Bruno Mars

Did you know that Bruno Mars is one of the most prolific hit-makers of the last 50 years?

With the recent ascension of his latest single, ‘Locked Out of Heaven’, to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, Mars has earned his first 4 #1 songs on the chart in just 2 years and 10 months. This accomplishment ranks him as the first male solo act to achieve that feat in 48 years.

The last male artist to score his first 4 #1 songs on the Hot 100 in such a short period of time was Bobby Vinton during the 2-year, 6-month period of June 9th 1962 to December 12th 1964. Watch the video for Mars’ ‘Locked Out of Heaven’ below:
