Bruno Mars' First Solo Album in 10 Years Is Finished

Bruno Mars ends a nearly 10-year solo hiatus with a new album following Grammy-winning hits and collaborations reaching billions of streams, Billboard reported.

  • On Jan. 5, 2026, Bruno Mars posted `My album is done.` on his social media account, signaling his first solo studio album in nearly a decade.
  • After years of collaborations, Bruno Mars focused on high-profile projects like Silk Sonic with Anderson.Paak and remained selective about solo releases.
  • His solo pedigree includes 24K Magic, Bruno Mars' 2016 album that won six trophies at the 2018 Grammys, and a 2024 feature on a global No. 1 K-pop song with nearly 4.9 billion streams through November 27, according to Luminate.
  • Recent collaborations indicate Mars' 2024 duet with Lady Gaga and 2025 track with Sexyy Red, plus a recent all-star performance with Slash, Eddie Vedder and Brandi Carlile, suggest diverse, live influences.
  • Looking at recent features, Silk Sonic's 2021 homage to 1970s funk and soul earned Grammys, and a 2024 K-pop collaboration amassed nearly 4.9 billion streams through Nov. 27, per Luminate.
