Go To

Basic Trope: An album titled after the artist who released it.

  • Straight: Poppy Stardom releases an album titled Poppy Stardom.
  • Exaggerated:
    • All of Poppy Stardom's albums have titles like Poppy Stardom VII.
    • All the songs on Poppy Stardom have "Poppy Stardom" in the title.
  • Downplayed:
    • A partially eponymous album, e.g. Poppy Stardom's Party or Poppy.
    • The Tropers, a group fronted by Poppy Stardom, releases an album titled Poppy Stardom.
  • Justified: It's a Concept Album about Poppy's life.
  • Inverted:
    • Poppy titles one of her albums after another artist.
    • Alice renamed herself after her Breakthrough Hit Poppy Stardom
  • Subverted:
    • "Poppy Stardom" is just a Working Title.
    • "Poppy Stardom" is just the Fan Nickname of Poppy Stardom's "Totally Extravagant Musical Smorgasbord"
  • Double Subverted:
  • Parodied:
    • Self-Titled Album
    • Poppy Stardom: I Couldn't Think of a Title for This Album, So I Named It After Myself
    • Poppy Stardom: The Obligatory "More Personal" Album
    • Poppy is such an egomaniac that all her albums are titled Poppy Stardom (not even using numbers to differentiate between them), all her songs are titled "Poppy Stardom", and her lyrics consist of nothing but stuff like "Poppy Stardom, Pop-Poppy Stardom".
    • Poppy releases multiple self-titled albums, each of which misspells her name in a different way.
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted: ???
  • Enforced: "Let's make sure everyone remembers Poppy Stardom's name!"
  • Lampshaded: ???
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: ???
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
