I legit was asking myself yesterday 'where is Queen of Insomnia and why has she not posted the Disney news yet?' I could have bumped the old thread with the news myself but it didn't feel right lol

I would have never expected Bruno Mars to be working on a Disney-related project. Should be interesting.
I do hope we'll be getting BM4 this year, though. Do you guys have any clue on the potential direction he might be heading to for his upcoming project?

spiritboy since they just inked the deal I hope itβs not related to his next album, otherwise weβre in for a longer hiatus, and itβs already been well over 3 years since 24k Magic. I was hoping for another cute well-crafted TV/streaming platform special like Live at the Apollo... But. No. Disney let him be a triple treat in their playground. That actually seems so unlike Disney that it makes me curious about what he brought to the table that made them greenlit his music-themed theatrical narrative feature and give him the lead part and soundtrack. He keeps building connections in the film industry since his debut, but stil lis seems like a bold move on both Bruno and Disney. As far as new music is concerned. Thereβs not muchβ¦ Reportedly he keeps working w/ The Stereotypes and James Fauntleroy who both worked on his 3rd album and came out of hidding for a second to praise Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis on TV and I sure hope thatβs a hint.

Despite Bruno moving quietly in the last year, his NAACP support continues as he scores the third Outstanding Male Artist win since 2018.

Always have loved Bruno, looking forward to new music when it eventually comes Also, if he is producing for Kehlani I am excited, a collab between them would be awesome and I desperately want Kehlani to finally get a big hit under her belt

I can actually picture Bruno doing an Evanescence-esque "Bring Me To Life" kind of song alongside a featured artist. And he has shown with "BLOW" that he can handle and excel on hard rock. He's never been much of a rapper though, but that's where the featured artist comes in π
But don't forget that before nu-metal, we had Eurodance β

Bruno has yet to make a bad album. Each of his releases gets better and better and I hope the trend continues.

I hope he continues to stay in his lane, wheelhouse and slightly veers nothing drastic. He brings to music what I always need. It takes me back to when I fell in love with music. I mean king of melody!!
I dont need trap and I dont need dance pop or I'll usher you out of my playlist!!

I don't want this album to be anything like his last one. At all.

It's been almost 4 years since 24K! Crazy hope we get an album late 2020.
