Nov 14, 2021The Chemistry between Bruno Mars and Anderson is incredible, they use their vocal abilities in their favor, the funky production throughout the album is filled with incredible bass-lines, fun harmonies, groovey songs, etc. Must Listen!
-
May 21, 2022I think this is top 3 best albums of 2021. Every song is amazing, it really lights up my mood and makes me wanna dance each one. There’s nothing to criticize for me. Bruno and Anderson make such a great team, I hope they continue together in the future.
-
Nov 12, 2021I knew that Bruno's vocals were god tier, but damn, Anderson can really sing.
-
Nov 13, 2021Me senti bastante conflictuado al escuchar este album, debido a que no estaba seguro si queria darsela toda a bruno mars o a anderson paak
-
Nov 13, 2021great album, definitely incredible. stand out song for me is "777" which is just amazing overall, I love the beginning.
-
Nov 14, 2021An all together beautiful experience, the track list may be short but it fulfills what it sets out to do. Brunos silky smooth vocals play of Paaks more versatile vocals very well.
-
Nov 23, 2021An amazing relaxing album, just what 2021 needed. I love this collaboration and the authentic acoustic instruments used really add to the vibe of the album. Gave it a 9 because I feel like the lyrics could be improved, but the songs that they are strong in, really are strong! Overall I love it.
-
Nov 26, 2021Cool album. Good songs but very short since we already heard half of them before release though
-
Dec 6, 2021This album is an incredible tribute to the past legends of Motown, combining Bruno’s stunning falsettos with Anderson. Paak’s silky lyrics and unique drum style. In an era of music that has been dominated by rap and pop, it’s truly refreshing to listen to a new wave of funk, soul and R&B sounds. This is the collaboration we didn’t want, but we needed.

Dec 7, 2021No contemporary homage to classic R&B/soul/funk would ever dream to be as well played, well produced, atmospheric and dreamscaping as Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak’s long-awaited wunderkind of a collaboration.

Nov 21, 2021A really incredible album from the start to the end. A great collaboration.
-
Jan 9, 2022expensive production, funny lyrics, but some songs sound too similar which would've been ok if the album had more songs
best track: Leave The Door Open or Fly As Me
worst track: Blast Off
8.5/10 -
Dec 2, 2021really want to give it a 9, but it just barely missed the mark on that. otherwise its a fantastic album. Fly as me is one of my favorite paak songs in years

Nov 12, 2021I genuinely wanna know how Bruno does it to make painfully average albums with zero novelty or true originality behind them and people always act like he dropped a masterpiece.
This album is bare bones good, so a 7 is as high as it'll get -

Nov 15, 2021I don’t understand the hype around this debut album, it’s very mediocre. Some tracks are really good, most are fillers. I love Anderson Paak, but I expected more. It’s a bad move to form a band with a mainstream singer, Anderson music is so good by itself.
-
Nov 12, 2021Weak Melodies, easy go-to 70’s production that isn’t surprising or inventive. Great performance technically but there’s nothing really stand out or creative here. I can’t see myself memorizing the tunes at all. Very smooth generic background vibes. If you like that kind of dull cheesy vintage sound than ok, but it just sounds so empty yet so overcrowded.
-
Nov 13, 2021Muito ruim. Parece tudo a mesma coisa, sem contar nas músicas chata pra caray. Que bosta
-
Nov 16, 2021The most generic album I have ever heard, i'ts so bad. Don't listen to it, it's not worth your time.
-
Aug 21, 2022just pure cringe. I didn't find anything inspiring from the album just cursive singing.
-
Nov 13, 2021what would this be without the nostalgia, nothing. no new concepts or production, no storytelling and the lyrics are corny
-
Nov 21, 2021I was bored I feel like I’ve heard all these songs before from Bruno Mars
Awards & Rankings
-
Nov 23, 2021Clocking in at nine tracks and 31 minutes, Mars and Paak are in and out, delivering their best impression of ’70s funk, soul and R&B — albeit each track is so spit polished and clean, it noticeably lacks the raw charm of the original. But that in no way means An Evening With Silk Sonic doesn’t have its merits.
-
Nov 22, 2021It’s not cynical and calculated enough to be a shameless cash-grab yet it’s not self-indulgent enough to be a vanity project. Perhaps it’s just a stopgap in the catalogues of two big-selling artists; an intended homage to the music that made Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak. They’re making this music because they like it, because they want to, and because they can.
-
Nov 19, 2021Yes, it’s all cheesy as a vat of fondue. But it’s also a lot of fun.
