Madonna. Mike Tyson. Chance The Rapper. Collabs don't come much bigger, or stranger, than this.
Sadly, it's only a sample of Tyson making a blustery speech, and not the boxing wildcard crooning with Madge á la Robbie and Nicole on "Kids"; how great would that have been?
"Iconic" sees dubstep drops and loose splurgy basslines, and the most heinous use of 'ironic' since Alanis Morrisette. Chance's verse fortunately lifts the track from sounding too dated. Despite the misguided, wanton use of 2009 dance hallmarks, it's a pretty explosive pop number. Iconic? Time will tell.
It'll feature on Madonna's upcoming Rebel Heart LP.
Have a listen below.
