Mass Media Stars is the second album by the Italian progressive rock band Acqua Fragile.

[2] Dag Erik Asbjørnsen in Scented gardens of the mind compared Acqua Fragile's sound to Genesis, Yes and Crosby, Stills & Nash, combining Lanzetti's nasal voice with "majestic guitar licks" and three-part vocal harmonies.

[1] Augusto Croce in Italian prog commented that the album was similar to their first, but with slightly better production.

Two LPs [Acqua Fragile and Mass Media Stars] produced by PFM and it shows in their sound.

In 2018 Bernardo Lanzetti and Acqua Fragile accused the rapper Busta Rhymes of plagiarism because in "Genesis", the song that gives the title to his 2001 album, he used a sampling of "Cosmic Mind Affair", taken from Mass Media Stars, without declaring it and indeed attributing it to himself.
