Producer Stuart Price has revealed that he initially turned down the opportunity to work with Madonna. He felt his background in dance music, which he described as potentially staying on "one note for 6 minutes," made him unsuited for the project. Price eventually became the musical director for Madonna's 2001 Drowned tour. Originally reported by MusicRadar.
