APT. (로제 & Bruno Mars) easy version (one hand)

About "APT." - Rosé (BLACKPINK) & Bruno Mars (Easy One-Hand Version)

"APT." is a playful, infectious collaboration between BLACKPINK's Rosé and pop superstar Bruno Mars that took the world by storm in 2024. The song's title refers to a popular Korean drinking game ("Apartment"), and the track perfectly captures the carefree energy of a fun night out with friends. This unexpected pairing showcases both artists' versatility, with Rosé stepping into more Western pop territory while Bruno Mars embraces K-pop's addictive catchiness.

The Collaboration Dream Team

Rosé, born Roseanne Park, is the main vocalist of BLACKPINK, one of the biggest K-pop groups globally. Her distinctive voice and international background (born in New Zealand, raised in Australia) make her perfect for crossover collaborations. Bruno Mars needs no introduction—he's one of the 21st century's most successful pop artists, known for his retro-influenced sound and incredible showmanship. Together, they create a bridge between K-pop and Western pop that feels effortless and natural.

K-Pop Meets Retro Pop

"APT." blends K-pop's production polish and addictive hooks with Bruno Mars' signature retro-pop style. The song features: a simple, memorable chorus that's impossible to forget ("A-P-T!"), retro synths and production reminiscent of 80s pop, playful vocal interplay between Rosé and Bruno, and an upbeat tempo that makes it perfect for parties. The result is a song that works equally well on K-pop playlists and mainstream pop radio.
