Madonna returns in the next issue of MOJO magazine

The Queen of Popis back!

Published 21st Jan 2015

The Queen of Pop, Madonna is back – and she has done an exclusive interview with our friends over at MOJO.

The magazine has devoted 13 pages to a worldwide exclusive conducted last month in New York City.

The candid interview covers Madonna’s expansive career, from her early days in New York City circa 1982, to her 13th studio album ‘Rebel Heart’, which features collaborators such as Kanye West.

“I like that Kanye likes to push the envelope,” she told MOJO. “He hears music in a different and unique way. I think Diplo’s the same.

“I like people who think outside of the box ‘cos they take a song I’ve written that’s quite straightforward and pop, and deconstruct it, rip it apart and turn it into something else.”

This is the first time Madonna has covered MOJO magazine and she has posted the cover on her official Instagram account.

Phil Alexander, MOJO’s Editor-In-Chief, said: “Madonna is the biggest-selling female artist of all-time and yet few people have actually sat down and talked to her about the thing that excites her most – her music.

“At MOJO we’ve done just that in a piece that genuinely reveals how she works and what drives her. We hope MOJO’s cover story presents a unique view of one of modern music’s most iconic performers.”

She also talks openly about free music in the digital age, her faith, juggling motherhood and music, and the importance of rebellion in art.

Make sure you check out the full interview in MOJO magazine, which is on sale in the UK and online from Tuesday January 27th.

It will be available with a regular news-stand cover and a special subscriber-only cover (seen above).
