CLASSIC POP PRESENTS Magazine June 2023 – MADONNA Vol 2 Cover #1

From discovering herself in Michigan to immersing herself in New York’s clubland, Madonna made waves from the very start, with a run of hit records that would go on to become classics of the decade. Since those early days, Madonna has become a master of reinvention to deliver a brilliant and diverse catalogue that has filled dancefloors while boldly challenging the status quo. 

In this special issue we explore that illustrious career from New York’s clubland and on to her rightful place crowned as Queen Of Pop, bringing things up to date and previewing her upcoming Celebration tour.

We revisit and review every one of her studio albums from her self-titled debut through to Madame X, we examine her intimate behind-the-scenes documentary Truth Or Dare and her soundtrack albums, plus we remember her classic film role in Desperately Seeking Susan.

Elsewhere there’s features on her ground-breaking Blond Ambition Tour, we speak to Madonna author and expert Matthew Rettenmund, and there’s fascinating opinion pieces on her vital relationship with gay culture over the years and her legacy. As usual, we also handpick our definitive Top 40 – and plenty more!
