Bruno Mars has just become the first artist ever to surpass the 150 million monthly listeners milestone on Spotify. Those impressive numbers are aided by the breakout success of Mars’ hit collaboration with Lady Gaga, “Die With a Smile,” which is the current No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and has compiled nearly 1.7 billion Spotify streams since its release back in August of 2024. “Die With a Smile” is the ninth chart-topping single of Mars’ illustrious career, and he and Gaga are nominated for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their collaboration at the 2025 Grammy Awards. The 15-time Grammy winner also has another wildly successful current collaboration with Blackpink’s Rosé, which has already amassed over one billion Spotify streams and peaked at No. 5 on the Hot 100. On Friday (January 24), Mars dropped his new collab with St. Louis rapper Sexyy Red, “Fat Juicy & Wet,” with Gaga and Rosé making cameos in the music video for the R-rated track. (Variety)
