Madonna, the best-selling female artist of all time, announced Thursday that she will release a new dance music album next year.
The 67-year-old singer is returning to Warner Records, the label behind her early hits such as Like a Virgin and Holiday in the 1980s. She had left Warner in 2007 after signing a major contract with Live Nation Records.
“I am happy to be reunited and look forward to the future, making music, doing the unexpected, and perhaps provoking a few needed conversations,” the seven-time Grammy winner said in a statement. The upcoming album will be her first studio release in seven years.
The record will be produced by Stuart Price, the DJ and songwriter who collaborated with her on Confessions on a Dance Floor in 2005.
“We are honored to welcome Madonna back home to Warner Records. Madonna isn’t just an artist — she’s the blueprint, the rule-breaker, the ultimate cultural juggernaut,” said Tom Corson and Aaron Bay-Schuck, co-chairmen of Warner Records.
Among her many achievements, Madonna was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2008 and has sold more than 400 million records worldwide.
