Madonna Louise Ciccone, professionally known as Madonna, is an American singer, entertainer, songwriter, actress, producer, director and businesswoman. Born on August 16, 1958 in Bay City, Michigan. She signed with a record label in 1982 and released her debut album the following year. Madonna has since become one of the most successful recording artists of all time. With over 300 million records sold worldwide, she holds the title for best-selling female artist according to Guinness World Records.

Madonna's talent and influence have earned her numerous accolades throughout her career. In her first year of eligibility, she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. VH1 ranked her at number one on their list of 100 Greatest Women in Music. Additionally, Billboard named her the second greatest Hot 100 artist of all time (behind only The Beatles), solidifying her status as the most successful solo artist in American singles chart history.

With a diverse range of talents and achievements spanning music, film production and entrepreneurship, Madonna continues to be a trailblazer in the entertainment industry. Her impact on popular culture is undeniable and she remains an iconic figure for generations to come.

Madonna’s ground-breaking fifth studio album, Erotica, celebrates its 30th anniversary on 20th October 2022. In 1992, the album debuted at the top of charts around the world and has gone on to sell more than six million copies. To celebrate the anniversary, a limited edition 12” vinyl picture disc featuring the album’s title track will finally see the light of day after a three-decade delay.

Originally scheduled for release during the fall of 1992, the picture disc features a colourized version of the famous “toe sucking” photo taken from Madonna’s Sex book, which was released the same week as the Erotica album. However, the picture disc was cancelled unexpectedly just ahead of release, as the visual was considered too explicit for in-store display back then. The manufactured copies were promptly destroyed, with only a few finding their way into the public’s hands, only adding to the infamous allure of the release. Now, after a 30-year wait, the “Erotica” picture disc is available.
