Where are you located?

In NYC we use black tar to seal the roof, but then it is painted silver or white. You almost never see an actual black or dark colored roof.

I live in Florida and see black and dark brown tar shingles installed at least 95% of the time. I even live in a hurricane-prone area and it's surprisingly rare to see a metal roof installed.
