"It's one of those albums that will take you on a journey," Mars said of the record during an interview with iHeartRadio in March. "And if you listen to it from one to 10, I really feel like you will understand what has been going on with me in the past couple years."
During the interview, he also said that he was attempting to be very honest with Unorthodox Jukebox's music. Additionally, he hoped that the new material, especially his single Locked Out Of Heaven, would allow people to understand that he's a versatile artist.
