LISTEN: Madonna's empowering LGBTQ Pride anthem 'I Rise'

Madonna has released an empowering and uplifting new song "I Rise," the second track of five songs to be released before her upcoming album, Madame X, debuts on June 14.

"I wrote 'I Rise' as a way of giving a voice to all marginalized people who feel they don't have the opportunity to speak their mind," Madonna said in a statement. "This year is the 50th anniversary of pride and I hope this song encourages all individuals to be who they are, to speak their minds and to love themselves."

GLAAD will honor the 60-year-old icon in New York on Saturday with its Advocate for Change Award at the 30th annual GLAAD Media Awards ceremony. Madonna is the second person — behind only Bill Clinton — and first woman to ever receive the recognition.
