comment
New Sound Album: But, of course! In this case, the music is heavily influenced by hip hop and contemporary R&B, with a heavy dose of techno and trip hop in "Bedtime Story."

Take That, Critics!: "Human Nature" is one against her critics, namely for her more suggestive material in her music and performances.

comment
New Jack Swing: Like Erotica, it doesn't fully embrace the genre, but takes obvious cues from it and mixed it with techno. Unsurprising, since all of the album's producers (listed in the Record Producer entry below) crafted several new jack hits for TLC, Bobby Brown, Mary J. Blige & Michael Jackson, among several others.

Double Standard: "Human Nature" outlines one about females not having the liberty to express themselves sexually. In the video, it's shown through Madonna and performers dressed up in leather and BDSM gear.

Shout-Out: The music video for "Bedtime Story" features several scenes that recreate shots from The Color of Pomegranates. "Sanctuary" samples "Watermelon Man" from Herbie Hancock's album Head Hunters.
