Bruno Mars has a new album, and to my surprise no one has really been talking about it. It’s no visual album, and it most certainly doesn’t comment on top hitting issues within America right now, but it still deserves its place in the spotlight. Honestly, 24k Magic is just a really fun, feel-good album. It has a great throwback R&B Soul sound to every song within the album and a lot of the songs are great to dance to or just bump to on your own. One of my favorite songs on the album is “Chunky”. It just has a super fun sound, and its extremely danceable, and just like the rest of the album, has a great throw back R&B Soul feel. In addition to the great melodies and killer beats there are tons of fun lyrics. Like in one of my other favorite songs on the album “Perm”, where the lyrics for the chorus are “throw some perm on your attitude…cause you gotta relax”. It’s one of those songs that you can’t listen to without smiling and bopping your head to. In addition to all of the dance music there are quite a few ballads on the album so there is little bit of something for everyone on it. This was the perfect album for Bruno Mars to come back with, and we, as decent human beings, should talking about it more.
