With producer extraordinaire James Fauntleroy at the helm, Mario released his long-awaited sixth studio album ‘Glad You Came‘ on Friday (December 13).

Led by the single ‘Space,’ the 13-track set – which serves as the follow-up to 2018’s critically acclaimed ‘Dancing Shadows‘ – comes as the R&B crooner’s first project under a new deal with Epic Records.

To celebrate the LP’s arrival to shelves, the 38-year-old treated music lovers to the official video for the soon-to-be fan favorite ‘Keep Going (Aaaaahhhhh).’

“You know I look deep in / Girl, you know we locked in / I release your stress ’cause I know you feel that pressure / Ah-ah-ah-ah / Seen this in my dream, it was you,” he relays on the song’s pre-chorus.
