Bruno Mars sure knows how to tease his fans.
On Wednesday, the artist returned to Twitter for the first time in more than a week to toy with his followers by letting them know that something—"a lil sumn sumn summmmm," to be exact—was on its way. The Twitter-verse immediately speculated that it would be Bruno's music video for "That's What I Like," his second single from 24K Magic, but he kept them waiting (and waiting and waiting) before revealing anything. And even once he did confirm that the video was dropping, the suspense didn't stop there: "Just finished shootin it! I'm gonna edit it, take a bubble bath & then we party. Gimme 2 hours," he tweeted last night.
Finally, after torturing his fans for nearly 24 hours, Bruno delivered, as promised, and debuted the "That's What I Like" music video, and, naturally, it was well worth the wait. The video features Bruno wearing head-to-toe black, white, and gold, with his signature shades on, serving up his insane, Michael Jackson-esque dance moves against a plain black backdrop. Accenting the choreography is white animation that coordinates with the lyrics. The combination of the cartoons with Bruno's infectious smile and addictive lyrics makes for a music video that you simply cannot watch just once. Consider yourself warned.

Bruno most recently performed "That's What I Like" at the 2017 Grammy Awards. The feel-good performance helped to skyrocket the song's popularity, pushing it to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B chart his first song ever to lead the chart) and making it his 14th Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. But if re-watching his recent Grammys performance and this new music video on a loop is just not enough Bruno for you, never fear: The artist takes off on his 24K Magic tour this summer, starting July 15.
