Silk Sonic’s debut album is set to come out on November 12th, and it will have to face some tough competition on the charts. Taylor Swift is also releasing the re-recorded version of her fourth studio album Red that same day, after moving its release date up a week.

The release date of An Evening with Silk Sonic comes as somewhat of a surprise because Mars and .Paak previously said that they probably won’t share it with the world until January 2022.

“We’re really in touch-up mode now. We’ve got the bones of most of the album, so it’s really about touching up parts that need a little more… Grease,” Mars told Rolling Stone, and added they’ll drop more singles in the lead-up to the album because he doesn’t want it to be “binge-watched”.

The release date announcement was preceded by two singles—the duo’s chart-topping debut “Leave the Door Open” and its follow-up “Skate”, which peaked at no. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.

According to Mars, the delay will allow the duo to put some extra work into the songs. “We’re really in the touch-up mode now,” Mars explained. “We’ve got the bones of most of the album, so it’s really about touching up parts that need a little more… Grease.”

However, Mars and .Paak intend to make the wait more bearable for the fans by releasing several more singles before the record officially comes out.

“I don’t want to be binge-watched,” Mars added.

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak first revealed plans to form a band together in late February, saying they already have an album ready. They debuted the Silk Sonic project a week later, releasing its first single “Leave the Door Open.” The track was met with critical acclaim while topping the US Billboard Hot 100 charts and reaching No.1 in several other countries.

“Skate,” the second single from An Evening with Silk Sonic, was released on 30th July.

“That’s What I Like”, “When I Was Your Man”, “Just The Way You Are,” “Grenade”, and his collaboration with Mark Ronson, “Uptown Funk!” are Diamond certified.

“Congratulations to Bruno Mars — the first artist with five Diamond Single Awards in the history of RIAA’s Gold and Platinum Program!”, Recording Industry Association Of America chairman and CEO Mitch Glazier said of the achievement in a statement.

“This milestone is a testament to Bruno’s unstoppable creative genius and the incredible partnership he has built with the team at Atlantic Records. What Bruno has accomplished is just extraordinary. Fewer than 60 Diamond Single Awards have ever been awarded — and Bruno now has five of them!,” he continued.

Mars recently collaborated with Anderson .Paak for Silk Sonic. They released their first single “Leave the Door Open” in March. The song has been No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart for the past two weeks.

“Leave the Door Open” was originally released on March 15th, and it debuted at no. 4 before climbing to the top spot about a month after its release. Mars and Paak delivered the first live performance of this hit single at this year’s Grammy Awards.

“Leave the Door Open” is expected to be featured on the duo’s debut album, titled An Evening with Silk Sonic. They’ve been thinking of working together since touring by each other’s side in 2017, and their first joint album is expected to come out later this month.

When it comes to the rest of this week’s Billboard Hot 100 chart, Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” featuring DaBaby reached its new high at no. 2. It was followed by two former no. 1 singles—Justin Bieber’s “Peaches” and The Weeknd and Ariana Grande’s “Save Your Tears”.

Mars revealed on social media that the band is called Silk Sonic and features Parliament Funkadelic bassist Bootsy Collins as a “special guest.” He also announced that their first single will come out on March 5th.

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak toured in 2017 together, with .Paak serving as an opening act on Mars’ world tour for 24K Magic. They also reportedly spent some time in the studio alongside EDM duo Disclosure and funk legend Nile Rodgers, but those sessions didn’t result in new material at the time.

Silk Sonic’s album would be the first from Mars since previously mentioned 24K Magic. Since then, the Grammy Award-winning musician released several collaborations, including the hit single “Please Me,” which featured Cardi B.

Anderson .Paak’s most recent release is 2019’s critically acclaimed Ventura. The album made it to no. 4 on the U.S. Billboard 200, being his first Top 10 project. It also brought .Paak a Grammy Award for  Best R&B Album, while the single “Come Home” got recognized as Best R&B Performance.

Just like One World: Together At Home that took place last weekend, PlayOn Fest will donate its proceeds to the World Health Organization’s coronavirus solidarity response fund, but there’s one key difference – these performances aren’t actually brand-new.

Instead of featuring live streams, this virtual festival will feature past performances, but according to their official statement “the majority of this legendary footage has never and will never be available again anywhere else online.”

PlayOn Fest will stream via PlayOnFest.com and Songkick’s YouTube channel between April 24th and April 26th. You can tune in from noon to midnight ET to catch the performances of your favorite artists, many of which were filmed at iconic venues across the globe.

In addition to Sheeran, Mars, and Cardi B, the list of artists taking part in this virtual festival also includes Panic! At The Disco, Green Day, Coldplay, Paramore, Twenty One Pilots, Weezer, David Guetta, Charlie Puth, and Wiz Khalifa.

A stellar lineup for this year’s Super Bowl Music Fest has been assembled and we’re excited! The three-night music fest, which runs January 31st through February 2nd, is one of the most anticipated music events in the days leading up to the NFL’s biggest night.

The Rolling Stone confirms that Aerosmith, Ludacris and Bruno Mars will be among the artists performing at the festival.

Hip-hop will be on display on the festival’s first night with hometown artists Ludacris, Migos, Lil Yachty, Lil Baby, Metro Boomin’ and Lil Jon taking the stag. February 1st will feature Aerosmith with Post Malone scheduled to join the set. The last day will see performances by Bruno Mars and Cardi B.

Some artists have chosen to boycott events related to the Super Bowl, but not Lil Jon. He spoke with Atlanta Journal Constitution about the event that will take place at Atlanta’s State Farm, Arena.

“It’s our hometown, we gotta. It’s rare when we’re able to showcase what we love about this city and showcase our city. I think it’s more about the city than it is anything else. The Super Bowl is the Super Bowl, but this is the city we’ve grown up in, we launched our careers in and the city we live in. It’s about showcasing everything we love about our city.”

Literally.

The Finesse singer is currently traveling the globe as part of his 24K Magic World Tour.

Scottish fans of the 32-year-old got to see him in action on Tuesday — but things got a bit more heated than anyone anticipated.

During the performance, a firework caused a small fire, forcing Bruno to evacuate stage.

According to eyewitnesses, the crooner suddenly stopped singing, apologized to the crowd, and exited stage left… A lighting rig was then used to extinguish the blaze.

Ever the showman, when Bruno returned a few minutes later he incorporated the incident into the show and sang “We burned down the stage in Glasgow,” before saying “Better call the fire department when the Hooligans get on stage!”

#BrunoMars confirms the stage went on fire here at Glasgow Green due to a pyrotechnic which forced a temporary pause in the show. He then sings “we burned the stage down in Glasgow”. @BrunoMars pic.twitter.com/a8V6CqlOQz

Silk Sonic’s debut album is set to come out on November 12th, and it will have to face some tough competition on the charts. Taylor Swift is also releasing the re-recorded version of her fourth studio album Red that same day, after moving its release date up a week.

A post shared by Silk Sonic (@silksonic)

The release date of An Evening with Silk Sonic comes as somewhat of a surprise because Mars and .Paak previously said that they probably won’t share it with the world until January 2022.

“We’re really in touch-up mode now. We’ve got the bones of most of the album, so it’s really about touching up parts that need a little more… Grease,” Mars told Rolling Stone, and added they’ll drop more singles in the lead-up to the album because he doesn’t want it to be “binge-watched”.

The release date announcement was preceded by two singles—the duo’s chart-topping debut “Leave the Door Open” and its follow-up “Skate”, which peaked at no. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.

According to Mars, the delay will allow the duo to put some extra work into the songs. “We’re really in the touch-up mode now,” Mars explained. “We’ve got the bones of most of the album, so it’s really about touching up parts that need a little more… Grease.”

However, Mars and .Paak intend to make the wait more bearable for the fans by releasing several more singles before the record officially comes out.

“I don’t want to be binge-watched,” Mars added.

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak first revealed plans to form a band together in late February, saying they already have an album ready. They debuted the Silk Sonic project a week later, releasing its first single “Leave the Door Open.” The track was met with critical acclaim while topping the US Billboard Hot 100 charts and reaching No.1 in several other countries.

“Skate,” the second single from An Evening with Silk Sonic, was released on 30th July.

“That’s What I Like”, “When I Was Your Man”, “Just The Way You Are,” “Grenade”, and his collaboration with Mark Ronson, “Uptown Funk!” are Diamond certified.

“Congratulations to Bruno Mars — the first artist with five Diamond Single Awards in the history of RIAA’s Gold and Platinum Program!”, Recording Industry Association Of America chairman and CEO Mitch Glazier said of the achievement in a statement.

“This milestone is a testament to Bruno’s unstoppable creative genius and the incredible partnership he has built with the team at Atlantic Records. What Bruno has accomplished is just extraordinary. Fewer than 60 Diamond Single Awards have ever been awarded — and Bruno now has five of them!,” he continued.

Mars recently collaborated with Anderson .Paak for Silk Sonic. They released their first single “Leave the Door Open” in March. The song has been No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart for the past two weeks.

“Leave the Door Open” was originally released on March 15th, and it debuted at no. 4 before climbing to the top spot about a month after its release. Mars and Paak delivered the first live performance of this hit single at this year’s Grammy Awards.

“Leave the Door Open” is expected to be featured on the duo’s debut album, titled An Evening with Silk Sonic. They’ve been thinking of working together since touring by each other’s side in 2017, and their first joint album is expected to come out later this month.

When it comes to the rest of this week’s Billboard Hot 100 chart, Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” featuring DaBaby reached its new high at no. 2. It was followed by two former no. 1 singles—Justin Bieber’s “Peaches” and The Weeknd and Ariana Grande’s “Save Your Tears”.

Mars revealed on social media that the band is called Silk Sonic and features Parliament Funkadelic bassist Bootsy Collins as a “special guest.” He also announced that their first single will come out on March 5th.

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak toured in 2017 together, with .Paak serving as an opening act on Mars’ world tour for 24K Magic. They also reportedly spent some time in the studio alongside EDM duo Disclosure and funk legend Nile Rodgers, but those sessions didn’t result in new material at the time.

Silk Sonic’s album would be the first from Mars since previously mentioned 24K Magic. Since then, the Grammy Award-winning musician released several collaborations, including the hit single “Please Me,” which featured Cardi B.

Anderson .Paak’s most recent release is 2019’s critically acclaimed Ventura. The album made it to no. 4 on the U.S. Billboard 200, being his first Top 10 project. It also brought .Paak a Grammy Award for  Best R&B Album, while the single “Come Home” got recognized as Best R&B Performance.

Just like One World: Together At Home that took place last weekend, PlayOn Fest will donate its proceeds to the World Health Organization’s coronavirus solidarity response fund, but there’s one key difference – these performances aren’t actually brand-new.

Instead of featuring live streams, this virtual festival will feature past performances, but according to their official statement “the majority of this legendary footage has never and will never be available again anywhere else online.”

PlayOn Fest will stream via PlayOnFest.com and Songkick’s YouTube channel between April 24th and April 26th. You can tune in from noon to midnight ET to catch the performances of your favorite artists, many of which were filmed at iconic venues across the globe.

In addition to Sheeran, Mars, and Cardi B, the list of artists taking part in this virtual festival also includes Panic! At The Disco, Green Day, Coldplay, Paramore, Twenty One Pilots, Weezer, David Guetta, Charlie Puth, and Wiz Khalifa.

A stellar lineup for this year’s Super Bowl Music Fest has been assembled and we’re excited! The three-night music fest, which runs January 31st through February 2nd, is one of the most anticipated music events in the days leading up to the NFL’s biggest night.

The Rolling Stone confirms that Aerosmith, Ludacris and Bruno Mars will be among the artists performing at the festival.

Hip-hop will be on display on the festival’s first night with hometown artists Ludacris, Migos, Lil Yachty, Lil Baby, Metro Boomin’ and Lil Jon taking the stag. February 1st will feature Aerosmith with Post Malone scheduled to join the set. The last day will see performances by Bruno Mars and Cardi B.

Some artists have chosen to boycott events related to the Super Bowl, but not Lil Jon. He spoke with Atlanta Journal Constitution about the event that will take place at Atlanta’s State Farm, Arena.

“It’s our hometown, we gotta. It’s rare when we’re able to showcase what we love about this city and showcase our city. I think it’s more about the city than it is anything else. The Super Bowl is the Super Bowl, but this is the city we’ve grown up in, we launched our careers in and the city we live in. It’s about showcasing everything we love about our city.”

Literally.

The Finesse singer is currently traveling the globe as part of his 24K Magic World Tour.

Scottish fans of the 32-year-old got to see him in action on Tuesday — but things got a bit more heated than anyone anticipated.

During the performance, a firework caused a small fire, forcing Bruno to evacuate stage.

According to eyewitnesses, the crooner suddenly stopped singing, apologized to the crowd, and exited stage left… A lighting rig was then used to extinguish the blaze.

Ever the showman, when Bruno returned a few minutes later he incorporated the incident into the show and sang “We burned down the stage in Glasgow,” before saying “Better call the fire department when the Hooligans get on stage!”

#BrunoMars confirms the stage went on fire here at Glasgow Green due to a pyrotechnic which forced a temporary pause in the show. He then sings “we burned the stage down in Glasgow”. @BrunoMars pic.twitter.com/a8V6CqlOQz
