Jason Derulo released “Trumpets” to International audiences as a single off his third studio album, Tattoos (2013), which he re-titled for release in the US under the name Talk Dirty (2014). “Trumpets” was eventually re-released in the US as the fifth single from Talk Dirty and peaked at number 14 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Derulo made his directorial debut on the “Trumpets” video, and co-wrote and the song with Jon Bellion who also handled the production. “I met Jason briefly in the studio and played him some of my own solo stuff,” Bellion told Interview Magazine:

He was cool with it, he liked it so much…
