Induction of Madonna

Doors opened wide for Madonna Louise Ciccone in 1982, after five years as a singer and dancer on New York Citys competitive club circuit. She signed with Sire Records (her label for the next 14 years) where her idiosyncratic persona exploded onto turntables, dance floors and airwaves and captured the imagination of the first generation of MTV viewers. She went on to become the top female star of the 1980s with seven #1 hits, three #1 albums and seventeen top ten hits in that decade. In addition to molding her public image, Madonna is a meticulous studio craftsperson and completely uninhibited stage performer. From her first #1, 1984s Like A Virgin (produced by Nile Rogers of Chic) to her most recent two year Confessions campaign, Madonna remains one of the most ferociously original artists in music today.

This legendary woman was only 49 years old when she was inducted in March 2008 and was voted in by the public and her musical peers during her FIRST year of eligibility !! This honor was so well deserved. Madonna changed the face of our cultural landscape through her artistry like no one else before or since. Gaga, Beyonce, J. Lo, Britney, Christina, Rihanna, Adele, Timberlake, Bieber, Katy, Taylor and many more of the current crop cite Madonna as an influence on their careers. She deserves mad love and respect!

***** That comment as Madonna would say is - REDUCTIVE!

[@alberto92271]

***** How is it so many people do not understand that A, Rock & Roll, when it comes to the hall of fame encompasses any & all music that helped to shape Rock & Roll AND that many of the artists that have been inducted have directly inspired Rock & Roll artists? Without Bluegrass AND R&B, ROCK & ROLL would not be possible! Led Zeppelin would not be possible without the artists that Jimmy & Robert were influenced by. I don't think you have to be a music scholar to hear the Country, Jazz, Folk and even Reggae influence in their songs. Should Etta James, Bob Marley, the Four Seasons, Aretha Franklin not be inducted because they aren't a typical "Rock" act? That's absurd. All artists are inspired by any number of genres. And that includes Madonna, who has not JUST inspired pop acts. Acts like Sonic Youth, Flaming Lips, Prince, Tori Amos and DOZENS more have coverd Madonna. Add to that, Madonna's Fuck You attitude and she is, Rock & Roll. Whether you like it or not.

"[Madonna] is a brilliant pop melodist and lyricist. I was knocked out by the quality of the writing [during Ray of Light sessions]. The lyrics to "The Power of Good-Bye" are stunning. I love Madonna as an artist and a songwriter... I know she grew up on Joni Mitchell and Motown, and to my ears she embodies the best of both worlds. She is a wonderful confessional songwriter, as well as being a superb hit chorus pop writer... She doesn’t get the credit she deserves as a writer." -Rick Nowels, who co-wrote with Madonna on Ray of Light, commented on her songwriting skill.[264]

"MADONNA LOOKS BACK" the Rolling Stone interview (2009): "When I do my shows and see how music transports people, which I realize more than anything when I see people crying, or static, is how music affects people and the power it has over all other forms art. I'm so touched and moved by the music of others - I am a human being like everyone else. We must all share the same connection, so I 'm privileged and blessed to be a channel for music. In the end, will think about how I threw myself in search of my shoes at the VMAs and I was naked in the newspapers, or will remember "Live To Tell"? I think, ultimately, people remember the authenticity. They remind of what is true, and the rest loses momentum. Will remember that come from the heart of a person."

She is THE BEST SINGER IN THE UNIVERSE!! Her music makes the world better, listen to "Everybody." She's also a true romantic listen to "Think of me," "true blue." Celebrating Love, expressing female sexiness is what the message is in most of her music "'Material Girl" and eroticism "Give it to me," Burning up for your Love." She is electrifying and energetic, with lyrical spellbinding effects with a ray of energy like no other just watch "Vogue." She has plenty of female empowerment messages in her musical lyrics "Borderline, Express Yourself, Papa Don't Preach, Like A Virgin (shiny and new), Secret, You'll See." Her music is transcending: Beautiful stranger, Everybody, Holiday. Negative people don't hate just celebrate her talent, she's a Gambler who can Liv to Tell that her songs have lyrics that will attract every generation, just listen to Crazy for You.

You realize Justin didn't write that speech at the beginning? They hire speech writers...

I still think Justin Timberlake wasn't the right person to induct Madonna in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I think Bjórk, Britney Spears, Alanis Morissette, Kylie Minogue or Prince deserved to be the one who inducts her in the Hall of Fame. I really wanted to see Kylie or Britney inducting her.

We love you Madonna!!

[@MsRadar23]

she’s so intelligent...her speech was so poignant and revealing

[@x.ryelandvincent3509]

30 years later and she's still the best ! Long live the Real Queen !

“To rule the world” and boy didn’t she do just that and then some! Shes always been one step ahead of the trends. The way she’s reinvented herself numerous times, both musically and aesthetically, has been thrilling to watch. She’s got it on the money every single time, and she’s never missed a beat as far as upping her game and taking the next performance always to another level. Sadly her back catalogue is often down played, over looked or even banned from radio play, much of her work outside of music also goes without the deserved recognition or appreciation. Her creative is like no other, there’s never been another female artist who is able to remould themselves, remain current and hold on to their fan base the way Madonna has. Shes a real life chameleon, no genre out of bounds. Anyone remember the critics leading up to Evita’s release? And the joke was on them when she smashed the vocals out of the park, just like everything else she’s put her name to. She’s given us an awesome four decades and I’m sure she’s going to continue to inspire, educate, entertain and occasionally shock us for many more years to come. Anyone born post 90’s just don’t get it, you had to be there in the 80’s when she broke into the industry and followed her career. Icon. Legend. THE Queen of Pop. Period.

This legendary mega superstar deserves "respect" She is the last man standing. I love you Madonna since the very start untill today 2023.❤❤❤

Madonna is a strong Woman Not a man

[@wellkevelly290]

Just listen her name and you'll feel the power: MADONNA. Can you feel it? It's so sad the ageism against her. This women always have courage, too much more than so many. She's a impact in the pop culture. She's the true power. She's Madonna. ❤️❤️❤️

[@deborahdemoraes228]

Lenda! Icone! Ela sim, conquistou o mundo. Um espetáculo! 👏🏻🥰

[@dryan2259]

Her hair, makeup, outfit, and those cheeks were wtf decisions but she is the smartest and most talented performance artist who ever lived and has been entertaining and inspiring me since I was a teenager. So glad I was attracted to her from the beginning, because I picked a real winner.

[@Matuteilcapo]

The Almighty Madonna!! The legend, the ultimate Pop Super Star!! The best selling female recording artist of all time!! Long live the Queen!! We love Madame ❌👑 #QueenOfPop
