After more than a decade without releasing a solo album, Bruno Mars officially confirmed that his new album has been completed, news that generated immediate excitement among his fans around the world and especially within the U.S. Hispanic community.
The American singer made the announcement briefly but forcefully on Monday night, January 5, when he welcomed the new year with a message posted on his official X account (formerly Twitter), a platform on which he has more than 36 million followers. “My album is ready,” Bruno Mars wrote, without offering further details about the title, the number of songs or the exact release date. However, the message was enough to confirm that his long-awaited comeback as a solo artist will take place sometime in 2026.
Ten years since his last solo album
Bruno Mars’ last solo album was “24K Magic,” released in 2016.
An album that cemented her status as one of the most influential figures in contemporary pop and R&B.
Since then, the artist had not released a full-length solo project, although his musical activity never stopped.
In 2021, Bruno Mars formed with Anderson .Paak the successful duo Silk Sonic, with whom he released the album “An evening with Silk Sonic”.
The project received critical and commercial recognition, reaffirming the singer’s artistic relevance during the last decade.
Partnerships that maintained their global presence
In addition to Silk Sonic, Bruno Mars has been involved in several high-profile collaborations in recent years.
Among the highlights is the ballad “Die with a smile”, together with Lady Gaga, as well as the song “APT”, in collaboration with Rosé, member of BLACKPINK.
She also appeared on Sexyy Red’s single “Fat juicy & wet”, demonstrating her versatility and ability to adapt to different musical styles and generations.
These collaborations kept Bruno Mars relevant on the charts and digital platforms, even without a solo album of his own.
