How did Madonna’s unreleased demo recordings leak out?
In most of the cases like this, the leaks are a inside job but after the massive hack attack on Sony, Madonna suspects a hack attack. Madonna gave an interview to Guardian on Sunday just two days after the preponed release of the tracks. In the interview Madonna says, “she was “living in a state of terror” following the leak, adding that there was “a big possibility” they were the result of her personal computer being hacked.” She added, “Obviously there is a person, or a group of people behind this that were essentially terrorising me. I don’t want to sound alarming, but certainly that’s how I felt. It’s one thing if someone comes into your house and steals a painting off your wall: that’s also a violation, but, your work, as an artist, that’s devastating.” Madonna has reasons to believe it was work of hackers because in addition to the demo versions, certain photographs taken for the promo of the album were also leaked. Madonna said that the some of the tracks were records many months ago. In the meantime her manager, Guy Oseary sought to take help of her fans via Twitter to find the culprits. “Obviously there is a person, or a group of people behind this that were essentially terrorising me. I don’t want to sound alarming, but certainly that’s how I felt. It’s one thing if someone comes into your house and steals a painting off your wall: that’s also a violation, but, your work, as an artist, that’s devastating.” “I’m an artistic person, I’m very expressive. I’m sorry if words alarm people, but that’s what it felt like. It was not a consensual agreement. I did not say ‘hey, here’s my music, and it’s finished.’ It was theft.”
Hope Madonna and her manager find the culprits real soon as the leaks and further preponement of albums may cause huge financial loss to her. The ‘Rebel Heart’ however seems to be doing pretty well.
