Rosé and Bruno Mars deliver a vivacious pop-darling duet with the "Apt." MV

You must be living under a rock or in a cave on a faraway island if you haven’t heard the vivacious and enticing track "Apt." by BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Bruno Mars, marking their first collaboration. Derived from the Korean pronunciation of "apartment," "Apt." is a non-serious, goofy, and enjoyable drinking game that's popular among Koreans when they gather for an evening of drinks, games, and banter.

 

"Apt." serves as the pre-release track for Rosé's first full-length album and her overall sophomore album, Rosie, set to release on December 6. The song is fun, frisky, flippant, and thoroughly entertaining. It’s the kind of track that keeps you listening, bobbing your head, and getting up to dance, whether you're hungover or completely sober.

The song showcases Rosé and Bruno Mars' vocal prowess, tonality, and style perfectly. The music video has a whimsical, quirky vibe with touches of madness, including the BLACKPINK singer giving Bruno Mars a sweet peck on the cheek and him singing a few words in Korean while holding South Korea's national flag.

 

"Apt." sets the tone for what fans can expect from Rosé's upcoming album, Rosie, and it promises to be a pop-darling album for the ages.
