Jason Joel Desrouleaux, known to the world as Jason Derulo, was born on September 21, 1989. This multifaceted American artist has made a significant mark in the music industry as a singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor. Since launching his solo career in two thousand nine, Derulo has impressively sold over two hundred fifty million singles globally, solidifying his status as a pop sensation.
Derulo's journey began when he signed with Beluga Heights, a label owned by the renowned producer J. R. Rotem. His debut single, 'Whatcha Say,' released in May two thousand nine, quickly became a massive hit, selling over five million digital downloads and earning a quintuple platinum certification from the RIAA. This track not only topped the US Billboard Hot 100 but also set the stage for a series of successful releases, including 'In My Head' and 'Ridin' Solo.'
His self-titled debut album, 'Jason Derulo,' released in two thousand ten, was followed by 'Future History' in two thousand eleven, which featured the UK number-one single 'Don't Wanna Go Home.' Derulo continued to captivate audiences with his third album, 'Tattoos,' later rebranded as 'Talk Dirty' in the US, showcasing hits like 'Talk Dirty' and 'Wiggle.'
In two thousand fifteen, he released 'Everything Is 4,' which included the chart-topping single 'Want to Want Me.' His collaboration with New Zealander producer Jawsh 685 on 'Savage Love (Laxed – Siren Beat)' in two thousand twenty marked another high point in his career, reaching number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. After parting ways with Warner Music Group due to creative differences, Derulo signed with Atlantic Records in two thousand twenty-one and is set to release his fifth studio album, 'Nu King,' in two thousand twenty-four.
