Posted September 3, 200717 yr Ok, my very own first thread here & I just wanted to ask u guys what u think of the rumored title for the new album, BlackStar. Cool or not cool? I say it's cool because she is doin r&b for this album & even tho she is not black, she did start out by doin black music. Also, I think it works because there's always this paradoxical thing about Madonna. So share with me ur opinions. :D
September 3, 200717 yr It sounds good, but It doesnt make the album sound exciting or good I agree with this. The title says nothing about the content :blink:
September 3, 200717 yr Author It sounds good, but It doesnt make the album sound exciting or good I guess u're right. There's no punch to it. I thought the same about the "Music" album. That title is so bland yet when I really think about it, because the word is associated with the name Madonna, suddenly it becomes grand & cheeky, if that makes any sense.
September 4, 200717 yr Blackstar is just a host of titles that are merly fan made! Another popular fan-made title going around a few weeks ago was 'Into the Darkness!' how bland :(
September 5, 200717 yr As a Black person myself, I think it is a bad idea. If she wants to appeal to everyone (blacks included) which is important with an R&B album, she should not use Blackstar. People will associate the name Blackstar will her trying to be black. Especially with just adopting a black child, there might be a backlash. Sad but true...I wouldn't care if she used that name, but it would cause alot of controversy...oh yeah, that is what Madge likes!! lol
September 5, 200717 yr Author Blackstar is just a host of titles that are merly fan made!At first I thought so too but then when I listened to The Beat Goes On, I noticed Pharell said "BlackStar" at 2:26 minutes into the song. :o I'm not lying, go listen to it. .....but it would cause alot of controversy...oh yeah, that is what Madge likes!! lol:lol: That may be her intention indeed! :D

September 5, 200717 yr oh wow your right :o Maybe someone saw that and made up the rumour, you never know. I also could be true though but like others said it's not really something interesting.
September 5, 200717 yr I agree with Jazz harmony, people will make lins between her adopttion and making black orientated music. Bad title and silly rumour! lol
