There’s a reason they call it falling in love: it happens in a snap when you least expect it, makes you look f**king ridiculous and is liable to leave cuts and bruises if you’re not careful. Ever the gentleman, however, Mario goes the extra mile to ensure the object of his affection doesn’t take a nasty spill on his latest effort, tentative mixtape inclusion Falling Down. Backed by the tried-and-true guitar/synth grooves of frequent collaborator Rico Love, the R&B heavyweight promises to have the lucky female floating on cloud nine by the time Cupid’s arrow makes its fateful impact: “You don’t have to make a move, just lay in the air and I’ll be right there, right there next to you…” And she doesn’t need to worry about being unceremoniously dumped when he loses interest—as the 3rd Street/RCA crooner goes on to explain, he’s committed to being there for her, “...all night, all day, all of [her] life.” Mario’s forthcoming street album, Truth Be Told, still lacks a release date. Keep your browsers locked on The DJBooth for the latest on that project, as well as on the singer’s next studio album, Restoration, due out later this year.

Word is that this will be placed on a pre-album mixtape release. Which is good, because it is not single-worthy. With that said, even at less than 100% Mario still makes quality R&B pop jams. I'm ready for some album cuts.

Not a bad track, but nothing really stood out to me on this one.

Wonderful track, shouldh've been the single instead of The Walls (which grew on me after a while, imo, this is more instant).

Solid Mario song here. This does sound good... but I feel it is missing something... it dosen't particularly stand out. Also agree with Z, this is not somthing you would hear as a single.

It's about time we get a new Mario album and a few new joints to go with it. Mario's voice grows and he still sounds great. I like the melody and the "smoothness" of this track. This is like the appetizer to the album and now I want the full course. Good work.

Who is this guy? Haven't seen him around in a while. Sounds like he hasn't missed a beat. Good start Mario!
