Last Saturday night, November 22, 2025, the Mall of Asia Arena was officially converted into the biggest, most electric dance floor in the Philippines. Global pop and R&B powerhouse Jason Derulo didn’t just perform; he unleashed a torrent of infectious energy, spectacular choreography, and pure charisma that defined the “Nu King World Tour” stop in Manila.

This highly anticipated comeback was made possible by L-Squared Productions Inc., a company that consistently proves its commitment to giving Filipino audiences something truly fresh and unforgettable. L-Squared didn’t just stage a concert; they created an experience, complete with an innovative SVIP Bar setup that would later become a pivotal part of the show itself.

The Concert: A Nonstop Hit Parade

From the instant the spotlights hit the stage, Jason Derulo, backed by a world-class live band and an impeccable dance crew, commanded every moment. It was a masterclass in pop performance, a relentless, high-octane celebration of his career that spanned over a decade.

For the Millennials in the crowd, the night was a powerful trip down memory lane. The arena erupted into a massive chorus frenzy as he powered through his biggest hits: “Swalla,” “Wiggle,” “Take You Dancing,” “Whatcha Say,” “Ridin’ Solo,” “In My Head,” and the show-stopping “Talk Dirty.”

But it was the performance of “Savage Love” that truly resonated. This pandemic-era smash hit, which became an unexpected anthem of hope and escape during the darkest days, took on new meaning. Derulo slowed the track down, delivering a moving, partially a cappella version that shifted the mood from party to powerful survival, reminding everyone what they had overcome.

In a move that highlighted the dynamic production standards L-Squared Productions is known for, Derulo broke the mold. When it was time for the hit “Trumpets,” he literally stepped off the main stage and commandeered the exclusive MOA Arena SVIP Bar set-up as his mobile stage. No barrier—big or small—could contain his energy as he used the custom space to get up close, driving the crowd into an absolute sing-along frenzy.

He also gave the eager Manila crowd the exclusive live debut of his latest release, “Who Hurt You,” which was met with deafening cheers, proving that while his classics are beloved, his new era is just as exciting.

The Celebration Continues: An L-Squared Signature

True to their promise of delivering unforgettable experiences that extend beyond the final curtain call, L-Squared Productions ensured the celebration didn’t stop at the arena. Following the epic concert, the action shifted to the official after-party at the luxurious Okada Manila. Surrounded by VIP guests, industry partners, and notable personalities, Derulo kept the energy flowing in an intimate setting.

Taking a moment to pause the celebration, the “Hollywood Nu King” raised his champagne glass and offered a sincere, heartfelt toast to everyone who made the night a success:

“I’m just so thankful, thank you to everybody who came out tonight. It was a humbling, full experience. You never know when you come somewhere else so far away from home, not knowing what the reception will gonna be. But I honestly felt like I’ve been right at home ever since I landed here in Manila. So, great job—from the bottom of my heart! And let’s keep the party going. Cheers!”

That genuine moment of gratitude perfectly capped off a night that was all about connection, energy, and shared celebration—a hallmark of the world-class experiences L-Squared Productions continues to bring to the Philippines.
