Kanye West was reportedly "jumping up and down on the soundboard" whilst producing a track titled 'Illuminati' for Madonna's album.
The singer was forced to rush-release six new tracks from forthcoming album 'Rebel Heart' on Saturday, December 20, following the leak of unfinished demos from the record.
Now she's spoken out about the creation of one of the songs included in the record, produced by Kanye.
Speaking to RollingStone.com she explained: "When I played a lot of my songs that were unproduced for Kanye, that song resonated with him. He loved the melody, and he was actually jumping up and down on the soundboard."
Name-checking stars in the song such as Lady Gaga and Britain's Queen Elizabeth, she was concerned that Kanye may have hurt himself when working on the tune.
"He literally stood on top of the mixing board -- we were worried he was going to hit his head on the ceiling, but he didn't. He ended up being very excited about that track, and then he added his spin to it, musically, and I love it. To me, he elevated the lyrics with the music. It's like a siren, alerting people."
She also spoke about the inspiration behind the track, because of the ignorance surrounding the real-life Illuminati.
"'Illuminati' was a song I'd written back in March or April. People are always using the word Illuminati but they're always referencing it in an incorrect way. People often accuse me of being a member of the Illuminati and I think in today's pop culture the Illuminati is perceived as a group of powerful, successful people who are working behind the scenes to control the universe. Not people with consciousness, not people who are enlightened."
