Jason Derulo’s self titled debut album contains five hits: the Billboard #1 debut ‘Whatcha Say’ that sold 4.5 million copies, his first UK #1 single ‘In My Head’, the enduringly popular ‘Ridin’ Solo’ that peaked at #2 and the recent most singles ‘What If’ and ‘The Sky’s The Limit’, In total, 1.3 million of his single sales have occurred in the UK.
“It’s definitely a music lover’s album,” he says. “It reflects all my different influences, but it’s deeply rooted in pop. My vision for the album was to make music that would impact the world. And by that I mean that music is a healing thing. When you play your favourite song, you can forget all your troubles for three minutes. I want to provide those getaway moments for people.”
