"Catalog series"? Oh God they're going down the Bjork route by releasing dozens of different versions of the same albums that everyone who actually cares about this announcement already owns just to squeeze a few extra coins out of nostalgic fans. Because I guess every Madonna fan needs 12 versions of each album in various formats. 

I don't think it's much about the format, but the unreleased content. Well, at least that's what I get with "expansive deluxe editions" unless it's just remixes or stuff like that

Prince did it with his iconic albums purple rain, 1999 and sign of the times, you had to get the more expensive version which for sign was like close to 200 dollars to get the vault material and the live DVD. 

 

It was worth it for that 150 page book..

 

Why is everyone concerned about people's wallets. Be concerned about your own. 

 

Besides of Britney or MC did this you wouldn't complain.

Smart smart smart.

I think this will attract some young gp towards her music, Madonna really became something else - if she didn't push the limits no Britney would've never happened. 

I also feel, Janet also deserves a lot of recognition she literally has sone of the best albums.

Unfortunately the super bowl incident sadly did damage to Janet Jackson that seems irreversible at this point. 

 

Her monthly spotify listeners actually show that, she was erased from pop culture and watched all her accolades and impact on culture disappear in a second..

 

She had to go independent cos I don't think any major label would sign her, and be told no, we will not book her. 

 

Plus her masters are gone as well google the universal studios fire, Janet has a part of  her recording legacy gone as well as the Jackson 5.

God, I hope we're getting some of her rare bonus tracks. Unfortunately, the anniversary edition of True Blue was a letdown. And we still don't have the Madame X bonus tracks when Rebel Heart got a separate digital EP.

This is what makes me really sad, even my generation doesn't know Janet or can name one of her songs this is really sad Janet has such better discography too no Britney would've happened without Janet!

MDNA was a mess of an album but the tour made up for it

omg i hope she rereleases erotica 

And the book that accompanies the album. It won't be as controversial as it was in 1992.

It will start in 2022, while the album Madonna" didn't come out until 1983.

 

Her debut single was issued on October 6, 1982..

 

The campaign was announced today on the favorite day of any leo, their birthday but will begin next year. 

[Marnz]

Woo...happy birthday Queen 

[scottmoorela]

I have the box set for Madame X (not my favorite album..but still) and the box set of the Rebel Heart album (which I loved). I wish WB would release a set like this for each of her older albums. That would be amazing.. plus demos or new songs on each album. I know M's all about the remixes..but I'd prefer something from the vault.. 

[Mmdellavecchia]

I only care about these when they include unreleased stuff (even unreleased stuff that we have actually heard before but hasn't been available for streaming). And k agree the true blue recent re release was a let down. I still want a solo HQ version of "each time you break my heart".

Nobody can do it like Madonna.

I can feel the honest love and respect for her catalogue, bet those releases will be top notch.

But at the same time I'm dead at them only referencing her earlier work... 

I see Guy Oseary paying attention to these releases but I hope they don't only concentrate on her most recognized work or the ones who they know will sell more...

JUSTICE TO MUSIC

Let's just be honest those remixes are part of her artistry.  

 

50 #1 dance hits in the US is due to those remixes. You think it would happen based off the album mixes, not the ballads. 

 

The true blue made me happy as most of those were only on vinyl..

 

Billboard talked about It, in their podcast 

 

@I Always Sing Live

she never was one to embrace her past or her legacy. 

 

She was always the now, so with the biopic coming, it must have had a change of heart, plus they said the rumored 450 Million signing to Madonna, also doesn't hurt as money will make anybody happy to embrace their past. 

 

They also talk new Music, Keith said you know it's in that deal, but it's being denied right now, cos that requires additional money and discussion, no way would Madonna go back home unless a great deal was offer, that 17 studio album thing is vague. And I doubt Madonna would do unreleased music and sell it as a studio album.

 

They talked about how Dua lipa put Warner records back in the mainstream after years of unpopularity and all joked at the idea of Dua lipa and Madonna album is coming. That's one of the 17 albums..

 

Apparently the Madonna remix of Levitating was played at a wedding, the host Katy said. Of course that remixed changed the song, the way Madonna says yeah, yeah, yeah. They all was like it's not the same song. Madonna hijacked a Dua lipa track and changed it to her liking, which Keith said. This would explain Madonna writing credit in that remix as she basically remade that song to her club style. But hey the Dababy version is unpopular now thanks to his mouth, the Madonna version might get love after all.
