She was basically taking a shot at Gaga in that interview.

I was hoping after all the positive reviews that this album would live up to it's hype, but I'm not crazy about ANY of the clips that have come out so far. Her vocals sound very overproduced and all the songs sound the same to me. Very disappointed.

THIS IS AMAZING.
Gang Bang/I Don't Give A/I'm A Sinner/Love Spent for early favorites.

I think the album is good overall and I may actually buy it. My favorite tracks are "Turn Up the Radio", "Some Girls", "I Don't Give A" and "Masterpiece".

I listened to this in full today and while it's still disappointing it isn't as bad of an album as I predicted. "Gang Bang", "I Don't Give A", and "Masterpiece" were standouts.

MADONNA’S MATERIAL GAINS
New MDNA Album Debuts on Top, Richie, Shinedown Debut
March 28, 2012
She’s no longer “Like a Virgin,” or even the Material Girl, for that matter, but Madonna is still a pop diva superstar.
Madge’s Interscope debut, MDNA, her 12th studio album and first under a recently inked deal with Live Nation, is her first new collection in four years, since 2008’s Hard Candy. It’s a lock for #1 on next week’s HITS Album sales chart, with between 325-350k, beating that album’s 280k opening.
Those figures are based on one-day sales figures which our crack retail staff arrived at by throwing darts at a board. Take that, Soundscan!
Lionel Richie’s Mercury Nashville bow, Tuskegee, a collection of his greatest hits performed with country stars such as Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Tim McGraw, Shania Twain, Willie Nelson and Jimmy Buffett, is the big surprise, with a robust first-week estimate in the 140-160k range. The album has even hit the #1 slot at iTunes over Madonna.
Veteran Atlantic Florida rockers Shinedown’s fourth studio album, Amaryllis, their first since 2008’s The Sound of Madness, is on track for first-week sales of 80-90k, easily topping that album’s 50k.
Hopeless’ The Used release Vulnerable, the Orem, UT, thrash-rockers’ fifth studio album and first since leaving their longtime label Warner Bros./Reprise, which looks to be in the 20-25k range.
Interscope’s veteran Oklahoma post-punks All-American Rejects’ fourth album, Kids in the Street, is slated to do between 17-20k, a striking comedown from their last, 2008’s When the World Comes Down, which did 112k its first week..
Prog-rocking Texas band The Mars Volta’s Noctourniquet, their sixth full-length album, and second from Warner Bros., is also in the 17-20k range.
Mercury/IDJ Canadian rock group My Darkest Days’ sophomore album, Sick and Twisted Affair, fueled by the hit single, “Porn Star Dancing,” should do between 12-15k
Album sales were down 3% vs. last week, down 16% vs. same week last year and up 1% year to date.
Track sales were up 2% vs. last week, up 3% vs. same week last year and up 6% year to date.
TEA sales were down 2% vs. last week, down 11% vs. same week last year and up 2% year to date.

After listening to the album a few times, here's how I would have handled the era: 1. Turn Up The Radio - Released the Monday leading to the superbowl (January 2012 - Mid April 2012) 2. I Don't Give A (feat. Nicki Minaj) (End of April 2012 - Mid August 2012) 3. Masterpiece (Beginning of Sept 2012 - End of Dec 2012) 4. Girl Gone Wild (Mid Jan 2013 - End of April 2013)

Girl Gone Wild (Mid Jan 2013 - End of April 2013) See, I have a different theory. I think it would have been fine if she released GMAYL as the first single (no, not as an excused "heater track" - a REAL first single), BUT she should have released it in January. There would have been a massive buildup to the Superbowl performance and the song could have had a greater longevity. I feel like performing the song 2 days after it was released killed the hype because it was all 3 things (the song, the video, and the performance) all in one weekend It should have been spaced out. And ofcourse, Madonna would have needed to kidnap Britney and have her featured on GGW as a second single release, since there was already rumors she was on it when the track list was released. I felt sort of bad for Madonna, bc when Ryan Seacrest was interviewing her and asked her about the possible duet, she answered "No, it's just little old me [on the song]". Planning on listening to album TOMORROW! Cannot wait!

As Joel, Derek and I predicted, she's having a huge drop next week.

Yup nearly a 90% drop! That's what happens you cheat your way into extra sales.
