Dancing Shadows

Dancing Shadows is the fifth studio album from American singer and songwriter Mario, released on October 5, 2018. The release of the album marks the first under the singer's own imprint New Citizen Music, in partnership with EMPIRE Distribution. Dancing Shadows is the first project by the singer that features his own songwriting on every track.

The album serves as a follow-up to his fourth album D.N.A. (2009) and his first studio effort in almost a decade. It was executive produced by Mario and English producer Jake Gosling, with additional producers xSDTRK, Daecolm, Pham, J Warner, P2J and Ryan McDermott.

The album's lead single, "Drowning" was released on July 20, 2018, along with the accompanying music video, while the second single, "Dancing Shadows" was released on September 14, 2018, and also includes an accompanying music video.

The album failed to chart on the US Billboard 200. To further promote the album, Mario appeared as an opening act for B2K on The Millennium Tour.

In August 2011, RCA Music Group announced it was disbanding J Records along with Arista Records and Jive Records. With the shutdown, Mario, and all other artists previously signed to these three labels, will release his future albums on the RCA Records label.

During his appearance on BET's 106 & Park on July 10, 2013, to premiere, the video for "Somebody Else", Mario stated that he felt the album recorded with Rico Love did not feel part of his career plan and that he scrapped that album and went on to record his then-titled album Evolve, which was set to be released on September 17, 2013. The album was not released, and Mario left RCA Records in 2015.

In mid-2015, Mario announced that he has reunited with Scott Storch, who produced his 2004 hit "Let Me Love You", on a new album, titled Never 2 Late for a song called "Enemy", that ended up being finished by Chris Brown and published on his album Heartbreak on a Full Moon. Never 2 Late was scheduled to be released on November 27, 2015, but was pushed to December 4, 2015, but the album was not released.

On May 6, 2016, Mario premiered and released the single "I Need More". On December 13, 2016, he released the single "Let Me Help You". On June 16, 2017, he released the single "Pain is the New Pleasure". A remixed version of "Let Me Help You" featuring Jamaican recording artist Konshens was released on August 18, 2017.
