Despite receiving heavy support on Urban formats, Mario’s “Somebody Else (Ft. Nick MinaJ)” failed to crack the Billboard Hot 100. So, the crooner has lined up a new song called “Fatal Distraction” that he hopes will better his chances of scoring a much needed hit.
Mario is determined to make an impact with his new material and prove that his career far from over. Continuing to plug his music on every available platform, the singer made a guest appearance on The Breakfast Club to talk about his upcoming album, career struggles and more.
Let’s get to know the man behind the music. Yesterday, Mario made a guest appearance on Hot 97 to plug his new single, “Somebody Else”, but discussed much more than just his music. Speaking candidly about his entire career, the singer gave insight into how he was signed and almost lost everything while dealing with personal issues.
Mario is one of the few male R&B artists in the industry today who can actually sing, and that’s because he studies his craft. During his visit to BET’s 106 & Park last evening, the crooner spoke about his love of his music and how he has applied that focus to his upcoming album.
Leaks are usually an artist’s worst enemy but in Mario’s case, this may be a blessing in disguise. Moments ago, the singer’s new video for “Somebody Else” appeared online ahead of schedule yet just in time to give the Nicki Minaj-assisted song some much needed buzz.

Mario’s new single, “Somebody Else”, is in desperate need of a boost on the charts, so he has quickly readied its corresponding video. Featuring Pop star Nicki Minaj, this behind the scenes footage of the shoot shows the duo meeting for what seems to be the first time as Mario does his best to get […]
Mario is certainly enjoying his return to the limelight. For his latest promotional appearance, the crooner visited 92QJams to talk about his upcoming Restoration album, which will be released in September and will feature contributions from J. Cole, Nicki Minaj and probably Sevyn Streeter.
Did you know that Chris Brown recorded a demo of “Somebody Else” long before Mario released the song as his new comeback single? Well, the singer had the track in the vault for months and he finally let the world hear his take, which is surprisingly auto-tune free.
When it first announced that Nicki Minaj would appear on Mario’s new song, “Somebody Else”, fans of the crooner groaned and complained. However, the Polow Da Don-produced track has hit the airwaves and guess what? It’s actually relatively impressive!
