Bruno Mars recently made an announcement that Silk Sonic, the R&B duo consisting of himself and Anderson .Paak, will not be submitting their album "An Evening With Silk Sonic" for consideration at the 2023 Grammy Awards. 

Mars shared this news with Rolling Stone, expressing his gratitude and stating that Silk Sonic would gracefully and humbly bow out, even adding a hint of humor by saying "most importantly, sexually" bow out of the awards submission.

Their lead single, "Leave the Door Open," released in April 2021, received four Grammy nominations in 2022 and won in all four categories, including Record of the Year and Single of the Year. With their album released in November of the same year, industry insiders predicted it would be a strong contender for Album of the Year in 2023.
