Say what you want about Madonna, the woman has some serious cojones.

At 49 years old (why does everyone prematurely keep calling her "50"?!?) she is still proving that she can keep up with the youngest, hottest music acts out there. (If you haven't heard her latest single, "4 Minutes" featuring Timbaland and Justin Timberlake, it's hot!) From pop to rock to dance to flavors of hip-hop, the Queen of Pop is yet again proving that she can hang with the big boys...

... and in more ways than one.

Just an example of how she oh-so-stylishly continues to tell the world to go fuck themselves is how she presents herself: take no prisoners, offer no apologies. Already, she's had people slamming her based on the imagery from her new album as gross or too explicit "for a woman her age" and, yet, while the world is armed to the teeth to write her off as a washed up old lady, she still doesn't give a rat's ass.

God, I love that about her.

Hard Candy, Madonna's latest release, is due out on Tuesday - and our preliminary review only requires two words: fucking. awesome.

Don't believe me? Starting today, she's offering up the album for free on MySpace.

Like whatcha hear? (Betcha do!) Preorder it on Amazon.com - or check it out on iTunes. The official U.S. release date is Tuesday, April 29th.
