MAKI GOTO is a SWEET BLACK Diamond in her 3rd thread
 

Woot it's time for a new thread

http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B002FLIKEU/

hehe i found this on a korean blog

LoL @ Juicy using my quotation.

Thanks for your info, but why Korean?

it's funny because it says rady-lise. :)

Lady-Rise sounds more plausible.

I am not living in Mars, probably that's why I don't know what Rady-lise means.

I'm so happy to know she is releasing a new album ^^ I think I'll get it on christmas though

I hope this means it will be the end of her sweet black releases, and she starts to release under Maki Goto. so yeah it's a possibility she will continue to release under sweet black..but i hope not :angel

It doesn't mean anything, it's just a funny mistake xD

i almost forgot about maki! :no shame on me
so she's having a new album? is there a tracklist yet?

I guess it's not too bad if she continues with SWEET BLACK; at least we're getting physical releases now. :)

Finally my prayers have been answered...I hope at least 3 of the Sweet Black songs make it on the album, the first 3 releases from Sweet Black grew on me because it had been FOREVER since we had something new from Gomaki!!! I can't wait for the album though!!!

YESSSS. i'm excited for her mini album! :D

i've liked all the SWEET BLACK songs thus far.

The preorder pages are up at CD Japan:

RZCD-46279 [CD+DVD] w/ booklet, limited edition
RZCD-46280 [CD+DVD]

I hope Avex doesn't do something bogus and make the DVD content different for each release. It wouldn't surprise me if they did though since the limited edition has it's own catalog number. :P

oh it's a good news.
Do you know the date of out?

^ September 16th, 2009

more info here ^^

^ YAY! It's not so far away!

Arrgh, no CD only version?

Great news about the mini-album! I hope after this she's finally allowed to do her own stuff.

Preorder pages are up at YesAsia:

RZCD-46279 [CD+DVD+BOOKLET] -Limited Edition-
RZCD-46280 [CD+DVD] -Normal Edition-

The price isn't that bad for YesAsia, $35.75 USD for the limited edition and $29.25 USD for the normal edition, but I expect those will go up once the album release date gets closer. :P

oh ! i can't wait. i'm gonna buy limited edition <3
i'm hoping for good covers.

September?! -_-;;;

Well then they have plenty of time to add quality new songs!

I heard that Erica S who drew the pictures in the cm for Lady Rise is doing this cover and booklet.

I don't want drawings I want Maki! :no

Me too! I don't think her drawings are suitable for an album cover. They look nice for a manga setting but it's looks weird. Kinda like that one drawing for Ayu's RULE.

Here's that CM.

I got an email from CDJapan with some more info about the new mini-album:

SWEET BLACK feat.MAKI GOTO
Sweet Black (Title subject to change) [CD+DVD] [w/ Booklet, Limited Edition] (CDA)
Price: Yen- 3000, US$(32.51) Release Date: 16-Sep-2009

Assuming this:
01. Fly away PV
02. Lady-Rise PV
03. with... PV
04. Plastic Lover PV

One new PV. Oh well, just means higher quality PVs of the previous three.

Wow, a SWEET BLACK feat. MAKI GOTO mini album?! This basically means a Maki Goto mini album! YAY!

OMG A NEW ALBUMM???? :thud :thud this made my day!!

RADIO RIP OF PLASTIC LOVER

I like it a lot =o!!

i love the sound of plastic lover! MAKI has just made it up into my top 3 favorite artists :yes her music is just awesome

Oh man! She must be butter, cuz she's on a roll!

I want the pv NOWWW

also that radio rip can potentially be the club mix that's appearing on the latest house nation album.

Liking how diverse the mini-album seems to be based on 4 known songs.

^ you know they are 8 songs in total, right?

Love the radio rip! She sounds hot!

i love the PLASTIC LOVER :yes
any news of the covers or the title of the album ?

I like how club sounding PLASTIC LOVER sounds! :D

PLasitic lover sounds really nice!

Plastic Lover sounds amazing. Cannot wait for the full song!

I'm loving Plastic Lover!! Cannot wait to hear it in full!

Wow, the preview sounds great! :D

^ You wouldn't have to, there's some info on it on the first page of this one.

I really want to get the album, but I'm kinda strained for money, especially since Momusu's 40th single is one I really want to buy. And Plastic Lover is epic <3

I meant known as the songs that are for sure the only ones we have heard and gonna be on the mini-album..

:love

I WANT TO HEAR CRAZY IN LOVE

HAWTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Damn, Maki's looking older and more mature with each new pic. :tired

Maki is looking PRETTY :love2 i hope that her mini album's cover is that good too.

large cover

^ Ooo, Maki's lookin' sexy! Can't wait to hear the song! :D

CRAZY IN LOVE

the computer i'm on atm doesn't have sound :dead

It's alright. I don't like it as much as the "Plastic Lover" preview!

^ The song is :luv2 Awesome :luv2. It's not as fast as I thought it'd be, but it's really catchy and awesome sounding. Maki's really fitting into avex well. I'm crazy in love with this song. :heart

Aww, so beautiful.

Maki is a woman now. :heart

This isn't really news, but Reina Tanaka (from Morning Musume) has apparently been listening to Maki's 3rd Station a lot and even played Station during her radio show segment on FIVE STARS: http://od-radio.blogspot.com/2009/07...95-090722.html

Maki is sexy in all the right ways. :heart

Wow, Crazy in Love sounds great! :D

Finally got a chance to listen to CRAZY IN LOVE and it's my least favorite song she has done in avex so far. It kinda sounds like a worse version of keri hilson's song "knock you down" :( my mind might change once I hear a HQ rip.

I like both new songs! :luv2

she looks so awesome. make up does amazing things, right? :)

smoky eyes are the best-looking on Maki...and Koda Kuu <3

I like the previews for both songs! Is hear me gonna be in the mini-album?

Probably not since Hear Me is not a Sweet Black production.

I'm gonna wait until I hear the full versions. The previews didn't do much for me right now.

these were taken by a fan from HK who went to the final House nation live

and the lyrics to CRAZY IN LOVE
http://i27.tinypic.com/hukdgo.jpg

where is that cd rip of it :(

Wow...I got that same vibe...lol

I LOVE Crazy in love. It's so good! way better than Keri Hilson's song, which I cannot stand.

I like the song :)

I LOVE MAKI. i want 2 see pv 4 PLASTIC LOVER

LOL, Maki is wearing a little hat. :P

Lovely pics :heart I'm really dying for the CD rips to leak ;__;

I just noticed that! Hard to see cuz of the background. It feels like that trend started when Namie started wearing them, and then they popped up all over the place

Something for the SPLASH festival she is performing at, I can't remember when the date is.

also posted 320k rip of crazy in love @ the download section :yes

love the new picture :luv2

^ I want a poster of this!! :love

I'm excited for maki's new mini-album!! ^__^

that pic reminds me of her H!P days, it's good tho :yes

cover?

http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/5...0226702964.jpg

klaxon at jpm posted this, it looks cool

crazy in love is such a rip off of "knocks you down" but i absolutely love it.. the lyrics are so cute.

it's been on repeat all morning

That would make an awesome cover, actually! :D

^ It does have the SWEET BLACK logo.

so this would probably be the cover for the regular version, i think the limited was being drawn by that girl whose name i forget :think that would make a pretty good cover. official announcement plz :colorjump

oh we're getting two covers for it? cool but i'll probably like this one more if the other is drawn :laugh

ya, i hope we get an announcement soon with tracklisting and stuffs :yes

I heart that cover if it is real.

Oh! Another SWEET BLACK song?

TEAR DROPS:

Maki is crazy involved in so many songs lately!

Didn't she write the lyrics to all the Sweet Black songs?

TEAR DROPS sounds really good! This album is shaping up to be my favorite of 09...:luv2

Also CRAZY IN LOVE has grown on me a lot after hearing it in hq.

omfg, i loved the probable cover! looks amazing. :love
and i loved 'TEAR DROPS' too. :luv2:

QUEEN BEE? :spazzed:spazzed

disappointed that there is no new pv though

I just got my MAKI GOTO MAIL MAGAZINE and I was so excited to see the tracklist! Can't wait for this release =D

Maki ;____; You're doing so well for yourself. I'm so proud of Maki XD The cover is amazing, TEAR DROPS is amazing (I thought it was the full song until they started talking half-way through and got so pissed off xD It sounds amazing so far, honestly), and I've had CRAZY IN LOVE on repeat for most of the day.

It's also pretty cool to see Maki doing so many collabs :D Really getting her name out there and stuff. I hope that one of the 3 new songs or a future song might be a bit more poppy-sounding... I love Maki's cool, mature sound, but I've been obsessed with BLUE ISLAND recently and kinda miss her genki Pop stuff XD like Yaruki! IT'S EASY, Rairai Kofoku, etc. Idk what the chances are of getting songs like that anymore, but I definitely wouldn't mind ^^;

oh, i loved the tracklist. 'queen bee' *-*
i hope the mini-album have good sales.

What the hell...kinda pissed here cause I assumed Plastic Lover would get a pv to go on the album... :(, oh well by the looks of the tracklist I like it, hopefully after that maybe 3-4 months or so she'll release a single with Hear Me...tired of waiting for that song already!!!

cool news :yes

TEAR DROPS sounds great! :D

Can't wait to hear the rest and see the "Mixi Drama".

http://i32.tinypic.com/28wmfl4.jpg
Bigger cover of the regular version :love:luv2

^ A-M-A-Z-I-N-G :love

Maki looks sooooo pretty!!

there's so much going on in that cover but it works in a good way.. now i really think avex is screwing with ayumi after seeing her sunrise covers and seeing these for maki :laugh

I think the cover is a little too busy...but overall it's really pretty =] Could have been much worse so I'm happy

I love this cover so much =o!
