Copydonna Releases Bitch I'm Madonna Music Video

I don't usually like to post negative stuff, but Madonna's latest single just begs to be dragged. It's true, the entire Rebel Heart era hasn't been successful (just like the previous one, MDNA), but at least Madonna managed to keep some level of dignity. Well, that was until now.

After the first two singles, Living For Love and Ghosttown, both of which failed to impact the charts, but had great videos, comes the third single with the desperate title Bitch I'm Madonna. Bad news, Madge, we have good enough memory to remember Britney Spears' hit Gimme More from 2007, which opens with the famous line "It's Britney, bitch". So yeah, you could've been more original with the song title. Also, you're (too put it bluntly) too old to be using such lines in your songs. A little class would be appreciated.

Next on the list of copying is the music video. Weeks after Taylor Swift released her Bad Blood video filled with celebrities, Madonna does the same for this song. Granted, Madonna managed to gather bigger stars to appear in her video than Taylor did - Nicki Minaj, Beyonce, Katy Perry (sorry, Taylor), Kanye West, etc. but the idea is not original. To make matters worse, the video premiered today on Tidal. It's like she just wants to flop as hard as possible. The Vevo premiere is tomorrow, though, so if you don't have a Tidal account (lol who does?), just wait for one more day.

Update: the video is now on Vevo, take a look (if you dare):

Thirdly, can we talk about the Microsoft Paint-created single cover (pictured above)? No, that would be too much? OK...

Now, not taking into account all of this floppage, what's the actual song like? Well, I dare you to listen to more than 1 minute of it. Because I can't - it's just bad. The music is annoying, the effects on her voice are annoying (especially in the part "we go hard or we go home, we gon' do this all night long"), and the lyrics are... Well, the title says it all.

Although Ghosttown wasn't a success, at least it was a beautiful song and had a great video. Madonna also did some live performances of it and they were really good. On the other hand, Bitch I'm Madonna reeks of desperation. The video will generate some buzz, no doubt, but I'll be surprised if the song actually becomes a hit.
