Madison Love was an honoree at the 2024 Tisch Gala. She graduated with honors from NYU’s prestigious Clive Davis School of Recorded Music at Tisch School of the Arts. She made the Forbes 30 under 30 National and LA list for 2024. Rolling Stone Magazine featured her in the Top 25 Future of Music Issue (2021). So far, she’s had multiple number one Pop Radio hits, the first of which came before graduating. She also had a number-one Adult Contemporary radio hit that stayed on the charts for 37 weeks. She’s garnered over 12 billion streams worldwide to date. Madison has written for artists such as Selena Gomez, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, PINK, Gwen Stefani, Halsey, BLACKPINK, Megan Thee Stallion, Jennifer Lopez, Demi Lovato, and more. She’s written numerous songs for television and movies, including her most recent credit being a song in the blockbuster film Barbie (Grammy winner for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media). 

In 2021, to empower young artists to pursue their dreams, she created The Madison Love Future Fund to help support students in the Clive Davis Summer High School Program. It provides scholarship money for one high-achieving, high-need young artist per year and additional funds raised are directed toward top priorities at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music.
