Lady Gaga is almost ready to tell fans the title of her next album. Early on Friday morning she tweeted, "Exciting news little monsters! I've played my new record for my label and will be announcing my new Album Title in September!" It's unclear how far along she is in the recording process, but her co-manager, Vincent Herbert, recently told MTV News that the new album is an "insane, great record. She's on tour right now, but it's just going to be a great record. Look out for the unexpected when it comes to her. We're doing it on the road right now, so it's a little hard, but it's going to be great."

Bob Welch, an early member of Fleetwood Mac who went on to a successful solo career, died on Thursday of an apparent suicide. He was 66. Police said Welch's body was found by his wife Wendy with a single gunshot wound to the chest, and he had left a suicide note. Welch's former bandmate Mick Fleetwood told Reuters that the suicide was "incredibly out of character." "He was a very, very profoundly intelligent human being and always in good humor, which is why this is so unbelievably shocking," Fleetwood said. "He was a huge part of our history which sometimes gets forgotten ... mostly his legacy would be his songwriting abilities that he brought to Fleetwood Mac, which will survive all of us." Welch played guitar and was a vocalist with the band from 1971 to 1974, working on five of their early albums. Stevie Nicks also released a statement saying, "He was an amazing guitar player - he was funny, sweet - and he was smart. I'm so very sorry for his family and for the family of Fleetwood Mac."
