Bruno Mars Releases X-Rated Collab with Sexyy Red, Featuring Rosé and Lady Gaga

LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Bruno Mars has teamed up with breakout rapper Sexyy Red for the provocative new single “Fat, Juicy & Wet,” released on Jan. 27, 2025. The track, described by Mars as a “strip club anthem,” marks a bold departure from his usual radio-friendly hits, featuring explicit lyrics and a music video with surprise cameos from Rosé and Lady Gaga.

The collaboration showcases Mars’ versatility, blending his signature smooth vocals with Sexyy Red’s unapologetically raunchy style. The lyrics, which include lines like “That good kitty-kitty, good kitty-kitty/Make it my pet,” have sparked both amusement and controversy among fans and critics alike.

Sexyy Red, known for her Miami bass-inspired sound, explained her creative process in a 2024 interview. “I just really go with the flow, however I’m feeling. I don’t try to be like, ‘This specific tape’s gonna be about this,’” she said. “I’ll sit with my team too. They’ll tell me songs they like. I’ll tell them songs I like. We just put them together.”

Mars, fresh off the conclusion of his eight-year Park MGM residency in Las Vegas, has long been enamored with the city’s vibrant culture. “I fell in love with the city very early,” he told a reporter last year. “For the longest time, I’ve romanticized about Las Vegas and what it is. Maybe I just look at Vegas through a different lens. I look at it like Casino and the Rat Pack, everybody in suits, gambling and going out. That’s how I see Las Vegas.”

The music video for “Fat, Juicy & Wet” amplifies the track’s risqué themes, with Mars and Sexyy Red delivering over-the-top performances in a glitzy, Vegas-inspired setting. Rosé and Lady Gaga’s unexpected appearances add an extra layer of star power to the project, further cementing Mars’ reputation as a master collaborator.

Despite its polarizing content, the song has already generated significant buzz, with fans praising its boldness and critics debating its artistic merit. The production, handled by Mars and his longtime collaborators The Stereotypes, blends West Coast ratchet club sounds with a polished, theatrical flair.

As Mars continues to push creative boundaries, “Fat, Juicy & Wet” stands as a testament to his willingness to experiment and evolve as an artist. Whether it becomes a chart-topping hit or a cult favorite, the track is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners.
