The Uptown Funk singer announced that a new single, entitled "24K Magic" (pronounced "twenty-four karat magic") will drop Oct. 7.
"Excited to announce 24K Magic, out this Friday!!" he said on Instagram. "You can call it my first single, but I call it the invitation to the party."
24K Magic will be the first song released off his forthcoming third studio album, his first since 2012's Unorthodox Jukebox, which yielded the hits Locked Out of Heaven, When I Was Your Man and Treasure.
No album release date or title of the new album has been announced yet. Still, of the album, Mars reassured his fans on Twitter, "You think I've been playin this whole time? You don't think I'm masterminding the return?"
MY ALBUM IS DONE!
