AOTW [14] : Jason Derulo

September 11th, 2009 Posted in Music, aotw

I was chatting with the boyfriend yesterday about how Imogen Heap‘s “Hide and Seek” is a really good song, legendary in fact ! It’s so good that the song has tons of covers and Jason Derulo has a remix version of it, well in a way it’s considered remix to me, called “Whatcha Say”.

Despite being a ’88 baby, he’s doing really well in his songwriting-singing career ! Typical Pop/R&B/Hip Hop music that is always high in demand in the market. I thought his remix version of “Hide and Seek” was not too bad but I prefer the original by Imogen Heap of course ! What do you think ? (It’s #10 on the billboard chart by the way!)
