HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Madonna debuted her brand new single, "4 Minutes," on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show Monday morning.
On the track, which is produced by Timbaland, the 49-year-old pop star joined forces with Justin Timberlake. Last week, the "SexyBack" singer inducted Madonna into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The "Material Girl" recently sang the praises of Timberlake for helping out on her upcoming album "Hard Candy."
"I really enjoy writing with Justin," she says in the latest issue of Interview magazine. "We kind of had psychoanalytic sessions whenever we wrote songs.
"We'd sit down and start talking about situations. And then we'd start talking about issues or problems or relationships with people. That was the only way, because you know, writing together with somebody is very intimate."
Madonna added that she clicked right away with the 27-year-old star.
"He's open and he's got talent," Madonna says of Timberlake. "He's a songwriter. I haven't worked with a lot of songwriters where I'm instantly connected and start riffing and playing with the rhythm of the words."
"He's as interested in rhythm of words as the meaning of words," she added. "I enjoyed that process with him."
