Is Bruno Mars simply amazing?


The new male music artist scene is particually weak, these days. Ladies rule except in cases like Justin Bieber (although he sometimes looks like a teenage girl). I am not into solo male artists. I do prefer female singers and bands, but sometimes extremely talented male artists do stand out.

This is the case of singer-song writer, Bruno Mars (not his real name, as he has Puertorican origins). When this mixed.raced male appaeared at the end of the 2010 year with his song "Just the way you are", it went straight on to Nº1 on the US billboad. And it's because it sounded differtent, and of course because of his voice. It was a very commercial song, but included tiny different beats within it. It is just a simple song about a guy who loves a girl in every way. An amazing love song that
hit charts all over the world. And from the biginning he appeared in public with an item that he created of his very own. I actualy cannot think about a Bruno Mars image without one of his hats.

Then he released the album called DooWops and Holligans a mixture of pop,  R&B, reggae, soul and hip hop, and also his second  single: Grenade. Another love song, but in this case about the lack of affection due to a selfish and non recommendable woman. Again new and original beats for this kind of song. Even the title is original. Who would have thought of a bomb for the title of a love song? Definetely not me.

And aftererwards Bruno surprised everyone with his third single: The Lazy song. Something that I would just define as "a funny song".

All of them have been very successful around the world. But for me, his best song is the one that has been included in the last part of the most famous vampires saga: Twilight. Another love song called 'It Will Rain".

Besides his songs, he has collaborated with artists like Eminem, BOB or Lil Wayne. In fact he first started writing songs for other famous artists.

Some music experts have considered him the new Michael Jackson, but I think this is too much.
