Lola, who has been making waves in her own right as a model and musician, teased the track on her Instagram, sharing some poignant lyrics alongside a nostalgic photo of her and Madonna strolling through a park during her childhood.
Here’s a little taste of what to expect from ‘The Test’:
“Hand tenderly reaching to me
You are my reason to be
What I want, or look like
What I wear
All the clothes on my back
And what I attract
I trace the line of what you have sewn
Keep my own design
Make it a landscape
Make it alive
I know they tried to put us to the test
I’m not so different time is knocking on my doorstep
You show me your razor sharp laser vision
Real brave will make you feel kind of different.”
Madonna opened up about this collaboration in an interview with Interview magazine, revealing that the song was a significant step in healing their relationship. “For instance, the song I wrote with my daughter, Lola. She approached me about writing a song together as a way to heal our relationship,” she shared. This moment not only solidified their bond but also inspired Madonna to create the entire album.
Lola, who officially launched her solo music career under the stage name Lolahol in August 2022, is also featured in Confessions II – The Film. She recently released her own track, ‘T Shirt’, which dives deep into the complexities of relationships and self-discovery. “What a gift it is to channel those emotions through art… to process them and finally set them free,” she expressed on Instagram.
