## Storia

Mars dopo il diploma si trasferisce per inseguire il suo sogno di diventare cantante a Los Angeles, il successo però non arriva subito, almeno fino a quando Mars non conosce Philip Lawrence, compositore che lo convince a scrivere brani per altri artisti, fomando così The Smeezingtons. I due realizzano così il brano Long Distance, pubblicato nel 2008 e cantato dall'artista Brandy Norwood. L'anno successivo avviene la svolta quando co-firmano il singolo Right Round per il rapper Flo Rida, che raggiunge la vetta della classifica in USA. Nel 2010 partecipano alla produzione di successi internazionali come Fuck You! di Cee Lo Green e Wavin' Flag di K'naan. Le prime produzioni dove Mars scrive e canta sono Nothin' on You, canzone per B.o.B., e in Billionaire di Travie McCoy. Nello stesso producono l'EP di debutto intitolato It's Better If You Don't Understand. Hanno inoltre scritto brani per Alexandra Burke, Adam Levine, Brandy, Adam Lambert, Sean Kingston e per le Sugababes. Dopo il notevole successo commerciale di Nothin' on You l'11 maggio 2010. producono e pubblicano il suo primo album di Mars nel 2010, intitolato Doo-Wops & Hooligans. Successivamente nel 2011 producono canzoni che avranno grande successo cantate da Mars tra cui It Will Rain e Mirror. Nel 2012 lavorano insieme a Mark Ronson per il secondo album di Mars Unorthodox Jukebox. Nel 2014 coo-producono e scrivono le canzoni per l'album di Mark Ronson, Uptown Special dove una traccia (Uptown Funk) è cantata interamente da Mars.
