The lead single 24K Magic itself is credited with over 1.8 billion streams, while follow-up hits like That’s What I Like and Versace on the Floor contribute significantly to the album’s total streaming volume.

Where Bruno Mars stands now

His albums, including Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010), Unorthodox Jukebox (2012) and 24K Magic (2016), lean heavily on live instrumentation, tight horn sections and vocal harmonies reminiscent of 1980s and 1990s R&B.
Collaborations with producers such as The Stereotypes and Brody Brown have been central to the groove-oriented sound that runs through 24K Magic and his later work with Anderson .Paak in the duo Silk Sonic.
