Which song was the lead single from 24K Magic?

The story behind the answer

The lead single from 24K Magic was “24K Magic.”

Bruno Mars released “24K Magic” on October 7, 2016, as the lead single from his third studio album of the same name. The song arrived with its music video and served as what Mars called an invitation to the party, introducing the album’s glossy blend of funk, disco, and contemporary R&B.

Mars wrote and produced the song with Philip Lawrence and Christopher Brody Brown under the name Shampoo Press & Curl, with additional production from the Stereotypes. Its lyrics celebrate glamour, excess, and nightlife, while its retro production draws on the sound of 1980s and 1990s R&B and funk.

“Finesse,” “Perm,” and “Chunky” are also associated with the album, but they were not the lead single. “That’s What I Like” followed as the second single and later became a major chart success.
