-Check this out from Wikipedia, on Radiohead's album "Ok, Computer":
The album also contains several references to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams:
The title of the song "Paranoid Android" comes from the nickname of the depressed robot Marvin.
In the above song, the lyrics "when I am king, you will be first against the wall" echoes a similar line in the books, stating the Cybernetics Cooperation would "be the first against the wall when the revolution comes".
The title of the album likely came from a line in the book where one of the characters says "Ok, computer" to Eddie the computer.

...Jay-Z's Black Album came out in 2003. Compare with Metallica's Black Album, which came out in 1991. You fail.

Metallica's so-called "Black Album" isn't called "Black Album". It's called "Metallica".
I win.

That's a good point. But it's pretty much known as Black Album.
