Who Wrote The Lyrics For 'How You Like That'?

There’s something about hearing 'That's What I Like' come on in a grocery store or while washing dishes that makes me grin every single time. I used to hum the chorus under my breath on long commutes, and that curiosity led me down the credits page: the lyrics were crafted by a small team of collaborators centered on Bruno Mars. Specifically, the songwriters credited are Bruno Mars, Philip Lawrence, Christopher Brody Brown (often just called Brody Brown), James Fauntleroy, and the members of The Stereotypes team—Jonathan Yip, Ray Romulus, and Jeremy Reeves. Those names show up together a lot in modern pop and R&B, and you can hear their fingerprints in the song's slick, confident lines. The timeline is kind of fun too. The track was recorded during the sessions for Bruno's album '24K Magic' and the album itself was released on November 18, 2016. So while the exact pen-and-paper moments probably took place earlier in 2016 (the creative window for that record was roughly 2015–2016), the public first got the song with the album drop in November 2016. It later became a single and got pushed to radio in early 2017—officially released as a single around late January 2017—and climbed the charts, eventually hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 2017. Beyond just the names and dates, I love thinking about how modern pop songwriting is so collaborative. A line you sing without thinking often carries the input of seven people, producers, and studio vibes from late-night sessions. Knowing who wrote 'That's What I Like' makes me appreciate how many hands and ears shape those catchy lines—plus it gives me someone to thank next time I catch myself dancing in a parking lot.

You know, I stumbled upon this exact search a while back when I was deep into BLACKPINK's 'How You Like That' phase. The official YouTube channel for BLACKPINK often includes subtitles in multiple languages, including English, for their music videos. If you're looking for the lyrics with translation, sites like Genius or ColorCodedLyrics are gold mines—they break down the Korean lyrics line by line with Romanized versions and English translations. Sometimes fan communities on platforms like Reddit or even Twitter threads dive into lyrical interpretations, adding cultural context that straight translations might miss. I remember one thread comparing the poetic nuances of the Korean lyrics to the English translation—fascinating stuff if you're into language details. For audio with synced lyrics, Musixmatch works great if you stream via Spotify or Apple Music.

I stumbled upon 'Lirik How You Like That' while browsing through fan-made content, and it immediately caught my attention with its energetic vibe. At first glance, it feels like a mashup of K-pop and gaming culture, blending BLACKPINK's original track with a rhythm game twist. The genre is hard to pin down precisely—it's part music cover, part interactive experience, with a dash of meme culture. The way it remixes the song into something gamers can engage with is brilliant, almost like 'Beat Saber' but with a Korean pop flavor. What really stands out is how it bridges two worlds: the flashy, high-energy style of K-pop and the hands-on fun of gaming. It doesn’t fit neatly into one category, which makes it so refreshing. If I had to label it, I’d call it 'interactive music entertainment'—a genre that’s still evolving but feels like the future of fan engagement.

The lyrics for 'That's What I Like' were penned by Bruno Mars alongside a team of talented collaborators, including Philip Lawrence, Christopher Brody Brown, James Fauntleroy, and Johnathan Yip. It's one of those tracks where every writer's flair shines through—Mars' signature playful charm, Lawrence's knack for catchy hooks, and Fauntleroy's smooth R&B sensibilities. The song feels like a perfect cocktail of their styles, blending humor, luxury, and romance into something irresistibly danceable. I love how the lyrics play with opulence and relatability at the same time. Lines like 'Jump in the Cadillac' and 'sex by the fire at night' are pure fantasy, but the way Mars delivers them makes it feel like he's winking at the listener. It’s no surprise the track won a Grammy—every word feels intentional, like they had a blast crafting it. That collaborative energy is probably why it’s still on my playlist years later.
