A snippet of a new Madonna song, rumoured to be titled “Rebel Heart,” leaked to the Internet on Thursday.
Madonna’s publicist had no comment about the leak, but the diva’s manager, Guy Oseary, tweeted, “I would be grateful to any Madonna fans that can assist us in finding those responsible for the leak. We appreciate your help.”
About 40 seconds of the dance-meets-acoustic track materialised with Madonna singing, “I’ve spent some time as a narcissist, hearing the others say ‘look at you, look at you.’ Trying to be so provocative, I said, ‘Oh yeah, that was me. All the things I did just to be seen.’”
It’s assumed the song is titled “Rebel Heart,” as Madonna is heard singing the phrase at one point in the snippet, and because she used the #RebelHeart hashtag on her Instagram for months. The song might be a co-production with Avicii, as Madonna used the #RebelHeart hashtag in a photo of her with him and his team nine months ago.
It’s unknown if the song clip is from a demo version of the song or a recording of a finished track as the audio quality of the snippet is questionable — it sounds like it was recorded through speakers.
