24K Magic is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Bruno Mars, released in November 2016 via Atlantic Records.
The follow-up to his second studio album Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), explores genres similar to those of its predecessor, such as soul and funk and R&B. Mars and his production team focused on capturing the R&B sound that was very popular in the 1990's, which he described on a radio interview as follows “it’s why I fell in love with music in the first place. I think this album has the spirit, we were listening to a lot of 90s music, you know, for inspiration. If you can see in the music video, everything: the fashion, the feeling; when it was okay to have a good time, it was okay to go out and look fabulous and ride a jet ski at the Bellagio hotel.”
The album was recorded between 2015 and 2016 and was produced by his newly formed production team Shampoo Press & Curl, consisting of Mars, Brody Brown and Philip Lawrence.
Mars collaborated with his musical hero Babyface on the final track on the album “Too Good To Say Goodbye”. The album kicks off with the first single “24K Magic” which instantly makes a mark with its luscious sound and danceable groove. The up-temp groove continues with “Chunky” with its catchy chorus and tight harmonies. The second single “That’s What I Like” continues the album’s R&B feel, which reached #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart, his seventh number one single. The third single released from the album is “Versace on the Floor” which is a lovely ballad.
The closing track “Too Good To Say Goodbye” is the standout track on the album for “The Captain”, with its lush production and soul soaking backing vocals, it takes the listener back to vintage R&B which has a new life unleashed in 2016. We can’t wait for a follow-up album.
The album peaked at #2 on the US Billboard 200 Albums chart and #3 in Australia and #3 in the UK.
Check out a couple of tracks: “24K Magic”; “Chunky”; “That’s What I Like”; Versace On The Floor” and “Too Good To Say Goodbye”.
