Maroon 5 recently debuted the music video for the band’s irresistible new gold certified single, “What Lovers Do,” which features Top Dawg Entertainment artist SZA. The track has quickly climbed up the Top 40 and HOT AC radio charts and has already clocked 81 million streams on Spotify and nearly 42 million views on YouTube since its premiere.
“What Lovers Do” is the latest addition to a series of infectious singles Maroon 5 has debuted over the course of the last year. In February, the band delivered the hypnotic single “Cold” featuring Future, which amassed over 236 million Spotify streams and 104 million YouTube/VEVO views and is 2x platinum certified in Canada. The release of “Cold” followed the group’s massive hit single “Don’t Wanna Know,” featuring Kendrick Lamar, which hit the Top 10 in fifteen countries, nearly 320 million YouTube/VEVO views and is now 3x platinum certified in Canada. “Cold” notably tallied the bands 12th Hot 100 top 10, making them the most successful group on the charts history.
Both tracks follow on the heels of Maroon 5’s GRAMMY-nominated six times-platinum selling single “Sugar” —which has amassed a record-setting more than 2 billion YouTube/VEVO views and counting. The track is featured on Maroon 5’s acclaimed album, V, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 and is 3 x platinum certified in Canada, and included additional smash singles “Maps” and “Animals.” All three singles hit #1 on the Top 40 chart.
MAROON 5
Maroon 5 stand out as not only one of pop music’s most enduring artists, but also one of the 21st century’s biggest acts. To date, the universally renowned Los Angeles band have achieved three GRAMMY® Awards and become “the most successful group in the history of the Billboard Hot 100” with 12 Top 10 entries, sold over 20 million albums and 48 million singles worldwide. The band has additionally earned gold and platinum certifications in more than 35 countries. Maroon 5 won over fans and critics alike with the hybrid rock/R&B sound they introduced on their debut album, Songs About Jane and their double platinum album, It Won't be Soon Before Long. In 2010, the band released their third studio album, Hands All Over, which featured the hit singles “Misery” and the anthemic “Moves Like Jagger,” which has become one of the best-selling singles of all time. In 2012, Maroon 5 released Overexposed, which quickly reinforced the group’s status as a powerhouse in popular music with all of the collection’s singles rising to the top of the charts. The band quickly also set a record for the most #1’s (six in total) by a group in the Top 40 chart’s 20-year history. Maroon 5’s most recent studio album, V, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart and featured the hit singles “Maps,” “Animals” and “Sugar,” all of which went #1 on the Top 40 chart. The music video for the album’s GRAMMY- nominated single "Sugar" has notably logged a record setting 2+ billion views to date. 2017 saw the musicians release two additional chart-topping singles, “Don’t Wanna Know” and “Cold,” as well as close out a massive world tour that touched down in 30-plus countries for 120 concerts in front of more than 2.5 million fans.
