Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })★ (pronounced Blackstar) is the twenty-sixth and final studio album by David Bowie. It was released January 8th, 2016 (Bowie's 69th birthday), two days before his passing. The album reflects a somewhat new sound for Bowie, being influenced by avant-garde jazz, Progressive Rock, experimental hip-hop acts such as Death Grips and Kendrick Lamar, and electronic acts such as Boards of Canada. Already strongly received upon its release, the album became even more rapturously received after the singer's death, which made evident additional layers of meaning. The record has also been quite commercially successful, selling hundreds of thousands of copies in its first week of release. It débuted at #1 in a large number of countries throughout the world, becoming Bowie's first ever #1 album in the United States.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Not to be confused with the hip-hop duo consisting of Mos Def and Talib Kweli (the album's title is one word; the hip-hop duo's is two) or the fictional character Black★Star.
