CRITIC REVIEWS

When it comes to partaking in pop, MDNA has easily set itself out as 2012’s go-to drug of choice. 

80
PopMatters

MDNA is quite possibly Madonna’s best album in over a decade.

70
NME

In the end, ‘MDNA’ is a ridiculously enjoyable romp, but oddly not for the bits that are supposed to be fun.

70
SPIN

This is the most naked she's been in years.

60
Drowned in Sound

Not unlike Born This Way, MDNA is a bit all over the place with moments of brilliance often stood right next to a hugely underwhelming counterpart.

50
A.V. Club

Madonna herself seems absent from much of MDNA

50
FACT Magazine

She now sounds like a woman groping in the dark, occasionally hitting on a trick that works but still unsure of what her voice should be.

45
Pitchfork

This one feels particularly hollow, the dead-eyed result of obligations, deadlines, and hedged bets.

40
No Ripcord

It’s not exactly bad, but has about as much creativity and passion behind it as a spreadsheet.

40
Consequence of Sound

Whereas she used to craft dizzying spectacles that were both insightful and emotional, she lays it all out here, bolds the key terms, and highlights the fluff.

 Little about MDNA is new or fresh or urgent

Lifeless, nonsensical, idiot: 'MDNA' is one of those iffy projects that should've never seen the daylight, and the reasons why is because Madonna sounds vocally horrible and it's just a bunch of EDM tracks glued together into an album as an appeal to keep her at the top. So far her worst record ever released. No originality, no risks being taken, no visionary thoughts... it just doesn't seem like a Madonna album at all thus it sounds like "whatever", she didn't even try and that's ... read more

É impressionante e até irônica, que as mesmas pessoas envolvidas na construção do majestoso "Ray of Light", podem estar envolvidos também em algo tão apocalíptico como "MDNA".

Após uma separação conturbada, Madonna resolveu expressar sua raiva e ressentimento em "MDNA", é possível entender a densidade de sentimentos expressados via a produção pesada EDM, contudo ... read more

Credo senhor, é irônico ver que uma das artistas que revolucionou a indústria fonográfica no geral se reduziu a isso.

Depois de uns meses,voltei a continuar a minha jornada na discorografia da rainha do pop e tô achando difícil. Praticamente, todas as faixas eu achei insuportáveis, entregando aquele pop EDM da forma mais genérica o possível e quase explodindo os ouvidos de tanto barulho (não recomendo ouvir isso com fone de ... read more

maybe this hasn’t clicked for me yet but i literally like every madonna album except for this one. it feels like manufactured formulaic pop music, it doesn’t feel original at all and is almost impossible to get through. there are a few tracks that i was bopping my head to, but the album as a whole did not age well.

overhated is not that bad

Si habían buenas ideas, de ahí, casi todas las canciones sobre producidas hasta el hartazgo, la época en la que Madonna estaba más sorda que nunca
