"Skate" was well received by music critics, some of whom praised the retro 1970s sound and found it to be perfect for the summer. The song charted moderately in several countries; in North America, it reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the top 20 in Canada. Elsewhere, the song topped the charts in Israel, peaked at number 12 in New Zealand and it also entered the top 20 Flanders region of Belgium. The accompanying music video was directed by Florent Dechard, Mars, and co-directed by Philippe Tayag, being released along with the song. It depicts Mars and .Paak performing the song outdoors in a tropical location as several women roller-skate around them. Silk Sonic performed the song during their concert residency An Evening with Silk Sonic at Park MGM (2022).[1]

Background edit

In late February 2021, Mars and .Paak announced on social media the formation of their new band Silk Sonic and revealed the artwork for their debut studio album An Evening with Silk Sonic (2021). On March 5 that year, they released their first single "Leave the Door Open".[2] The duo teased new music in the months leading up to the release of "Skate".[3] After performing "Leave the Door Open" at the BET Awards 2021, they tempted fans with a new song, which was later revealed to be "a hoax".[4] On July 28, 2021, .Paak posted a picture of a red car with the phrase "You've Been Invited To Silk Sonic's Summertime Jam This Friday" on Twitter, hinting at an impending release.[5]

In an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1's show New Music Daily, Mars said the track "came about as part of thought exercise in the studio" as he and his team were imagining they were performing a song "in the middle of a roller rink", and the way the bass, guitar, and drums would sound. Mars added; "And I wanted to play congas and that's what you get. You get a song called 'Skate'. Talking about I'm trying to float. I'm trying to glide."[6][7] He affirmed that "Skate" was chosen as the second single "because the sun is out." Mars hoped that "Everybody's at the pool, at the beach, barbequing, listen to some Silk Sonic." Silk Sonic wanted people to "feel like they were floating and gliding, slipping and sliding."[8]

Release and production edit

On July 30, 2021, Aftermath Entertainment and Atlantic Records released "Skate" as the album's second single via digital download and streaming services in several countries.[9] On the same date, Warner Music Group (WMG) also issued the track for radio airplay in Italy.[10] On August 2, 2021, the track was sent to American adult contemporary, hot adult contemporary and modern adult contemporary radio stations.[11] WMG released "Skate" to Australian contemporary hit radio on August 6, 2021.[12]

"Skate" was written by Mars, Brandon Anderson, Dernst Emile II, James Fauntleroy, Domitille Degalle, and JD Beck. It was produced by Mars and D'Mile; Mars played sitar, guitar, congas, and percussion, while D'Mile sang background vocals, as well as playing Rhodes piano and bass guitar. .Paak played the drums and David Foreman played rhythm guitar. Glenn Fischbach played cello; Jonathan Kim and Steve Heitlinger played viola; Blake Espy, Emma Kummrow and Gared Crawford, Natasha Colkett, Tess Varley, and Luigi Mazzocchi played violin. Larry Gold did the arrangement and conduction of the strings at Milkboy Studios, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with co-arrangement by Steve Tirpak.

Serban Ghenea mixed "Skate" at MixStar Studios in Virginia Beach, John Hanes served as the mix engineer and Bryce Bordone as mixing assistant. The song was mastered by Randy Merrill at Sterling Sound, NYC.[13]

Composition edit

Musically, "Skate" is a disco, funk and R&B song.[14][15][16] The song starts as "a high-drama anthem of stormy betrayal" and evolves "into a sunburst of roller-disco elation with a melody that could've owned any summer during the [President Gerald Ford] administration".[17] Its instrumentation includes "rhythmic guitars, glockenspiel, Latin percussion, back-talking string section and the rising bridge" with a late '70's sound, as well as congas.[18][19] "Skate" is described as a "horny track", due to its lyrics; .Paak sings at one point; "If being fine was a crime, girl, they'd lock your lil' fine ass up in a tower".[20]

Sheet music for "Skate" is in the key of D minor with a tempo of 112 beats per minute.[21] .Paak "coos, booty-struck", on the later verses.[22] On the bridge, Mars croons, while .Paak "opens up to the love interest" with a "raspy delivery".[23] Silk Sonic shows "vintage vocal exhortations".[16] The song's lyrics discuss roller skating, and are an invitation for young women to a dance floor.[24][25]

"Skate" has been described as a "silky-smooth jam" and "groovy".[26][27] Daniel Peters from NME described the track as "smooth and blissed" with Mars' and .Paak's vocals "harmonising on its upbeat refrain".[28] Jason Lipshutz from Billboard called the song an "uptempo, beach-ready single".[14] Lars Brandle, also writing for Billboard, said "Skate" has a "funky throwback '70s vibe".[29] In a similar view, Scott Croker of Idolator said Silk Sonic issued "another dose of '70s nostalgia", describing the track as "a funky smooth tune".[15] Clash's Robin Murray said the single was inspired by 1970s soul-funk and shares "a blissful, sunshine feel, tapping into that uplifting West Coast feeling".[30] Charu Shina of Vulture also said the track was inspired by 1970s music and called it a "kind of smooth, funky summer jam".[20] Consequence's staff and Mary Siroky described "Skate" as a "flashy, '70s jam" and an "euphoric groove with an absolutely unstoppable string section".[31]

Lipshutz compared "Skate" to Mars's 2013 track "Treasure".[14] Variety's Jem Aswad compared its sound to the "disco-era acts like Tavares and mid-tempo tracks from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack [(1977)]".[16] Jon Pareles of The New York Times said the song is a tentative of "recreating the sounds and structures of the era when 1970s soul melted into disco".[18] Similarly, Sophie Caraan from Hypebeast said the duo take "structural cues from the smooth tunes of the '70s, adding layers of their harmonic vocals to pay homage" to the decade.[32] Hot Press's Pat Carty said "Skate" sounds like a track produced by Gamble and Huff that could have been "included on a Car Wash sequel soundtrack".[24]

Critical reception edit

"Skate" was met with acclaim from music critics. Variety's Aswad said the song continues to show Silk Sonic's "loving tribute to the mid-1970s", calling it a "pitch-perfect throwback".[16] Althea Legaspi of Rolling Stone said Mars and .Paak delivered with their promise of a "Summertime Jam" and noted the song's "buoyant, sunny vibes".[33] Croker from Idolator dubbed "Skate" ""the perfect follow-up" to" 'Leave The Door Open'", and said listeners will have the song "on repeat on [their] Spotify".[15] Vibe's Datwon Thomas said the duo "serve up another dance floor scorcher ... with that same ""sing-a-long feel" of" of 'Leave The Door Open' ", ultimately calling the track "stellar".[27] Sabrina Park from Harper's Bazaar said "Skate" could "be our next favorite summer anthem", calling it a "certified bop".[34]

Gabrielle Pierre, writing for NPR, praised Silk Sonic for their ability to "authentically reproduce sounds of Motown for today's contemporary audience, coupling modern melodies with classic retro rhythms and reverting to revered melodies, technique and instrumentation".[25] Under the Radar's Mark Refern called the song an "irresistible slice of smooth retro soul".[35] Shina of Vulture also said the song "holds up to repeated listening".[20] Hypebeast writer Caraan opined the track was "one of the most infectious musical offerings of the year".[32] Joe Walker, for HipHopDX, dubbed the song "infectious".[36] Stereogum's staff praised the "effortless" song, saying that despite not bringing anything new, it is "pure early-disco cosplay" and "an irresistible late-summer shimmer".[19]

When reviewing the album, Jon Dolan from Rolling Stone called "Skate" the "best song on the record".[17] In a similar review, Variety's Aswad dubbed "Skate" a "rollerena anthem" and drew attention to the "priceless" verses such as "In a room full of dimes, you'd be a hundred dollars" and "You smell better than a barbecue".[37] NME's Sophie Williams wrote; "there are gorgeously subtle flourishes throughout" the album that are evident on "the crisp, pristine blasts of percussion that uplift...'Skate'."[38] Candace McDuffie, for Paste, said the song's sound "could have easily felt tired and redundant", but added there is "enough feel-good percussion and cheesy one-liners directed at a love interest to glisten and shine".[39] Joe Rivers of No Ripcord said "Skate" is the disco song "you've heard a million times before, "but gains due to its "sheer enthusiasm".[40] Sputnikmusic's Sowing praised the track, calling it "adorable" and "entertaining" while noting its romantic theme. Sowing also said the song includes "a slippery synth line" and humorous verses as it compares "the emotional space between the narrator and his partner to skaters drifting apart".[41]

Accolades edit

Siroky and the staff of Consequence considered "Skate" the Top Song of the Week on July 30, 2021, saying the single "is the perfect late season bop, all the joyful energy of a cookout, rooftop party, or (naturally) a long skate session under palm trees".[31] Stereogum's staff placed "Skate" among "The 5 Best Songs of the Week" on August 6, 2021, describing it as "deliriously sunny and specific Philly soul homage".[19] The song was also included on Under the Radar's Songs of the Week on July 30, 2021; Redfern said, "It's incredibly cheesy ... but it's also hard to argue with such a joyous song."[42]

Music video edit

The music video for "Skate" was released alongside the song on July 30, 2021, and was directed by Mars and Florent Déchard, while co-directed by Philippe Tayag.[64] The video is a "vintage visual" depicting Mars and .Paak playing drums that are backed by a band in an impromptu street party at a tropical outdoor location.[64][16][27] At the same time, young women in shorts roller-skate around them.[16] Cierra Chérie, one of the roller-skaters in the music video, did not know who the video they were filming was for until the day of the shoot. She said; “I learned a new level of excellence from Bruno Mars and Andy as well as some of the other roller skaters ... they were on the whole time ... they were ready to perform, they were high energy".[65]

Variety's Aswad said the music video is "pitch-perfect" and "a carefree welcome tonic in a tough time".[16] Thomas from Vibe said the video has a "high energy appeal".[27] Legaspi from Rolling Stone called it "nostalgic, feel-good".[33] Walker from HipHopDX also described the video as "feel-good".[36] Writing for American Songwriter, Tina Benitez-Eves wrote the "vintage visuals fit the blissed-out funk and soul of Silk Sonic".[66] USA Today's Jenna Ryu said the music video shows the "'70s feel-good nostalgia" so people "feel as if they're gliding, slipping and sliding into the summer".[67] Park from Harper's Bazaar said the video takes viewers "into summer with its warm and inviting hues, harboring the familiar feel-good disco-R&B nostalgia with its '70s-inspired fashion and cinematographic moments".[34]
