Origins With Cush Jumbo

Show Notes

Cush is joined by the fourth most-followed man on TikTok, and global music sensation Jason Derulo. You might know him as the Wiggle, Talk Dirty, and Watcha Say singer, alongside collaborations with icons like Snoop Dogg, Nicki Minaj, Megan Trainor, and Jennifer Lopez.

In this episode, Jason talks about his Haitian Creole roots and shares how he started out as the family's designated 'happy birthday' singer. He made his first ever records in his car at night when everyone else was asleep.

Today he opens up about how he downplays his success to his son, and how he juggles 13 businesses.
