Mars was inspired to create an album on which he could capture the sound of 1990s R&B, taking inspiration from Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, New Edition, Bobby Brown, Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Teddy Riley, Mariah Carey and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, whose music Mars listened and danced to during his childhood. He wanted to make people dance. The lyrics of 24K Magic explore themes similar to those of its predecessor, Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), including money and sex. According to Mars, although he was able to convince Atlantic Records of the album's sound, they were initially hesitant.

24K Magic debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 chart with first-week sales of 231,000 equivalent album units and became Mars' first number-one album on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. It also peaked at number two in Canada, France and New Zealand, and produced five singles: "24K Magic", "That's What I Like", and "Finesse", which were commercially successful while "Versace on the Floor" charted moderately and "Chunky" had a limited release. "That's What I Like" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Mars' seventh number-one song on the US. The album was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ), as well as double platinum by Music Canada (MC) and Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP).

Critical responses to 24K Magic were generally favorable; many reviewers noticed the change of style, focusing on contemporary R&B and the improvement on the production. Others criticized the detachment from the casual listener and the lack of "vulnerability" from his previous ballads. At the 2018 Grammy Awards 24K Magic won seven Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year and Best R&B Album, whilst the title track won Record of the Year and "That's What I Like" won Song of The Year at the same ceremony. several publications listed the album as one of the best records of the yea and The Associated Press named it as the tenth-best album of the 2010s. The album was also promoted through the 24K Magic World Tour (2017–2018).

Background

In early 2014, Bruno Mars was interviewed by That's Shanghai and gave some details of the new album, stating, "I want to write better songs ... put on better shows ... make better music videos. I want my next album to be better than the first and the second."[1] In September 2014, Mars tweeted, "Now it's time to start writing chapter 3", hinting he was working on new music. Following the release of Mark Ronson's and Mars' single "Uptown Funk" (2014), Mars went to the studio to record more songs; he said he had no plans to release a new album "until it's done".[2] Mars' new album was due in March 2016 but its release was postponed for several months because of his appearance at that year's Super Bowl half-time show. At the time, seven songs were already recorded.[2]

Mars worked with engineer Charles Moniz, who called the album the "next movement of Bruno" and confirmed the album was close to being finished in February 2016.[3] Mars also worked with Andrew Wyatt, who was involved in Mars' previous studio albums, and Jamareo Artis of The Hooligans, who said they had been "trying different ideas and experimenting" and "It's going to have a new sound ... the material is very groove-oriented".[4][5] Mars also worked in the studio with Missy Elliott but he said they were just hanging out.[6]

In an interview with Zane Lowe for the Apple Music podcast Beats 1, Mars said for the third album he "wanted to make a movie. A real movie. I told myself"; he also said the album is filled with 1990s influences.[7] Mars concluded; "I just want to do music. I want to be the guy that brings joy to your life through his music."[8] Mars said he felt he was correct to record nine songs, saying; "If I can't pull you in with nine songs, I'm not gonna pull you in with nineteen!"[6] Mars said his imaginary movie is set in New York during a summer night at the "baddest rooftop house party. 2:30 in the morning, the band comes out, fucking dipped in Versace. The girls are screaming."[9] Mars said he was unaware of the movie's plot, adding; "it's about a Versace-wearing pimp". Mars stated this album contrasts with his others, on which he would experiment with genres: "I wanted to really hone it in and give myself a world in which I could keep it contained ... I want to sing more so than I did on the other albums".[10] He chose to emulate "the feeling of the R&B he fell in love with as a kid", avoiding making it sound like a tribute or forced, taking inspiration from Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, New Edition, Bobby Brown, Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Teddy Riley, Mariah Carey and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds.[9][11] In November 2017, Mars was a guest on the Charlie Rose Show and said as he grew up pop music was "R&B-rooted songs", which he danced to at school balls and barbecues. Mars wanted to achieve the same "feeling and emotion", concluding "Man, it was fun to dance, it was cool to smile on the dance floor with a girl and flirt with a girl on the dance floor". To achieve his aim to make people want to dance again, he needed the songs to make him dance, saying "So many things go into getting the right swing".[12] The singer was inspired by his passion "for R&B acts"; he said; "that is the spirit we were hoping to capture on this album ... it was all about the live show and the kind of party I want to throw".[13] Mars considers Babyface one of his heros, saying, "Music, to me, is all about feeling. Before, lyrics, and beats and the new drum sounds, it's about feeling. And he's the best."[10]

Mars asked James Fauntleroy to help him him write "That's What I Like" but Fauntleroy co-wrote most of the songs on the album. Fauntleroy said; "Bruno is the core of those songs and Phil is also on all those songs for a very specific reason, he is a huge part of the reason those songs sound like that." He added that despite having a good time with them, it was "probably the most intense album process of my life".[14] American record producer and DJ Skrillex said about working with Mars on a song for 24K Magic; "what we're doing is so ... different, awesome and next level and sounds like nothing else that's happened before".[15] Skrillex said; "who knows if I'll do something that's more of a Skrillex thing with him, but we have a vision for his album, and I'm helping him produce it on some of the songs".[16] The song they were working on was not completed in time for the album's release.[6] American rapper T-Pain who worked on "Straight Up & Down", said he saw Mars and his band, and with the engineer "jamming out and having a good time". T-Pain worked on the song; he said Mars "made some different shit and was real specific about what he wanted".[17]

Although Mars was able to convince Atlantic Records of the album's sound, they were initially hesitant.[13] A private album listening party was held at Atlantic's offices in New York City for several journalists.[10]

Production and composition

Recording

Mars reunited with frequent colaborators Philip Lawrence and Christopher Brody Brown, forming a new production trio, Shampoo Press & Curl, to record his third studio album, 24K Magic.[18] It was recorded at Glenwood Place Studios in Burbank, California between the fall 2015 and September 2016. Nevertheless, the singer returned to the studio for on the first week of October to complete the album. Mars revelead that he was not confident returning to the studio after releasing "Uptown Funk" (2014) and was struggling to write new songs.[9] On top of that, he added that he took him so long as to create a song he needs to "touch an instrument or it won't come out. If I'm not touching the guitar or touching the drum machine or playing the piano, the song just won't come out."[6] He also believes the clothes make the album as he came to the studio dressing jewelry, fine shows and his finest clothes instead of the usual sweats to create the "groovy, smooth and soulful songs" on the record.[13]

Lawrence said "We got the sitting in the studio laboring over songs for hours and days and weeks". He furthered that playing new songs live while recording helped as they noticed "what works, what doesn't work, what could be better, what could be improved on."[13] For instance, "Finesse" underwent twenty different versions, including one in which Mars sang about "gold chains and cognac over a silky beat", and another which sounded "like a Seventies cop show". "Versace on the Floor" started with a "piña colada vibe" before the beat was remixed, however, Mars felt his vocal performance and lyrics were not emotive enough for a ballad, and changed the melody and re-wrote the track.[9] Regarding "Too Good to Say Goodbye", Mars started to wrote the song a long time ago never finishing it. Nevertheless, when Babyface heard the chorus on the piano he wanted to finish it, Mars said the process "was old-school; sitting down on the piano and we built this song."[6] Mars used a flexatone, a percussion instrument, on the album, giving to him by DJ Quik.[13]

The Stereotypes were also involved in the album's recording and production. They had known Mars and worked with him since 2007, however, after the singer signed a deal with Atlantic Records they did not collaborate very often.[19] Nevertheless, in 2015 Jonathan Yip talked with Mars about working together. Since the singer was already recording 24K Magic, Mars asked for "some beats" and Yip sent them. Later, he asked for more beats and The Stereotypes sent them, but they never heard from him, "nothing came of it".[20][18] In June 2016, Yip touched base with Mars. He asked Yip if they would like to help him finish a song for his album, to add a little "seasoning". He needed another song with a certain tempo and key.[20][18][21] Yip sent Mars an idea that caught his attention, and he asked The Stereotypes to come to the studio.[19][20][22] Once in the studio, it took them some time to "get the groove" on the track. They spent the first couple of hours catching up and having fun.[19][22][23] The Stereotypes helped Mars finishing "24K Magic" (2016) and "That's What I Like" (2017), and along with Shampoo Press & Curl created "Finesse" (2018).[19][22] The team noticed that Mars "is his own biggest critic", calling him a "perfectionist".[23] This was also noticed after Mars granted interviews.[6][9]

In August 2016, the album entered the mixing stage.[9] Serban Ghenea, who mixed all the tracks, had to return to the early stages of his career as an R&B and hip hop engineer, to come up with the "esthetic" for 24K Magic. He explained, "the idea was to have a '90s R&B/hip-hop-influenced album, but with a modern sonic presentation".[24] Charles Moniz, who worked as the album's recording engineer, told they would felt great regarding a certein song and Mars wanted to "see if we can push it further" as he wanted 24K Magic to be "the foundation for his live show". The singer would ask to imagine "the songs being played in front of an audience", to get see how they play, their feeling and if they could dance to it.[25] The engineer confessed they would start to work in the afternoon and spent 14 hours in the studio each day, with the album taking 22 months to record and once the writing stopped, the singer would "bounce ideas around the room and we’ll start experimenting." Moniz said Mars and his team were set to creat an R&B album as "it's a part of who they are", adding "that's where his head was at". Regarding the mixing process he said Mars was always close to it and as album was getting a shape as it was mandatory for Mars "to sketch out his vision for the overall feel of the project."[26]

Music and lyrics

24K Magic explores several genres, including, R&B, soul, funk, pop and new jack swing.[27][28][29] According to Andy Kellman of AllMusic, the album "might as well be considered the full-length sequel to "Uptown Funk" (2014); Mars  ... sheds the reggae and new wave inspirations and goes all-out R&B".[30] The album includes the R&B ballads "Versace on the Floor", "Straight Up & Down" and "Too Good To Say Goodbye".[31][32][33] The funk tracks are "24K Magic", "Chunky" and "Perm", and the new jack swing track is "Finesse".[31][34][35] It also features the R&B heartbreaker "Calling All My Lovelies" and the hip hop soul, new jack swing, R&B and funk song, "That's What I Like".[31][32][18] Lyrics on the album are themed around money and sex.[36]

The album opens with a talkbox on "24K Magic"; the track's synthesizer riff and backbeat are inspired by "The Message" (1982) by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Its lyrics celebrate extravagance, glamour and the party lifestyle.[37][38][39] "Chunky" is an electro-funk track that features synthesizers and drum machines; according to A.V. Club it is an anthem for big buttocks.[31][34][40] "Perm" is influenced by the 1960s and James Brown's style on the horns, stabs and drums, and Nile Rodgers' electric guitar.[41][37] Its "shuffle" was compared to Brown's "Funky Drummer" (1970) and features "shout-singing" style and Mars' "scraped-up vocal".[40][37] The song is about Mars going out and having a "good time" with his companions.[41] "That's What I Like", the album's second single, draws from "the silky vibes" of R. Kelly's 12 Play (1993), taking them to "the boom of modern trap".[29] The song is about extravagance, a luxurious lifestyle and love.[28][31][42]

The slow jam of the 1980s and 1990s of "Versace on The Floor" shows Mars' romantic side, with champagne flutes, rose petals, dancing and getting intimate with his lover.[31][32][43] "Straight Up & Down" opens with a vocal choir resembling the one on Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life (1976) and samples of Shai's "Baby I'm Yours" (1993).[41] Its lyrics detail Mars' "favorite bedroom tricks" and a "booty celebration".[42][34] "Calling All My Lovelies" draws inspiration from Silk's "Freak Me" with its "massive harmonies and bass-voiced spoken-word", and tells a story of heartbreak.[32][31] It includes a "dreamy voicemail message" spoken by actor Halle Berry.[32][44] "Finesse" is also a funk, hip-hop and soul recording with R&B influences.[18][45] Lyrically, it demonstrate the happiness and positive outcomes of being with one's lover.[45] The album's final song of the standard edition "Too Good To Say Goodbye" includes "horn bleats", piano, various harmonies, and "one of Mars' most emotional vocal performances".[31] The track draws its structure from early 1970s Philly soul and 1990s R&B.[28][30] The remix of "Finesse" features Cardi B with a flow and rhyme resembling a "turn-of-the-1990s cadence", as well as Salt-N-Pepa and Heavy D styles.[46][47][48]

Cover

The cover of 24K Magic shows Mars sitting on a chair and wearing a red shirt and shorts, and a white cap. Mars and Greg "Giden's Dad" Burke created the artwork, which was photographed by Kai Z Feng.[49] According to Mars, the cover art was inspired by a "musky cologne" advertisement and the "1995 [sic] Cadillac Allanté convertible" that felt like "bootleg luxury". When they were creating the cover art, Mars decided the man driving the car would wear his best silk clothing while "doing something extra-fancy in shorts!".[6] The style, according to Mars, comes from his father, not only "the pinkie rings, the pompadour", but also the Cadillac, the clothing, the hair style and the "flashy" glasses.[11] The album's cover art was styled to resemble a 1990's album; the song titles are printed in a basic font.[6] During a photography season, Feng was unaware of the reason for Mars "throwing up the number 24 with his fingers". Feng asked Mars whether his pose had anything to do with the album; Mars told Feng to be quiet. He said Mars gave him "a lot of trust to do my thing" and added Mars "is not shy in front of the camera; he’s always moving and dancing, as long as you have the right music playing".[26]

The album was due in March but Mars' appearance at the 2014 Super Bowl halftime show postponed it for several months. Seven songs were already recorded.[2] On October 3, 2016, Mars announced the release of the album's first single "24K Magic" via Instagram, dubbing it "the invitation to the party".

24K Magic received generally favorable reviews from music critics. Based on 14 reviews, the review-aggregating website Metacritic gave the album received an average score of 70.[96] Another aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave 24K Magic 6.5 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[95]

In a positive review, Patrick Bowman of Idolator gave the album a rave review, rating it four and a half stars out of five. Bowman admitted that "Mars himself relishing every moment he gets to play the golden-voiced lothario dripping with swag and Versace."[100] HipHopDX's Carl Lamarre gave it a 4.3/5 rating. Lamarre felt Mars "succinctly gets his point across by instilling that much needed old-school nostalgia lacking in music today with nine tracks.[42] Nolan Feeney from Entertainment Weekly gave it an B+ and stated that "With only nine songs, there's not an ounce of fat on Magic, and nearly every track sounds like Top 40 gold", describing the record as a fusion of 70's funk and 90's R&B.[97] Nick Levine of NME rated the record four out of five stars. Levine said "few albums designed to sound like a party actually play like one, but Bruno Mars has pulled it off with style."[35] Reviewing 24K Magic for AllMusic, Andy Kellman gave the album four stars out of five, finding the recording to be the sequel to "Uptown Funk" (2014).[30]

The A.V. Club's Annie Zaleski gave it a B rating and wrote it is "easily his most cohesive and enjoyable collection, an escapist record that comes by its evocations of the past honestly".[31] Troy L. Smith from Cleveland.com wrote; "Mars is the kind of songwriter who knows how to take what's worked a million times over and that something extra to make it his own. At this point it's getting damn near impossible to not like a Bruno Mars album."[101] The New York Times' Jon Caramanica said "the new songs – his most diverse set to date, and mostly rigorously executed and fun – show Mr. Mars to be interested in different musical eras, different production approaches and different singing voices without veering into chaos".[37] Karen Gwee of Consequence of Sound awarded the album a B- score, calling it a "fun, nostalgic R&B album from one of pop's best performers today".[44] Andrew Unterberger from Billboard said it "pays homage to any number of pop performers from his canon, in winking tributes that still keep one foot (or at least a couple of toes) in the present".[32]

In a mixed review, Daniel Bromfield writing for Spectrum Culture rated 24K Magic 3.25 out of 5 stars. Bromfield said, "There's a sense of remove here – as if you can only gaze at Mars in awe, like his namesake planet, and never hope to connect with him. 24K Magic may improve with time. For now, it's hard not to feel underwhelmed."[102] Pitchfork's Katherine St. Asaph rated it 6.2 out of 10, writing; "24K Magic is the rest of the park: rebuilt shinier and glitzier and safer, every element engineered to please more than the real thing, and with a hell of a tour guide. It's not history, not even historical fiction, but harmless fun."[28] The Wall Street Journal' Jim Fusilli wrote; "In comparison to what he's done in the past and to today's rich and adventurous funk and R&B, the album feels a tad tepid at times. But it's quality, never-dull work by a quality, never-dull artist who lovingly revives the sounds he savored on his way up."[41] Jim Carroll from The Irish Times, Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian, and Victoria Segall from Q all rated 24K Magic three stars out of five. Carroll said, "Mars shows he's a smart operator when it comes to the sort of pop which has all the accoutrements needed to engineer earworms, yet is sussed enough to know a little dab of special sauce is often required".[27] Sullivan wrote, "though Mars styles himself as a playa here ... the core of the album is his passion for the early 90s period when hip-hop met soul".[98] Segall stated "24K Magic's luxe exterior writes cheques its soul can't cash".[99]

Reviewing the record for Rolling Stone, Christopher R. Weingarten rated it three stars out of five. He said it "may not be the most glittering display for Bruno Mars the pop star, but fans can rest assured it is a shining moment for Bruno Mars the producer, arranger and nostalgia curator".[29] In a similar vein, USA Today' Patrick Ryan called it Mars' "most polished album yet and a laudable step forward production-wise" but added it appears "oddly aloof" because it lacks the "vulnerability" of Mars' own ballads such as "Grenade" (2010) and "When I Was Your Man" (2013). Ryan rated it two and a half stars out of four.[34] Jonathan Wroble of Slant Magazine gave it three stars out of five stars and called the album "a tidy, if derivative, antidote to today's overthought, overwrought pop".[36] The Observer 's Kitty Empire rated the album three stars out of five and wrote; "Anyone in need of indulgent escapism will find plenty here. But you do wonder ... if more bling and circuses is what's required right now."[103] In a negative review, Andy Gill from The Independent gave it two stars out of five, saying; "the final product is a much tamer beast, taking its lead more from Mars' position as frontman of Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk" (2014)". Gill heavily criticized "That's What I Like" (2017) and "Chunky" (2017).[40]

Accolades

At the end of 2016, 24K Magic appeared on a number of critics' lists of the year's top albums. Idolator listed the album at number seven on its list of the Top 10 Best Albums of 2016. Carl Willot, wrote; "Bruno’s complete dedication to reviving lost sounds on 24K means it probably won't leave a long shadow. But that's the point."
