Mario is getting ready to release a new album, his first one in six years.
After releasing his new single, “Space,” the singer is ready to release his upcoming album, “Glad You Came.” Mario’s album is set to be released on Dec. 13 and it is executive produced by songwriter, James Fauntleroy.
In a recent interview, Mario said, “My successes and failures in the department of love and my imagination are what helped me to create this body of work.” He continued, “I had the pleasure of creating alongside James Fauntleroy, who executive-produced this project and wrote multiple songs with me. We have the same mission in our hearts of helping to preserve the art form.”
Mario added, “Being able to create new textures and ways to invite intimacy and imagination back into R&B, Glad You Came embodies the very essence of the quality of classic R&B and retro-futuristic sound that can be played in any space. There’s a level of vulnerability and confidence that permeates this serving.”
