You guys are dumbfucks, Madonna is the greatest pop star the world has ever known. I thank God every day for her very existence.

    (Only fat people and losers don't like Madonna)

  87. I LOVE PHARRELL says – reply to this


    87

    OF COURSE PHARRELL'S SONGS ARE BETTER!!! DUHHHHH, WHAT ELSE IS NEW? PHARRELL KNOWS HOW TO MAKE POP HITS LIKE THE BACK OF HIS HAND. HE DID IT FOR GWEN, BRITNEY, JUSTIN, AND THE LIST GOES ONNNNN. YALL BETTER RECOGNIZE!!!!!

  88. TonyT says – reply to this


    88

    I just downloaded and these songs are a bunch of forgettable drivel. she's not me, she doesn't have my name, blah blah blah…the best is when madonna tries to sing up high. she should have stayed in the studio until she had better songs. on and on and the beat goes on and on and the beat goes……zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    Once again Madonna scoops and sprays a huge heap of shit all over Mooriah and makes sausage legs look like an idiot. Enough said.

  90. Justinssss says – reply to this


    90

    is there a reason why you can't preview madonna's songs on amazon???? oh yeah because they probably suck. who is going to buy an album that sucks? madonna is delusional.

  91. memo says – reply to this


    91

    Bitches dont bring mariah into this ..

    Im soorrry but how did Holiday and songs like that stand the test of time?!?!?
    P.S. I rarely hear old madonna songs on the radio.. Sorry but radio doesnt work for madonna… Video's are another thing..!!

    Mariah is definately in a different league that this ho…

    Seriously comparing that to Mariah, The Voice?!? Seriously?!?!

    I swear you cant even compare madonna hugest hit with mariah..

    So don't even start…!!

  92. lamb says – reply to this


    92

    Re: MADONNA = LEGEND – Yeah, Madonna's earlier work (from the 80's-90's) is better than Mariah's, but certainly not her more recent stuff. 4 Minutes is average in comparison to Holiday and Material Girl. E=MC2 is the shit!

  93. Express Yourself says – reply to this


    93

    This is gonna be a a huge album. Especially love Give it 2 Me - is just awesome! :)

  94. andrea says – reply to this

    this album is mmmm normal

  95. See My Booty Go Down says – reply to this


    95

    Madonna has always been a way better singer than Mariah or Janet. Madonna doesn't have to try so hard. She is a true artiste.

  96. what? says – reply to this


    96

    I love how when mariah leaks u make it an issue but madonna leaks and u make out its a good thing.

    Sadly, madonnas album is shit. Im not saying that as a mariah fan, i didnt buy that rubbish either. but madonnas is the worse out the two. perez looks like a fucking idiot being so two faced.
