Jason Derulo has been working up a sweat in the gym and, with a new music on the horizon, seems keen to share the fruits of his labor. Case, point, this freshly unwrapped promo snap.

The revealing shot comes on the heels of the premiere of the 22-year-old’s latest single ‘The Other Side’ – which serves as the lead release from his third studio album (due later this year).

We imagine girlfriend Jordin Sparks has a lot to smile about.

The brilliance of R&B’s revival in recent years lies in the variety that has come along with it.

For, as Trey Songz and Willie Taylor succeed in peddling the ‘grown and sexy’, the likes of Frank Ocean continue to carve out more personal lanes, breathing life into the genre with messages and melodies that transcend genre for the first time in a long time.

Now, in shining a light on the genius that caught Jay Z‘s ear no more than two years ago, we’re sharing just two of our favorite songs from the star. One of them, being his Keyshia Cole ‘Wonderland‘ duet and his very own ‘Talk To Me’.
