In a collaboration no one saw coming, Bruno Mars and Sexyy Red joined forces for their new single, Fat Juicy & Wet, a playful and provocative strip club anthem.
The unexpected duo dropped the track alongside a vibrant music video featuring cameos by Mars’s former collaborators Lady Gaga and BLACKPINK’s Rosé.
The song, which blends Sexyy Red’s raunchy style with Mars’s smooth, genre-crossing vocals, has sparked a whirlwind of reactions online. While some fans are reveling in the track’s fun, unapologetically bold energy, others were less impressed, calling it a rare miss for the Grammy-winning artist.
On X/Twitter, fans expressed shock over Mars’s lyrics, with one user noting, “It’s shocking to hear all of this come out of Bruno Mars’s mouth.” Others compared the track to Mars’s previous collaboration with Cardi B, Please Me, calling the earlier hit superior.
