Bruno Mars won his sixth Grammy of the night on Sunday, the best album of the year for "24K Magic": the American music industry chose to give its highest honor to a singer who has triumphed commercially by reliving a classic and blaring funk sound , reviewed AFP.
Mars swept the Grammy to conquer the top prizes, from best album to best song for "That's Why I Like" and better recording for "24K Magic", leaving behind the Puerto Rican viral hit "Despacito" that sought to become the first song in Spanish in conquering these awards.
"24K Magic" is the third album of this 32-year-old artist born in Hawaii, which generated hits like "That's What I Like" and that left behind in this category a record of three hip hop nominees, including "4: 44 "by Jay-Z and" DAMN. "By Kendrick Lamar.
"24K Magic" came four years after Mars became a star capable of filling stadiums with his album "Unorthodox Jukebox", in which he adapted a retro mix of funk, rock and soul for a modern audience.
For "24K Magic," Mars maintains almost the same sound, but includes more R & B with more fiery and sensual songs that accompany their contagious dance hits.
It is the first time that this 32-year-old singer wins the most prestigious prize in the music industry in the United States, although last year he contributed as a composer and producer to the winning album, "25", by the English ballad singer Adele.
