Biography

R&B vocalist Jason Derülo launched his career while still in his teens, first as a songwriter for other artists and later as a solo performer. Born to Haitian parents in Miramar, Florida, Derülo started singing at an early age. He attended performing arts schools in Florida and took some early stabs at music composition, writing his first song at the age of eight. His writing skills began attracting attention, and by his teenage years, Derülo had begun scribing tracks for artists like Lil Wayne, Pitbull, and Pleasure P. He also wrote "Bossy" for Birdman, a New Orleans-based rapper, and made a guest appearance on the song, which highlighted his ability as a vocalist.

 

After signing to a subsidiary of Warner Bros., Derülo began making the transition from behind-the-scenes songwriter to mainstream performer. His first hit arrived during the summer of 2009, when he wrapped a sample of Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek" (a song made popular by its appearance in the second season finale of The O.C., as well as the Saturday Night Live sketch Dear Sister) around a sleek modern soul beat. Titled "Whatcha Say," the song topped the Billboard charts and cracked the Top Ten in multiple foreign countries, including Canada, Australia, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U.K. A second single, "In My Head," peaked at number five in America, and Derülo's full-length debut album arrived in early 2010. Future History followed in 2011, along with its hit single “Don't Wanna Go Home.” ~ Jason Thurston & Andrew Leahey, Rovi / iTunes

Still not really feeling Talk Dirty. :(

'Talk Dirty' :wub: Glad this has dropped a bit though, it's really not #1 material. :lol:

"Talk Dirty" :wub:

 

 

Well, I'd recommend ear-plugs for a start... :lol:

I'm surprised even you've heard it.

woah what happened there just now with Radio 1?

Talk Dirty! The best song in the top 3

I should absolutely hate this, but I'm a sucker for Arabic sounding instrumentation. Still not a good song though.

woah what happened there just now with Radio 1?

Did the player just disappear for you on the website too? <_<

woah what happened there just now with Radio 1?

Jameela played the version with this with the tag line at the start about it being the official number 1 and it clearly isn't any more.

Are the Moderators able to ban users using the spoiler tags on the chartshow thread to stop people getting tempted in posting spoilers? I know Thermo uses it for the drop outs, but they don't really need to be wrapped in spoiler tags as it's nice to know what's fallen out and he dosen't do it until the charts in it's mid twenties anyway. Just a though I'm throwing out there? :)

Did the player just disappear for you on the website too? <_<

Yeah it did, not only that but Talk Dirty was annouced as the #1.

Oh so it wasn't just me. Good to know

I should absolutely hate this, but I'm a sucker for Arabic sounding instrumentation. Still not a good song though.

That's pretty much exactly how I feel about it on first listen...

(18) Lucy Spraggen-Last Night

 

a short and simple 2 minute pop tune one of the better tunes on the chart

I'd rather he kept the dropouts until the end of the show anyway

So glad 'Skyscraper' has charted at #7 officially! :wub:

Biography

Featuring the anthemic songwriting of Ryan Tedder, OneRepublic rose to prominence in 2007, when "Apologize" began its reign as the most popular digital download in American history. Although the song proved to be a quick success, OneRepublic had spent five years touring the musical minor leagues before its release, with Tedder splitting his time between the band's work and production gigs for other artists. Tedder and Zach Filkins formed the band in 2002 and relocated to Los Angeles shortly thereafter, adding keyboardist Drew Brown, bassist/cellist Brent Kutzle, and drummer Eddie Fisher to the lineup in the process. OneRepublic then signed with Sony BMG's Columbia label in 2003; three years later, however, the bandmates returned from a performance at Coachella to find themselves dropped from Columbia's roster.

 

Nevertheless, OneRepublic's popularity continued to soar on MySpace, and Tedder helped raise the group's profile by penning songs for artists like Blake Lewis and Hilary Duff. Hip-hop producer Timbaland (with whom Tedder had already worked for several years) took notice of the group's audience and signed OneRepublic to his own Mosley Music Group, a joint venture with Interscope Records. Timbaland also remixed one of the group's most promising tracks, "Apologize," and included it on his own album, 2007's Timbaland Presents Shock Value. The song quickly became a platinum-selling single in many countries, breaking airplay records in the U.K. and selling an unprecedented 4.3 million digital downloads in America alone.

 

Later that year, OneRepublic stepped out on their own with Dreaming Out Loud, a debut album filled with piano-fueled songwriting and pop/rock melodies. The album quickly went gold, and "Apologize" continued to top the singles charts in multiple countries. Another Tedder-penned track, Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love," experienced similar success at the same time, thus making Tedder one of the year's most celebrated songwriters. OneRepublic began writing songs for a second album in 2008, and the group later decamped to Colorado Springs to avoid outside distractions. Although initially planned for a summer release, Waking Up wasn't completed until September 2009. "All the Right Moves," the album's lead single, was released to radio that same month, while the entire album followed in November. In 2013, OneRepublic returned with its third studio album, Native, featuring the singles, "Feel Again" and "If I Lose Myself."
