Please Me

Atlantic Records dropped Please Me on February 15, 2019, just one day after Valentine's Day. Cardi B and Bruno Mars teamed up for this smooth R&B and hip-hop ballad that blends 1990s soul aesthetics with modern trap production. The lyrics paint a flirtatious picture of two lovers discussing their romantic plans before heading to the bedroom.

Writers James Fauntleroy and the production team The Stereotypes helped craft the track alongside the artists. Bruno Mars also served as a co-producer alongside Charles Moniz, Ray Romulus, Jonathan Yip, and Jeremy Reeves. Although released as a standalone single, the song later appeared on digital reissues of Cardi B's second studio album, Invasion of Privacy.

Critics praised the seamless chemistry between the rapper and the singer, noting how the track successfully revived 90s R&B vibes while maintaining a contemporary edge. The collaboration bridged the gap between hip-hop and pop-R&B audiences, creating a cultural touchstone for its playful approach to romance. [edit]
