It's been a long and obstacle-filled road for Madonna's new album, Rebel Heart, but it's now finally up to stream legally on Spotify. Listen below.

The lyrics of the opening track, 'Living For Love', couldn't be more appropriate for the various setbacks the singer faced in the run-up to Rebel Heart's release. First she (rightfully) got in trouble for using doctored photos of black civil rights leaders as a promotion tool, and then the entire, unpolished album was leaked online - a trauma the singer compared to "rape" and "terrorism."

As if that wasn't enough, when Madonna was performing at the BRIT Awards last month, an over-zealous yank of her cape led to her falling hard down a small flight of steps. She's a veteran and a trouper though, and she got back up and gave new meaning to the lyrics, "Lifted me up, and watched me stumble / After the heartache, I'm gonna carry on."

The album's Spotify stream comes on a day that yet more contentious Madonna quotes have surfaced - this time she's told the New York Daily News, "Kanye is the black Madonna."
