Mario in Billboard

Mario is featured in Billboard for the success of his recent single "Break Up", off his new album D.N.A. Take a look at an excerpt of the article below:

The last time Mario saw the pinnacle of Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart was in 2005. That's when "Let Me Love You"-from his 2004 second album, "Turning Point"-reached No. 1. Four years and two albums later, the Baltimore crooner finds himself close to reclaiming that zenith.

This week, "Break Up" logs its 11th week at No. 2 on the tally. Featuring Sean Garrett and Gucci Mane, it's the lead single from Mario's fourth album, "D.N.A." Debuting this week at No. 9 on the Billboard 200 and No. 2 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, the J Records/RCA Music Group set was released Oct. 13. "Break Up" also gives Mario his fourth top five R&B hit, joining predecessors "Just a Friend," which reached No. 4 in 2002, and the Ne-Yo-penned "Let Me Love You" and "Crying Out for Me," which peaked at No. 5 in 2008.
