"He is the first artist to surpass 150 million monthly listeners on Spotify and, at a time when fewer records are being bought than ever, he ranks among the 30 best-selling artists of all time, surpassing, for example, Bruce Springsteen and U2 with an estimated 236 million records sold. He has won 16 Grammy Awards and has had nine number-one hits in the U.S."
"He hasn't released an album under his own name in 10 years, but in 2025, he had the most-streamed song in the world on Spotify (Die With A Smile, a duet with Lady Gaga) and the third most-streamed (APT, with Rose). With these credentials, it's safe to say that Bruno Mars, 40, is one of the most successful artists in contemporary pop, and that his upcoming fourth album, The Romantic scheduled for February 27 is one of the most anticipated releases of the year."
