Warner Music Philippines Showcased An APT-themed Performance


ROSÉ and Bruno Mars fans in Bonifacio High Street were delighted last December 21, 2024 when local musicians from Banda San Jose surprised them with an incredible pop-up performance.

Those who witnessed this musical feat got to hear the record-breaking collaboration between Bruno Mars and Blackpink’s ROSÉ: “APT.”, as well as two songs from the latter’s newest solo album “rosie” – “number one girl” and “toxic till the end.”

 

To give the crowd something to move and groove to, the band also performed some of Bruno Mars’ greatest hits like “Uptown Funk,” “Just the Way You Are,” and “Locked Out of Heaven.”

The APT. Formula: two global powerhouses create an irresistible hit

This lively marching band performance comes months after the release of the hit single APT., which has garnered critical acclaim throughout the world.

To date, this collaboration by ROSÉ and Bruno Mars has achieved the feat of being the biggest debut for a male-female duet on YouTube. APT. also debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 charts, and retained this spot for five weeks.

As individual artists, ROSÉ and Bruno Mars have also been breaking records of their own. The former has set the record for the highest monthly listeners on Spotify by a K-Pop artist, which isn’t surprising given the success of her debut album. Meanwhile, Bruno Mars has amassed over 120 million monthly listeners on Spotify, making him the number one artist in the world.

It’s clear that both these musical icons continue to go beyond their already-impressive portfolio, and have cracked the code for producing hit after hit. Whether or not ROSÉ and Bruno Mars do another collaboration, fans are sure to get more amazing music from both of them in the future.
