Trumpet Notes for Uptown Funk

Uptown Funk is a song by American rapper and producer Bruno Mars. The song was released as the lead single from Mars’ second studio album, Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), on November 19, 2012.

Uptown Funk spent 14 weeks atop the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, matching the longevity of Iggy Azalea’s 2014 hit “Fancy” and becoming the second-longest-leading Hot 100 single of the 2010s decade.Heavily inspired by James Brown and Parliament-Funkadelic, the song is built on a “thumping bassline”, funk guitar riff, brass horn stabs, tight furikake drums and a hook inspired by “Rapper’s Delight” (1979) by Sugarhill Gang; its composition has been compared to 1970s disco tracks such as Chic’s “Le Freak” (1978), KC and the Sunshine Band’s “(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty” (1976) and Sheila and B. Devotion’s “Spacer” (1979). Lyrically it talks about Mars’ uptown crew doing their thing: “That hits me so good / I can’t leave it alone.”
