“APT.” is a collaborative single by ROSÉ of BLACKPINK and Bruno Mars, released on October 18, 2024.
The song is inspired by a Korean drinking game called “Apartment” and features both artists singing the Korean pronunciation “apateu” (아파트) throughout the track.
The upbeat pop-punk anthem showcases a departure from ROSÉ’s previous laid-back style, inviting listeners to chant along.
The collaboration came about when ROSÉ taught Bruno Mars the Korean drinking game, which led to the song’s creation.
Key details:
- Release date: October 18, 2024
- Genre: Pop-punk
- Inspiration: Korean drinking game “Apartment”
- Part of ROSÉ’s debut full-length album “rosie” (releasing December 6, 2024)
