Bruno Mars Kicks off ‘The Romantic’ Era With New Single ‘I Just Might’
January 12, 2026
Bruno Mars is back. The Grammy-winning singer returned Friday (Jan. 9) to launch his The Romantic era with the new single “I Just Might.” Dropping at the stroke of midnight, the slick new song channels Leo Sayer’s disco classic “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing,” and is accompanied with a music video which sees Mars, dressed in a green suit, fronting a band of Brunos. Daniel Ramos and Mars direct the clip.
The single will land on Bruno’s fourth studio album, with The Romantic slated to arrive on Feb. 27. It’s the pop supernova’s first solo LP in nearly a decade, which came with 2016’s Grammy-winning 24K Magic album.
Bruno shook up the music landscape with a simple four-word announcement on Jan. 5. “My album is done,” he wrote to X. In the time between solo projects, Bruno has been selective with his releases. He teamed up with Anderson .Paak for An Evening With Silk Sonic in 2021, which dominated at the Grammy Awards.
Bruno Mars also made his presence felt on the charts with collaborations like the dynamic Billboard Hot 100-topper “Die With a Smile” featuring Lady Gaga and “APT.” alongside BLACKPINK’s Rosé, which topped the year-end Billboard Global 200 chart for 2025. The 40-year-old will also embark on his first global stadium outing. The Romantic Tour is set to invade North American stadiums this spring and summer, as the trek will kick off in Las Vegas on April 10.
All the U.S. Tours from Latin Artists Announced for 2026
January 12, 2026
From stadiums to arenas and theaters, Latin artists toured across the United States in 2025, delivering big numbers at the boxscore and memorable experiences for Latin music fans. Shakira proved to be a touring juggernaut with her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, receiving the inaugural Billboard Global Touring Icon Award in honor of her historic Live Nation-produced stint.
The Colombian star’s first 64 dates (of 82) grossed $327.4 million and sold 2.5 million tickets, according to Billboard Boxscore, converting Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran into the highest grossing Latin tour ever by a woman and the second highest grossing Latin tour ever (behind only Luis Miguel’s 2023-24 outing, which grossed $409.5 million).
Meanwhile, Rauw Alejandro‘s Broadway-inspired Cosa Nuestra Tour became a force of its own: Across spring and summer legs in North America and Europe, the concept tour grossed $91.7 million, according to Billboard Boxscore, making Rauw’s fifth tour the most lucrative of his career.
