When Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak joined forces earlier this year for their collaboration project Silk Sonic, we knew it was going to be something special. But, no one predicted the duo to drop one of the biggest tracks of the year when they premiered ‘Leave The Door Open’. After it’s staggering global success, the race was on to drop the perfect follow-up – and ‘Skate’ surely does the trick!
‘Skate’ is the second single off the duo’s upcoming debut album ‘An Evening With Silk Sonic’, which drops later this year.
“I’m excited, ‘Skate’ being our second single, because the sun is out and I’m hoping everybody’s outside, everybody’s at the pool, at the beach, barbecuing, listen to some Silk Sonic,” Bruno told Apple Music. “We wanted everyone to feel like they were floating and gliding, slipping and sliding. And we’re very proud of this record.”
In the video, directed by Bruno and Florent Déchard, the boys celebrate summer by serenading a smooth skate crew with their silky vocals.
