Personally of the opinion that still no one who knows who Anderson Paak is but that at least people can be aware “Silk Sonic” is a Bruno Mars side band or project or whatever
Paak has twice the monthly listeners of Frank Ocean and Tyler The Creator
Two counterarguments: 1) I was at a bar last week with a friend and the DJ played “Am I Wrong” and she had no idea who Anderson Paak was but got real excited when he played “Slide” since Frank Ocean was on it. 2) I think Paak’s monthly listener counts are a bit inflated right now since he’s credited on Spotify as a featured artist on all the Silk Sonic stuff.
I imagine it’s made Andy bigger but do I find him to be a pop star? No. Similarly I don’t find Mark Ronson to be a pop star, who literally had Uptown Funk released under his name because Bruno just far blows him out in popularity
yo I'm gonna ask at trivia this week "who is credited as the lead artist on Uptown Funk?" and see if anyone gets it right
I mean Slide is like a perfect song at a bar or club so that's tough competition
The DJ also ended up playing Classixx’s “All You’re Waiting For” which I got really excited about but then my friend called it “white people music” which is wildly unfair to Nancy Whang but not a 100% unfair assessment either.
if a white woman over 40 comes up to me at a DJ gig there's a 237% chance she's gonna ask for a Bruno Mars song
I use to DJ at a fancy rooftop bar in Miami and whenever someone would request me to play “despacito” I would just slow down the BPM of the track I was playing
