\n\tBruno Mars<\/a> released his debut album in 2010, while Harry Styles<\/a> and his One Direction bandmates dropped theirs in 2011. In the decade and a half since, these two have skyrocketed to superstardom in their own ways \u2014 and then in the past two weeks, they each blessed pop fans with a brand-new project.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast<\/em>, Katie & Keith are taking a closer look at Mars\u2019 The Romantic<\/em> (released Feb. 27) and Styles\u2019 Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally<\/em> (March 6) and where each pop star is in his respective career. For Mars, he\u2019s cementing the loverboy credentials he\u2019s built up through \u201cJust the Way You Are\u201d all the way through Silk Sonic\u2019s 1970s come-ons. For Styles, he\u2019s taking a sonic left turn and introducing his rabid fanbase to new soundscapes and subject matters as they evolve through life together.<\/p>\n
