Many artists have used relationship breakups to create some of their best music. Global superstar Jason Derulo could be headed that route with his future projects.
The “Wiggle” crooner, who recently spilt from singer Jordin Sparks, told Billboard.com that since his separation from Sparks, he has gotten a newfound determination about his career and family. He continues by telling the online publication, “I think sometimes in life things are place in our lives as a lesson, so you’ve got to take every negative experience and turn that into a positive.”
To make his vision of the latter statement happen, Derulo decides to pen records about his unlucky love story. “I’m somebody who cannot keep those two things separate,” he told Billboard on breakups and music. “Like, I have to put it on paper, put it on wax, put it in my songs. My creativity, my personality won’t allow me to separate the two. If that’s what’s going on in my life, that’s in the songs I make as well.”
Aside from his relationship talk, “The Other Side” singer shared how his latest radio single “Trumpets,” from his Talk Dirty album, was composed. He says that the song was done nearly three years ago. Derulo got the instrumental from a then up-and-coming producer named Jon Bellion, who couldn’t believe that an artist like Derulo wanted to work with him — especially since he didn’t have a “studio-studio.”
Jason gives more juice on the creation of “Trumpets” in his latest interview with Billboard.com. Read it here.
