Madonna: Avant-Garde Icon
This is not only true genius, a woman in total control in an impossible business, or a massive talent, but a woman who performs from her very being. Just watch her when she performs in concert. Look at her face when she sings, her throat quivering in emotion and feeling, the sparkle in her eyes, the glow in her skin. Maybe she is thinking about all her successes, and this inspires her, or maybe not. Madonna may want to stay on top of her game, but she has nothing to prove, she has showed the world her immense range of talent and delivered the goods ten fold. Madonna's sense of discipline comes from a place of true devotion to the work itself, and to prove to herself what she can do. That is how she grows as a person. No apologies and no bull. Dancers can relate to Madonna, singers can identify with her abilities, musicians, rich, poor, philanthropists, gay, straight, people of all ages, many have been affected by her, and why? Because she is avant-garde. She is that rare form of artist that has lasted, not only because of so-called reinventing, but because of who she is throughout her life in various forms and incantations of spotlight. She is timeless and classic, yet truly modern, her ability to go through the revolving door of change as effortless as her dance steps. One could leave off there, but many would like to argue this simple essay. Why?
Out of misunderstanding, dislike of her music, or her controversial approach throughout the years, but most obviously plain, old fashioned jealousy of her phenomenal success. People don't have to like her, but don't discredit the artist. She wouldn't have lasted this long if she didn't inspire, and that's what is most important, aside from the fact that her music makes me want to dance and sing, get up and do my thing, period.
