Lady Gaga has given a few new details about her upcoming, highly anticipated record "Artpop," including details about the album's cover and when that tracklist is due out.
According to Complex (via OhNoTheyDidnt), artist Jeff Koons has designed a sculpture for the "Artpop" artwork. "[Koons] is making a sculpture of me, and it's going to be my album cover," she said.
Little else is known about the cover of "Artpop," but in a recent Twitter chat, Gaga revealed that the piece is "very colorful" and her favorite album art to date. Gaga is expected to unveil the album cover for "Artpop" sometime in the next week or so.
The sculpture for her cover is not the first time Gaga has invoked Koons in her music. For her VMAs performance, the blue balls were a blatant reference to some of his most famous artwork, the gazing balls.
In other "Artpop" news, the tracklisting for Gaga's third studio album has seen a delayed release. According to the same Twitter Q&A that revealed the details about the album cover, the tracklist for "Artpop" was due out Sept. 29. However, that date has come and gone and there is no sign of an official list.
After some Little Monsters got antsy for the tracklist, Gaga took to her Twitter to explain its absence.

"I'm sorry the tracklisting is late monsters. A few more squirrels snuck into the ARTPOP tree. Don't worry it will be worth it!" she wrote on Sept. 30.
As of press time, there is no new release date for the "Artpop" tracklisting.
"Artpop" will be released Nov. 11.
