Produced by Stuart Price, the collaboration between Madonna and Charli is a celebration of the fearless beginnings and influences that shaped each artist’s singular paths and led to distinctive new track, channeling the spirit of Madonna’s origin-story hit single.
Danceteria Afterhours follows Madonna and Charli’s Club Confessions party with Saint Laurent during Paris Fashion Week, and a series of playful social media exchanges between the two artists that have since fueled speculation about a potential musical speculation.
The CDs will ship in early november while the new Afterhours Mix drops September 24 at 6 PM PST / 9 PM EST
Danceteria is the latest single from Madonna’s widely acclaimed No.1 album, Confessions II. Critics and listeners alike have particularly praised the album’s deeply personal themes – exploring love, trauma, loss, betrayal and healing. At its core, Confessions II reinforces Madonna’s enduring belief that dance music is far from superficial: the dance floor is a lifeline, a place for escapism, connection and survival. Variety hailed the record as “her best album in decades.” Pitchfork declared Madonna is in “peak form” and calling the album a “genuinely vital addition to her canon.” Rolling Stone highlighted the album’s musical consistency, calling it “a 64-minute nonstop groove that flows like a perfect club DJ set.”
Up next, Madonna is set to open the MTV Video Music Awards this Sunday with her
first performance at the show in 23 years. This will also mark her fifth performance at the VMAs – more than any other artist in the show’s history. Madonna leads this year’s field with a career high 13 nominations. Since opening the very first VMA ceremony,
Madonna has delivered some of the show’s most provocative, talked about performances and unforgettable moments which have helped define the VMAs.
