Rose and Bruno Mars APT

APT
by ROSE & BRUNO MARS


APT. is a single by BLACKPINK idol ROSÉ and Bruno Mars, lifted from ROSÉ's debut solo album rosie.

How do you pronounce ROSÉ and Bruno Mars's APT.?

The title APT. is pronounced as it's sung in the chorus; ap-a-teu. Apateu (아파트) is actually the Korean pronunciation of 'apartment.'

APT. draws inspiration from Korean drinking culture and, specifically, a popular drinking game known as 'the apartment game.'

What does ROSÉ and Bruno Mars's APT. song mean?

Explaining the backstory to the song through her agency The Black Label, ROSÉ tells us what APT means:

"APT. is actually my favorite Korean drinking game that I play with my friends back home. It’s so simple, puts a smile on your face and breaks the ice at any party.

"One night in the studio, I taught my crew how to play the game. Everyone was fascinated, especially when I started the chant, so we played around with it and I said we should make a song out of it and, after Bruno joined the track, the rest became history!"

What song does ROSÉ and Bruno Mars's APT. sample?

Recognise that beat? APT. interpolates Toni Basil's 1982 hit Mickey, with its writers Michael Chapman and Nicholas Chinn credited as songwriters on the track.
