I've long felt that the seventh album - if an artist is lucky enough to get that far - is a pivotal moment. Sometimes it's the perfect time for a sonic and aesthetic reinvention, a la U2's glammy 1991 album (and my favorite in its discography) Achtung Baby. It can also be an opportunity for a pop star to show off newfound maturity, as Madonna did on her great seventh studio album, Ray of Light.
