Jason Derulo is keeping the new music pumping with no signs of slowing.

The last two months may have seen him introduce music lovers to the Dido-assisted ‘When Love Sucks‘ and ‘Glad U Came’ (as we reported here), but now he’s lifting the lid on their follow-up: ‘Slow Low.’

Produced by Pink Slip and Jackson Morgan, Derulo’s ‘Slow’ comes as a unique musical venture because its tempo changes at different points throughout the song – a play on the tune’s lyrics about a lover who is hard to keep up with in the sack.

“Gооd thіngѕ gоnnа соmе іf уоu јuѕt wаіt / Ѕhе rіdе mе fаѕtеr аnd fаѕtеr / Аnd ѕhе dо іt wіth раѕѕіоn / І fееl іt соmіng, іt’ѕ соmіng / Ѕо, bаbу, ѕlоw dоwn,” he croons on the innuendo-laden track.

Madonna barely gave music lovers time to get acquainted with her June 2-released single ‘Popular‘ (alongside The Weeknd and Playboi Carti) before the Pop Queen gave her royal blessing to the launch of a new single with another of the day’s top hitmakers: Sam Smith.

As has been teased for weeks, the ‘Like a Prayer’ singer has answered the prayer of many-a-fan when she revealed a mystery collab with Sam – a joint effort that later turned out to the ILYA-produced duet ‘Vulgar.’

“Look like I’m dressed to kill, love how I make me feel / All black in stripper heels, move like Madonna / Rich like I’m in the Louvre, got nothin’ left to prove / You know you’re beautiful when they call you vulgar,” the two sing on the thunderous track.

Reportedly recorded the day after the 2023 GRAMMYs, hear ‘Vulgar’ inside just in time for Pride month.
