The Jason Derulo Car Collection is among the most remarkable collections ever and features vehicles like Lamborghinis, Bentleys, and many more. He spent about $222,000 on his Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, about $202,000 on his Bentley Continental GT C, about $459,000 on his Rolls Royce Wraith, about $147,000 on a BMW i8, about $156,000 on a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, and about $76,000 on a Cadillac Escalade.

House

The Florida native has a $3 million residence in Tarzana, a suburb of Los Angeles, and spent an additional $3.6 million to buy a relatively brand-new house in Encino, a nearby neighborhood. The house has 5.5 bathrooms, five bedrooms, and a double-gated driveway. The home is painted bright white, has black window trim, and has a front-facing, two-car garage, much like the other modern farmhouses surrounding the San Fernando Valley and Westside areas of Los Angeles.

Record Label

After discovering him, J.R. Rotem, a music producer, found Derulo and signed him to Beluga Heights Records and Warner Bros. Records. He has also been affiliated with Atlantic and Asylum Records. Derulo’s TikTok success earned him a new record deal with Atlantic.

After a lengthy negotiation, Derulo announced in May 2020 that he had terminated his record deal with Warner Bros. Records owing to artistic disagreements. Derulo did, however, promise that new music would be released later in 2020. By leaving the label, he also postponed the release of 2Sides (Side 2). In June 2020, Derulo and Jawsh 685’s song “Savage Love (Laxed – Siren Beat)” rose in popularity on TikTok and peaked at number one in the UK, becoming Derulo’s fifth number-one single there. Unfortunately, the song’s central sample from Jawsh 685 wasn’t authorized and attributed correctly. After resolving the clearance issue, the song was re-released, with both artists receiving credit.

BTS later remixed the song, and the remix peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. This was Derulo’s second top-ten single in the field (his first since “Whatcha Say” in 2009, which marked the longest gap between male artists’ number-one singles since Dr. Dre’s “Crack a Bottle” finally did so in 2009). He has since released six studio albums: Jason Derulo (2010), Future History (2011), Tattoos (2013), Talk Dirty (2014), Everything Is 4 (2015), and Platinum Hits (2016). However, his “2sides” project has only released ‘Side1’ until ‘Side2’ is removed before it can be counted amongst his album numbers, even though he has already had a “2Sides” tour in 2018/19.

About his overall tone and music, Jason Lipshutz of Billboard describes him as operating “in two musical modes,” one of which is a “positive PG-romance dance-pop personality” and the other of which is a “bumping faux-crass club thumper.” “Derulo has been modifying his two modes just enough as they are utilized to offset each other, so audiences never grew tired of either style,” he said.
