Bruno Mars Reveals Tracklist For Upcoming Album ‘The Romantic’

The nine-song set marks his first solo release since 2016's 24K Magic.

After a decade-long gap between solo studio albums, Bruno Mars has unveiled the tracklist for his fourth LP, The Romantic, due Feb. 27.

The nine-song set marks his first solo release since 2016’s 24K Magic. Mars revealed the full lineup Monday (Feb. 16), confirming that the album will be led by “I Just Might,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 — his first career No. 1 debut and his 10th Hot 100 chart-topper overall.
