Madonna’s estranged brother Chris Ciccone isn’t sure if it's a good idea for the superstar's daughter Lourdes to launch a music career like her famous mom.

The Material Mom, 52, has collaborated with her 14-year--old daughter to record the song It’s So Cool, which may appear on her next album or on the soundtrack to her new movie about US socialite Wallis Simpson and her relationship with Edward VIII.

Ciccone - who mentors new music artists for his management firm The Ciccone Factory - has lost some respect for Lady Gaga who has used Madonna as a role model for her career.

He previously told our website that he could see a lot of similarities between the two artists but felt that Gaga's strong image was in danger of alienating her fans.

But the copy-cat new single Born This Way has left him scratching his head in disbelief.

Ciccone has had very little contact with Madonna since he penned his 2008 best seller Life With My Sister Madonna.

It remains to be seen if music fans buy or download Lady Gaga's controversial new song.

Madonna's original 1989 hit Express Yourself from her Like A Prayer album reached number two on the Billboard charts and was a major hit around the world.
