I got a chance to accompany Singer/Song writer sensation Mario. While he visited Chicago to promote his new mix tape and single “The Walls”. It was a day filled with interviews, performances, love and laughter. I can tell you one thing: after seeing what one artist goes through in just one day, being a superstar is more than what meets the eye.

In this video, we take you for a sneak peek into a day in the life of Mario while he visits various places in Chicago. Mario loves Chicago and all the love he gets from the city as he coins Chicago as one of the first places he got his start. While visiting WGCI, Mario sits down with Demi Lobo in the Coke Lounge and gives a very in depth interview. Find out what Chicago artist he would love to do a collaboration with and more!

Mario is a hardworking talented and dedicated artist who loves his fans.. just as much as they love him. Be on the look out for his new album Restoration, which is due to hit stores February 7th 2012.
