BRUNO MARS AND ROSÉ’S NEW SONG
The pop duo have teamed up to create a vibrant track that blends their unique styles, resulting in a catchy anthem that is already taking over social media, according to Billboard.
The song’s title, Apt., comes from a popular Korean drinking game that Rosé introduced to her crew during a studio session.
This playful interaction quickly became the foundation for the song.
“It’s a simple game, but it breaks the ice at any party,” explained.
