Tracy Chapman Talks Madonna
December 3rd, 2008 by Hannah

Tracy Chapman recently sat down for an interview with The Guardian. She talked about women in the industry saying “Is it harder for women in the industry in general? Definitely. I was trying to make a case for Madonna the other day, saying that she’s to be admired for her longevity in a genre that has mostly been for younger acts. Men are able to sustain a career into their 50s and 60s and still present themselves as sex symbols. With women on the other hand, people say, ‘Why doesn’t she retire?’ It’s just so unfair. So I have to give props to Madonna.”
