New York Sun: Rapping weighs in on the Material Girl

An article in The New York Sun on Madonna's music career and her decision to incorporate rap into her new album, Hard Candy, quotes Elayne Rapping, professor of American studies and a pop culture expert. "Stars are over quicker than they used to be," she said. "There's gonna be a lot of one-hit wonders, but in terms of Madonna -- or Annie Lennox, for that matter, who made some amazing, well-done videos -- that's over now."
