Jeff Bhasker assisted the artists in co-writing and co-producing the track, with additional writing from Phillip Lawrence. Collin Wolfe, James Fauntleroy, Khalil Walton and Devon Gallaspy performed additional writing for the song. “Uptown Funk” is heavily inspired by 1970s & 1980s funk music. Its composition pays tribute to many of the bands that influenced Mars and Ronson growing up such as Morris Day and The Time, Earth, Wind & Fire and George Clinton as well as new jack swing artists like Bell Biv DeVoe.”
All About That Bass by Meghan Trainor
“All About That Bass” is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor for her 2014 debut EP and her 2014 studio album, Title. The song was written by Trainor and Kevin Kadish, and was produced by Kadish. It is an uptempo doo-wop-influenced pop song with retro style instrumentation. The lyrics describe the positive body image message that “real women have curves”.
The song topped the charts in 58 countries, including the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. In the US, it spent eight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified quadruple-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It shattered several streaming records; it became the first song to sell one million digital copies in a week and debuted at number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100—the highest debut for a single that was not commercially available in stores or online.
Shake It Off by Taylor Swift
The Grammy-winning songstress’ “Shake It Off” is one of the most iconic pop hits of the past decade. And, it turns out, it’s also a pretty great trumpet solo.
Released in 2014, “Shake It Off” was an instant success, spending four weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart and becoming one of Swift’s most well-known songs. The trumpet solo, which comes in at around the 2:50 mark, is played by Raphael Saadiq.
While the rest of the instruments drop out, Saadiq’s trumpet playing gives the song an extra boost of energy and helps to drive the chorus home. It’s a great example of how a well-placed trumpet solo can really make a pop song shine.
