Now that Madonna has formally started working on her first album in 3 years, it`s time to repair our favorite soap opera, Madonna Album Rumors! In today`s saucy tale of intrigue, the Material Girl allegedly disses a hot producer, looks outside of the mainstream for her musical inspirations, and finds her "Way Back Home". Indulge in some rumor-mongering below!
Reports Digital Spy (via Madonna fan site Queen Madonna), Madonna has turned down the chance to go with heavily sought-after producer RedOne (who produced Lady Gaga`s Born This Way as good as more songs than we have room to mention) in favour of collaborating with up-and-coming talent.
"She`s the author of virtually all of the new lyrics," a source claims. "Producer Joe Henry is byzantine in two songs so far. Most of the early producers are not so famous. Her record company wanted her to go with renowned producers such as RedOne, which she refused to do."
Joe Henry, by the by, is Madonna`s brother-in-law, and is commonly associated with bluesy rock (Aimee Mann, Elvis Costello) than pop. MTV also reports that French electro producer Martin Solveig (Dragonette) has been running with Madge on her new album.
Her musical inspirations this time around are reportedlyJessica 6, Beth Ditto and The Sound Of Arrows. Diagram Of The Eye have also sent in a present that Madonna has already recorded (reportedly titled "Way Back Home") that "starts off with some soft and violins then [turns] into a dance track."
So, if these rumors are to be believed, we`re in for some 70s-sounding electro rock and Euro-pop? Not exactly breaking boundaries there, but we constantly give Madonna the welfare of the doubt that she`ll put her own twist on things. Beth Ditto is likewise an interesting name to make in there, since the Gossip singer was influenced by Madge`s "Justify My Love" for her recent video for "I Wrote The Book":
What would you like to see on Madonna`s new album? How near a new Lady Gaga collaboration to draw up for the disappointing last one?
