Contemporary R&B singer Mario was just a tender teen when his self-titled debut was released in 2002, but by his fourth release, 2007's GO, Mario had matured into an accomplished performer. His radio-ready mix of pop, hip-hop, and urban contemporary style is refined to perfection on GO, with the roster of all-star collaborators paying further tribute to Mario's status in the industry. Songwriting help comes from Ne-Yo, Akon, and Pharell, while producers Scott Storch, Timbaland, and Sean Garrett, among others, helm production duties. Guest appearances by Alicia Keys and Nelly round out this glittering pop-R&B gem.
The youthful R&B sensation Mario was signed to J Records when he was only 15, and hit the ground running with a high-charting debut album in 2002 featuring a popular remake of Biz Markie's "Just a Friend." His 2004 follow-up spawned a number one single co-written by Ne-Yo, "Let Me Love You." By the time he released his fourth, star-studded album in 2007, his vocals, writing, and performance had all matured significantly, making him one of contemporary R&B 's heaviest hitters.
