Artist: Bruno mars
Album: Doo Wops & Hooligans
Label: Elektra

Starting off as a song writer Bruno Mars helped craft records such as Flo Rida’s #1 smash single “Right Round“, Matisyahu‘s “One Day” and K’Naan‘s “Wavin’ Flag” which was the official anthem of the 2010 World Cup. But it wasn’t until B.O.B.‘ s and Bruno Mars collaboration on “Nothin’ On You” that made both of their careers take off. An on his debut album mars displays that he’s more than just a great songwriter or hook man but he’s a rising star clearly shown on his first single “Just The Way You Are“. Inspired great musical influences such as The Beatles, The Police and Michael Jackson to name a few you can hear his MJ influence on records such as “Our First Time“. On songs like “Talking To The Moon“, “Liquor Store Blues” featuring Damian Marley and “Somewhere In Brooklyn” which is definitely a personal favorite of mine is where Mars separates himself from every other artist in the music industry and displays his own personal style & sound best. Some other highlights on Doo Wops & Hooligans are “The Other Side” featuring Cee Lo Green & B.O.B. and “Grenade“.
