It appears that Madonna’s Australian fans just can’t get enough of the tracks from the singer’s forthcoming 13th studio album ‘Rebel Heart’.
Word of the new Madonna LP broke late yesterday afternoon, with six songs made available for immediate download (‘Living For Love’, ‘Devil Pray’, ‘Ghosttown’, ‘Unapologetic Bitch’, ‘Illuminati’ and ‘Bitch, I’m Madonna’). Each of the six tracks is currently sitting back to back in positions 12-17 on the iTunes singles chart and it would appear that the vast majority of Madge’s global fandom likes what she’s serving up.
Of course, the release of the six tracks yesterday was in reaction to the recent leak of these (and more) songs onto the net; Madonna confirming that she had planned to drop the lead single on February 14.
“I was hoping to release my new single “Living For Love” on Valentine’s Day with the rest of the album coming in the Spring,” she said in a statement. “I would prefer my fans to hear completed versions of some of the songs instead of the incomplete tracks that are circulating. Please consider these six songs as an early Christmas gift.”
Producers whose work features on the album include Diplo, Kanye West, Billboard, dahi and Blood Diamond, along with Madonna herself.
More music from ‘Rebel Heart’ is set to be released on Monday February 09, with the album currently slated for a global March 10 release.
