The Guinness World Record officially recertified her as the best selling female artist with 400 million sales, please correct it. You should also talk about the fact, that The Weeknd, Madonna - Popular became her 64th top 10 UK hit, and her first top 10 since 2009 (4 Minutes), and that its her first Hot 100 hit since 2015 (Bitch I'm Madonna). And there's not a single mention about how Frozen On Fire and Back That Up To The Beat went viral on TikTok. Also mention that Finnaly Enough Love charted for a whole year in the UK. Thank you. 2A02:AB88:2488:6280:C053:B2BB:684F:B069 (talk) 20:05, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello there, Madonna has 400 million records sold as certified by the Guinness World Records. Please change this to reflect accuracy. Thanks for looking into this! 😄
It is my opinion that Madonna's lead sentence should include producer, as she has produced every track on every album of hers since 1986, which marks 33~ years of her producing every song on every album of hers since her third record. This is very notable and should be included in her lead sentence.
Not sure how relevant the Babyface quote is or how much weight that carries for including producer here. As far as I can tell, it was previously omitted because Madonna doesn't appear to get as much recognition for this as singing, movies, or even business ventures. However, over 30 years of production work is quite a feat, and I can't think of anybody else who consistently produced or co-produced their own tracks for that long.

I would argue that notability wise, her work as a producer is more notable to her career than her acting, as her acting is mainly notable for the many misses in her film career. Whereas people hold her music in pretty high regard PHShanghai | they/them (talk) 04:37, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
