Madonna’s musical career
Louise Ciccone, better known by her stage name Madonna, was born on August 16, 1958. The vocalist earned her degree from the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre before starting her career as a backup singer and dancer in Patrick Hernandez’s group. On July 27, 1983, the singer issued her self-titled debut studio album. The album achieved significant chart success, peaking at number six on the UK album chart.
In contrast to many other artists, the vocalist firmly retained control over the aesthetic direction, production quality, and subjects of her songs beginning with her very first album. The singer released her second studio album, Like a Virgin, on November 12, 1984, after the commercial success of her debut studio effort. The album reached its highest point as the number-one album on the Billboard 200, German, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, and UK album charts, in that order.
On June 30, 1986, the singer released True Blue, her third studio album. The album reached its height as the number-one album on practically every major album chart, including the Billboard 200, Australian, Dutch, Canadian, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and UK charts.
On March 21, 1989, the pop singer released Like a Prayer, her fourth studio album. The album reached its pinnacle as the number-one album on the Billboard 200 album chart as well as the charts for albums in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK.
