By Jade Madonna refuses to believe her time has passed, that she’s a has-been. Everybody inside knows she won’t go out with a greatest hits show. But that’s what you need to sell stadiums, that’s what you need to get oldsters to leave home and spend a fortune.

By Jade The tour is the first for Madonna since she announced a $120 million partnership with Live Nation in which the promoter is to participate financially in nearly every aspect of the pop star’s career. The album she is promoting, “Hard Candy,” is the last under her record contract with Warner...

By Jade • Besides, with an album loaded with singles that seem ripe for American radio, “Hard Candy” may have a healthy shelf life.

By Jade Many have commented on how obvious Madonna’s choice of producers is on “Hard Candy”, but far too little has been written about how she has made them raise their game.

By Jade The first single, “4 Minutes,” finds Madonna overwhelmed by Timbaland’s production and Timberlake’s vocals. It’s a good song, but it’s not really hers. She could be one of any number of singers in Timbaland’s stable, from Nelly Furtado on down.

By Jade Much better is the album’s lead single, “4 Minutes,” which Madonna co-wrote with Timbaland, Hills and Justin Timberlake, who also makes a vocal cameo.

By Jade All through her career, it has been impossible to divorce Madonna’s music from her image, as they feed off each other to the point where it’s hard to tell which came first, the concept or the songs. Glancing at the aggressively ugly cover to Hard Candy — its blistering pinks and assaultive le...

By Jade From the opening title track of Hard Candy, it sounds as if one of the great British cultural legacies she has readily clasped to her bosom is that of the Carry On movie. With a phalanx of heavy hitters – Timbaland, Kanye West and Justin Timberlake – onside, Hard Candy takes no chances.

By Jade So it seems. It’s one of a dozen cuts on her Hard Candy disc, out Tuesday with assists from Justin Timberlake, Timbaland and Pharrell Williams.
