Derulo Disapproved The Amount Online As His Worth

Before any amount became official as Derulo's net worth, some of his core fans wondered if he was already a billionaire. However, the artist gave insight on his net worth, particularly addressing the amount online as being far from the actual one.

In the same interview with Complex, Derulo stated that the amount was wrong. He referred to a conversation he had a few days back with Forbes, asking about the person/group of people that come up with such numbers.

He genuinely asked Forbes how to make necessary corrections because he couldn't access the true source. Another reason why his actual worth might be more than the stated amount is his philanthropic work.

The singer often uses his social media accounts to support and promote his "Just For You Foundation." The foundation is to raise money for orphans and less privileged families to promote their education, provide shelter, and feed the homeless.

His Breakthrough In The Industry

Derulo wrote and co-wrote songs for different recording artists for some years before actually signing to a record label as an artist. He was signed to Beluga Heights, an American label established by veteran J.R. Rotem.

After the record label became affiliated with a bigger label, Warner Music Group, the Floridian officially became a recording artist and released his debut single, "Whatcha Say," in 2009.

The song peaked at number one in the US, earned a triple-platinum RIAA certification, and recorded over five million digital downloads. He released another single that same year before dropping his debut album, a year after his debut single.

After releasing his first album, he ceaselessly continued dropping awesome projects ranging from singles to Extended Plays (EPs) and albums. Some of them hold some record-breaking statistics on the official US and UK charts.
