Jason Derulo's new video is not (NOT) set in a club

  • May 11, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Jason Derulo has denied that he's jumping on the whole getting-down-in-a-club bandwagon in the video for his new single, 'Don't Wanna Go Home'.

Talking to MTV, Derulo clarified that the video wasn't about "going to the club". Rather it was about "never leaving the club" and that the setting wasn't even a club but a warehouse.

Derulo wrote the video treatment himself.

The song, which heavily samples Robyn S' 'Show Me Love', isn't simply a run of the mill depiction of having fun in a club/warehouse, either. "I wanted to write a song that people could escape their problems, their pain, their turmoil, and by doing a feel-good song, I'm doing just that," the modest tunesmith said. "You don't have to write a song about saving the world to do just that. We created this new age party-smasher."
