Prince & Mononeon - Black is the New Black

This will probay be moved to associated artists, but in this article Mononeon mentions that the music he did with Prince was going to go an album titled Black is the New Black. Don't know if it will ever be released.

It's stupid, like all those "this is the new that" sayings we've heared lately. "Orange is the new black." What does that say? What does that mean? Nothing! It's nonsense. And saying "black is the new black" is even bigger nonsense. What was the old black then? Also black? It's silly.

I guess it's saying Black is still black. Then that's just me.

I believe it started as a fashion statement. Ie, "Black" was the trendy color for clothing, and then the next year it was Orange, therefore "Orange is the new black".

It's also the name of a great TV series, set in a women's prison. So as the title of the show it's a tongue in cheek reference to the color of the prison jumpsuits.

Possibly connected 2 that 'Gay is the new black' stuf.
