Sidetracked with Annie and Nick - Madonna’s Week in Music, Charli Declares the Dancefloor Dead, and Olivia Rodrigo

Download Madonna’s Week in Music, Charli Declares the Dancefloor Dead, and Olivia Rodrigo

Annie and Nick discuss the most Madonna week in music – the album announcement, the new song, the Coachella performance, and the theft. Sidetracked fans will know how much Madonna means to Nick...so why does he have beef with her this week?

Elsewhere, Justin Bieber and Billie Eilish showed us what they’re worth at Coachella Weekend 2, Olivia Rodrigo has a brilliant new song, and Annie has some thoughts on the link between bad fathers and great music artists. Plus, Charli XCX has declared the dancefloor dead, but was she being serious?
