Album & artist
ALBUM

Erotica (1992)

Erotica, her fifth studio album, came out in October 1992 alongside her explicit photography book Sex, both marking the launch of her own multimedia company, Maverick. Produced largely with Shep Pettibone and André Betts, the record explored themes of sex and desire through a hi-NRG and house-influenced sound, and was seen as a deliberate provocation during the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis.

Artist

Madonna

Madonna (born Madonna Louise Ciccone in 1958) grew up in Michigan and moved to New York City in the late 1970s to pursue dance before breaking through as a pop artist in 1983. She has spent decades reshaping pop music, moving from danceable radio hits to techno, electronica, and dance-floor club sounds across more than a dozen albums. Her work consistently engages with social, sexual, and political themes, and she has had as much impact on music video and visual culture as on recorded music.
