Lol that must be Ayoub one of my friends... he used to give me all Bruno news and stuff in facebook and i never gave a fuck. He's a good hooligan, And he must be glad i'm turning into one XD!

That's cool

OT but I just had to post this pic because Bruno looks so good here! Pic was just taken today, he was in Paris.

He must be promoting "Treasure", i really hope the song gets to be popular, especially with the domination of Get Lucky + Blurrend Lines that are the most popular disco jams now, "Treasure" is having serious competition... It's all on the music video, i hope it's unique this time, that'll make people like the song even more.

If Treasure goes number 1 Bruno will have a lot of success this year for damn sure..

Is he going to perform?

Well he was just in Paris and he performed on Le Grand Journal show, which will be aired on June 4th. Next he's headed over to Germany to perform on Germany's Next Top Model (May 30th). He has already recorded his performance of Treasure for The Voice, but I hear that wont air here until June 17th.

^ On the contrary-

Where i came from, everybody thought Prince was Amazing and totally the SHIT!

Playing all the instruments, singing ect...

The only negative comments were from Jealous dudes calling him a fag!

Bruno mars isn't even noticable compared to Prince.

I wonder what it is about this dude that i cant stand?

I see that he has some talent..

I see that in a world full of pousers he actually deserves to be called a recording artist.

but, I hate the dude's whole vibe for some reason-

he does nothing for me..

& i cant help thinking that people into him must be people that aren't very knowledgeable or deep..

strange.

I'm pretty sure there are quite a few people who thought the same of P when he first came out. Couldn't stand the whiney falsetto, aesthetic, vibe.

Perhaps we're just getting older and it doesn't resonate with us?

It's like sitting back all day watching these young imitations and trying to handpick somebody who's similar to Prince? That sucks, in this day we don't search for new Prince, or for somebody who's good enough to be compared to Prince, it's all about new talents.

You tell me what's wrong with Bruno i'll tell you what's wrong with Roger Nelson back in 1978. Give us a break guys, the man didn't even released 3 albums yet.

^^^

For a start..

1-Prince was a BADASS on several instruments!

Bruno isn't impressive on Any-

2-Prince was Unique and respected by Black people & Black Music Lovers-

I have a feeling that it would be quite difficult to find many TRUE black music lovers that praise Bruno mars or even who can hum one of his tunes.

(In the way that they typically can see that D'angelo or Maxwell for instance are the real deal)

3- Bruno mars is a pop act thats highly derivitive and bland (IMO)

Even the ultra derivative Lenny Kravitz was more respected as a real artist on his debut album than Bruno freakin Mars..

I'm not going to get into this again..

I have said enough about this little dude..

You're comparing P to Bruno?

That's fun..

I bet you guys are jealous because of the success Bruno is having in his career, neither D'Angelo or Lenny Kravitz or Maxwell (my respect for them) got the chance to be global superstars..

So meanwhile Bruno is having it, it's like "He doesn't deserve it" when you guys don't even know the real shit, and u know when this typical stuff will end like forever? Never.. Bruno will never release this neo-soul/R&B album thingy for True black lovers, he does what he wants, that ain't hard to swallow.

I wonder if your name here means you were born in 1989?

If so, then your post directed at me makes sense..

Its not hard to see why you think Bruno Mars is so special when some of your other favs include:

Janelle Monàe, Eminem, Beyoncé, Duffy & Mariah Carey..

Whatever-

Guess i'm lucky being a not-fake listener who likes things he likes and not SUPPOSED to like things while he doesn't.. i mean, dude, cut the crap... everybody knows you're FAKE.

What else Frank Ocean is a better musician because Pitchfork rated his album 10/10? Gimme a break.

Right! People are gonna like who they like no matter if others dont. People like Bruno Mars because they enjoy his music and his art. Its that simple-it aint anything deep. I can admit that Bruno isnt necessarily the best musician out there but that doesnt matter to me. A musician doesnt have to be the BEST in order for me to like them, its about a certain quality or trait they have that gets my attention.

Bruno is VERY TALENTED, has a great voice IMO, his songs are very catchy and fun and have a way of making you feel good. He's a very musical person, as it was mentioned earlier he can play several instruments-all self taught. Plus he's got lots of charisma and charm. He's a breath of fresh air in today's stifling and stale music industry. He's not afraid to rock his own style and experiment with a variety of genres.

To ppl who dont get his appeal and wonder why people love Bruno, the best way to answer that is to borrow from the title of Bruno's first EP: It's Better If You Dont Understand.

He is perfect

PREACH!

Are you in Germany? Or did you stream the performance online? I just saw it on Youtube. Poor fella was battling a sore throat or a cold But he handled it like a pro and I give major props for him singing live even tho he was under the weather when he could've taken the easy way out and lip synced. He's a real trooper

I am shocked and saddend by this news. I cant even imagine the pain that Bruno and his family are going through right now My thoughts and prayers for that entire family. RIP Bernadette

May God be with the entire Hernandez family during this extremely painful time

I just hope Bruno is fine at the moment, him and his family. His mamma was like the only person he loved from his heart, he loved her so much, more than anybody in this world, How could he now start the tour with him suffering such pain? I prefer him to cancel the June dates n figure something out, he needs to stay outta the biz for a long time.

I cant even imagine what he's feeling right now. My heart hurts for him and his family. I dont know if he will postpone, cancel or continue with the tour. He's probably not even thinking about it right now but I'll support his decision whatever it may be.

The first thing Bruno bought when he started being successful and making some money:

“I bought my mother a house. She did take care of me for quite some time so it was time for her to sit back and relax. She was in tears. It was a very special moment for me.” - Bruno Mars


He really loved his mama.

Bruno singing "I Love You Mom" at the age of 4. He also wrote this song.
