Review

Jason Derulo is back with a bang—or maybe more of a mix and match—with his fifth studio outing, "Nu King." Emerging from a nine-year silence, this vibrant album dropped on February 16, 2024, like a sonic buffet crammed with 27 tracks. It's a star-studded party with guest spots by Michael Bublé, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Nicki Minaj, and even David Guetta. This lineup shakes up genres like a cocktail in a mixer, keeping things unpredictable and dynamic, while still staying true to Derulo’s showman style.

"Nu King" isn’t just spinning typical pop and R&B riffs—it shuffles everything from hip-hop to collaborations born from whimsical partnerships. Maura Johnston grabbed the term "audacious Pop-R&B smoothie" for Derulo, and that mix intrigues and occasionally spins with unapologetic flair. Clocking in at 78 minutes, it's an epic journey capturing years of production; however, listeners might need a breather halfway. Even if not every track hits the mark, this album is a showcase of cheeky ambition and a fearless dive into diversity in sound, proving that Derulo’s evolution is far from over. - Chase
