Trve. Crvp. Pop! Ep.13: Madonna - MDNA

It has been a while, but we are back with another Trve. Crvp. Pop!, the search for the worst album of all time.On this episode Steve and Sam look at MDNA, the 12th studio album from US pop icon Madonna, released on the 23rd of March 2012.It looked like Madonna had effortlessly sidestepped the late period wobble that so many of her contemporaries suffered in the 2000's when she released 2005's Confessions on a Dancefloor album and was at the top of her game once again. Even the Hard Candy album of 2008 yielded a pretty massive single as well. Well done Madonna, you've cracked it!Or had she, soon things started to get pretty messed up in here personal life, a divorce from cockney, wide boy movie director Guy Ritchie was a right slap in the facking noggin... or something. And by the time she was pimping herself out on Facebook for people to collab with in 2011, it looked like another wobble was on its way.It was when the title for her comeback album was released that things took a serious turn for the worst though, the clunky MDNA made people worry she was trying too hard, and when the album arrived and sold less than a 5th of Confessions... the "Is Madonna past it" discourse started up again. A decade later though, is MDNA that bad? Well, we'll let you know.
