Having already conquered radio, charts, and stages by their lonesome, GRAMMY winners Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak figured it was best to double that domination by joining forces.
Details inside:
Surprising fans Friday (February 26) with news of a collaborative album, the pair have assembled under the moniker Silk Sonic and are releasing an effort named in honor of the band.
Announced on Mars’ official Twitter, the 35-year-old said:
“We locked in and made an album. The band’s called Silk Sonic. First song drops next Friday 3/5.”
The opus – which marks Mars’ first body of work since the award-winning ’24K Magic’ (2016) – lists legendary Funk master Bootsy Collins as a signed on “special guest host.”
Fans familiar with Mars and .Paak know the duo have a longstanding relationship as Anderson opened for the ‘Uptown Funk’ star on the European leg of his ’24K Magic’ world tour in 2017.
The weeknd, ur reign as queen is OVER.
Is bruno Mars black? He keep stealing from black people’s culture like ariana and nobody says anything
He is Puerto Rican & Filipino.
And where have you been? People always mention his cultural appropriation but most don’t care because he’s talented. Black legends also co-sign him.
Worry about Camila eating crow.
Not a f******* stan talking ?
Ur faves about to get dropped by RCA records. Lol worry about that
STFU flopmami💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿 A curse is born 🤳🏿🤳🏿 Flop is a flop
He acknowledges those black artists n producers who influence him that r Sometimes unsung by the black community Itself n doesn’t try to come off like he’s creating something new
MAYBE THE same reason Beyoncé , Alicia Keys and Mariah Carey make Spanish songs and they aren’t Latino or Hispanic!!! BECAUSE ITS FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND MUSIC 🎶 YOU HAVE THE CHOICE TO CHANGE THE CHANNEL ANYTIME 🙃
