Next Friday (7) Bruno Mars releases his new single, '24K Magic', the first preview of his third studio album, of which the name or release date is not yet known. This week the American musician announced on social networks that his new album is ready and that he hopes to release it very soon.
From his Instagram account last Monday (3) Mars stated: “I'm excited to announce that '24K Magic' will go on sale this coming Friday! You can say that it is my first single, but I prefer to say that it is an invitation to my party ».
Mars' third studio album is one of the most anticipated releases of 2016 and one of the great bets that Atlantic Records (Warner Music) maintains for the next few months. This new record project by Mars has been marked by extreme secrecy, since it has only transcended the collaboration of producer Skrillex, who in an interview for the North American press last June only detailed in this regard: “I'm not going to specify what I'm doing with Bruno sounds like, but I can say that what we're doing is very different from everything he's done so far, it's incredible. The material is on another level and does not sound like anything that has been produced before. "
Four years have passed since Mars released his last album, 'Unorthodox Jukebox' (2012), an album acclaimed by critics and the public that ended up being the fourth best-selling album in 2013 worldwide and which included hit songs such as 'Locked Out of Heaven' and 'Gorilla'.
About his return to the music scene, a few days ago Bruno Mars asked his followers on his Twitter account: "Do you think that I have been entertaining all this time or that I was carefully planning my return?"
