We haven’t featured Bruno Mars on this blog apart from when he has made vocal appearances on other rappers’ tracks, but now that he has announced the impending release of this debut EP It’s Better If You Don’t Understand, I feel that it’s definitely time to feature him as a solo act.

I’m going to stick my neck out and say that we will be seeing and hearing a lot from this young man in the future. You may have heard quite a lot of him before though, as he was responsible for co-writing the international hit Right Round for Flo Rida.

He is also attributed with production credits for some Maroon 5 songs, but I can’t find any physical evidence to prove that correct, so i’m assuming that he may be a part of their new album Hands All Over, said to be dropping in June.

As a result of this impressive impact on other artists’ tracks, his record company have finally decided to give him the chance to release his own material, and The Other Side is the perfect opportunity to add value to his brand even more.

Sounding slightly like something Gnarls Barkley may produce, Bruno comes in with his own writing team to pen another absolutely fantastic pop song. B.o.B repays the favour for helping him to reach the number one spot with a cameo, as does Cee-Lo Green, who compliments Bruno’s vocals exquisitely. Listen to it for yourself below! Enjoy.
