Silk Sonic's "Smokin Out The Window" is a soulful throwback drenched in heartbreak

Silk Sonic, the dynamic duo made up of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, continues to deliver timeless music with their soulful hit “Smokin Out The Window.” Released as part of their debut project An Evening with Silk Sonic, the track showcases their unique blend of classic R&B and modern charisma.

The song captures the pain of love gone wrong—with a playful twist. Bruno and Anderson take turns lamenting over a relationship where they gave everything, only to be left heartbroken. Lines like “This b**** got me paying her rent” are delivered with theatrical flair, perfectly balancing comedy with emotional depth.

The official music video is styled like a 1970s live TV performance. From their velvety suits to synchronized moves and retro stage lighting, the visuals feel like a tribute to Motown and classic soul shows. Bruno croons under the spotlight while Anderson keeps the rhythm tight on the drums, both fully committed to their roles.

What makes this video and song stand out is the chemistry between the two artists. Their vocals blend effortlessly, and their on-screen banter adds a layer of charm and authenticity. It’s clear they’re having fun, and that joy is infectious.

“Smokin Out The Window” isn’t just a song—it’s a throwback experience that feels fresh and nostalgic all at once. With its smooth groove, clever lyrics, and stylish visuals, Silk Sonic has once again proven they’re masters of their craft.
