Last week the track Champagne Rose surfaced from Quavo\u2019s solo debut album <strong><em>Quavo Huncho<\/em><\/strong>. Cardi B along with Madonna and Quavo appeared on the song. On paper the combination looks out of left field but Madonna after all these years is still able to assimilate with the younger generation. During her career she has collaborated with quite a few hip hop producers and artists.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Quavo \u2013 Champagne Rose feat.

They worked on a version of\u201d I\u2019d Rather Be Your Lover\u201d which was intended for her 1994 album <strong><em>Bedtime Stories<\/em><\/strong>. The song did not see the light of day due to legal issues 2Pac was contending with at the time. The song was produced by Dave Hall who during his career would work with the likes of Heavy D, Father MC, Kurupt, and Brand Nubian. The Isley Brother\u2019s sample of \u201cIt\u2019s Your Thing\u201d is the same one famously used in Brand Nubian\u2019s classic track \u201cPunks Jump Up to Get Beat Down\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Madonna \u2013I\u2019d Rather Be Your Lover feat. 2pac (prod. by Dave Hall)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gAtuKRpxt4k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In 2008 Madonna released the album Hard Candy. The majority of the production was collectively handled by The Neptunes, Timbaland, and Danja. The lead single \u201c4 Minutes\u201d produced by Timbaland had a remix which included Flo Rida. Another track to mention is \u201cBeat Goes On\u201d which was produced by the Neptunes and featured Kanye West.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Madonna &#8211; 4 Minutes feat.

The tracks were titled \u201cVeni Vidi Vici\u201d and \u201cIconic\u201d. It is her attitude, \u201chip hop edge\u201d that has kept Madonna relevant after all these years. Why artists from the hip hop community will work with her. If you are a hip hop artist that wants to be taken seriously typically you would avoid working with a pop artist due to the stigma. With Madonna that is not the case.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Madonna \u2013 Veni Vidi Vici feat.
