As part of the agreement, Bilt will cover one month of studio rent for musicians currently leasing space at The Music Building, a rehearsal facility located at 584 Eighth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan where Madonna began her music career. The Music Building, founded in 1979, has served as a rehearsal space for New York-based artists for decades.
The collaboration also includes a Bilt-exclusive limited-edition vinyl of Confessions II featuring custom artwork and photography by Raphael Pavarotti, member-exclusive album release parties in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, and a special edition of Bilt’s Rent Free™ program, offering members the opportunity to win rent payments of up to $2,500.
Reflecting on her early years in New York, Madonna said:
“Artists arrive every day to New York, with a dream and more often than not with little else. As much as I struggled when I showed up here with nothing, I look back very fondly on this time in my life. The creativity, diversity and community of artists all supporting each other while having the freedom to experiment is something I would have never experienced in another place,” said Madonna.
Bilt Founder and CEO Ankur Jain said the partnership was designed to recognize the significance of The Music Building in Madonna’s career and support musicians currently working there.
“There are so few artists who have shaped New York the way Madonna has. She came to this city with next to nothing, and in building something extraordinary, she became part of its DNA. When we had the chance to work with her, we knew we had to honor that story — not just by celebrating the album, but by giving back to the building where she first found her sound. The Music Building has been a home to generations of artists who arrived in New York the same way she did: with big dreams and little else. We couldn't think of a more fitting way to mark this moment than making sure the artists in that building today don't have to choose between their rent and their art,” said Jain.
Confessions II is scheduled for release on July 3.
