Bruno Mars Rose APT: BLACKPINK’s Rosé has teamed up with Bruno Mars to release the chart-topping single “APT,” which has quickly become a global sensation. The track, which dropped on October 18, 2024, has already skyrocketed to the #1 spot on Spotify’s global and U.S. charts, making it one of the fastest-growing songs of the year. In just two days, “APT” saw a 49% increase in global streams, reaching 10.2 million on Spotify alone, with U.S. streams growing by 25%.
“APT” stands out not only for its captivating sound but also for its unique inspiration—a popular Korean drinking game called the “Apartment Game” (APT). The game involves players stacking their hands while calling out random numbers, and mistakes result in drinks, adding a playful and energetic vibe to the song’s theme.
The collaboration between Rosé and Bruno Mars brings together two musical powerhouses, blending Mars’ smooth vocals with Rosé’s distinct style, creating a romantic yet rebellious anthem. The song’s music video, shot in dynamic shades of black and pink, further enhances their on-screen chemistry, making it a must-watch for fans globally.
Rosé, who debuted as a solo artist in 2021, is now gearing up for her highly anticipated studio album Rosie, set to release on December 6, 2024. “APT” is the lead single from the album and has already set the stage for an explosive comeback.
Fans of both artists are raving about the playful and energetic nature of “APT,” with the track becoming a cultural moment, particularly due to its association with the traditional Korean drinking game. As Rosé continues to break barriers and expand her global influence, this collaboration with Bruno Mars is another testament to her artistry and ability to dominate the music scene.
Whether you’re here for the catchy beats or intrigued by the “Apartment Game” that inspired the song, APT is shaping up to be one of the biggest hits of 2024, and Rosé’s upcoming album promises even more exciting moments.
