Jason Derulo shares how he recovered from a broken neck

THAT I WAS TO GO DIFFERENTLY AND WHAT MADE ME THE ONE THAT KIND OF STUCK OUT AMONGST THE CROWD. AND I STARTED IT UTILIZE THOSE SAME IDEALISMS IN BUSINESSES. I UTILIZED THE SAME IN SOCIAL MEDIA AND SOCIAL MEDIA EXPLODED. AND I WAS JUST LIKE, WOW, THIS IS THE EXACT SAME THING IN EVERY FACET. I WAS LIKE, I GOT TO WRITE THIS BOOK BECAUSE THERE ARE A

LOT OF DREAMERS OUT THERE GIVING UP THEIR DREAMS FOR GRAD SCHOOL OR SOMETHING THEIR PARENTS WANT THEM TO DO AND THEY FEEL LIKE IT'S TOO LATE. I STARTED DIFFERENT THINGS WITHIN MY 30s AND THEY ARE STILL FLOURISHING, RIGHT. SO IT'S THE SAME THINGS THAT NOT ME SUCCESSFUL. SO I WAS LIKE, I GOT TO WRITE THIS BOOK. >> YOU TALKED ABOUT ROUTINE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS INTERESTING,

GETTING YOU THROUGH SOME OF YOUR HARDEST MOMENTS, BECAUSE NOW WE SEE THIS. WE SEE THE CELEBRITY WITH HOW MANY, 110 SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWERS. BUT YOU PRIVATELY HAD SOME REALLY HARD TIMES AND ROUTINE HELPED YOU GET THROUGH THEM? >> YEAH, FOR SURE. SOME OF MY LOWEST LOWS, THE ROUTINE GOT ME OUT OF THEMT. WHEN I BROKE MY NECK IN 2014, I WASN'T ABLE TO TIE MY SHOES,

TAKE A SHOWER. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HAPPY TIME. I WAS GETTING READY FOR A LARGE TOUR AND, YOU KNOW, IT WAS ONE OF THE PINNACLES OF MY LIFE. AND IT QUICKLY SHATTERED WHEN I BROKE MY NECK. AND MY ROUTINE GOT ME OUT OF THE SITUATION. WAKING UP IN THE MORNING AT THE SAME TIME. EATING AT THE SAME TIME. WORKING TOOY MY MUSIC SEN HOURS

IN THE DAY AND THEN GOING TO THE GYM AND BED AT THE SAME TIME. WITHIN THAT ROUTINE ALL OF A SUDDEN SEVEN MONTHS LATER WHEN I WAS HEALED I HAD THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM WHICH ENDED UP BEING ONE OF MY BEST-SELLING ALBUMS, SIX PLAT NUMBS SINGLES. SO I GOT USED TO WINNING THE DAY AS OPPOSED TO HOW AM I GOING TO GET THROUGH SEVEN MONTHS. >> HOW

IMPORTANT ARE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU? IN TERMS OF YOUR CO-PILOTS AND THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU, I'M THINKING, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I THINK OF WHO YOU HAVE DONE SONGS WITH, WRITTEN MUSIC WITH, SNOOP DOGG, LIL WAYNE. >> IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING. SHOULD LEARN FROM THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU. THERE IS THE CLICHE, THEY SAY YOU ARE THE SUM OF THE THREE PEOPLE YOU HANG WITH MOST. >> DO

YOU BELIEVE THAT? >> I DO. CERTAIN PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE CAN SAY THINGS THAT EITHER BRING YOU DOWN OR BRING YOU UP, RIGHT. AND I THINK YOU NEED TO CHOOSE THOSE PEOPLE VERY CAREFULLY BECAUSE WORDS MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THE THINGS THAT YOU SAY ABOUT YOURSELF MAKE DIFFERENCE. IF SOMEONE IS CONSTANTLY BEATING YOU DOWN AND SAYING YOU CAN'T, CAN'T, CAN'T, AND YOU SHOULD GO ONE DIRECTION AND

YOU ARE TRYING TO GO THIS DIRECTION YOU START TO BELIEVE THOSE THINGS AND THINK I SHOULD GO THE EASIER ROUTE. YOU NEED PEOPLE PICKING YOU UP, LIFTING YOU UP AND MAKING SURE THAT YOU A BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AS MUCH AS YOU SHOULD BELIEF IN YOURSELF. >> COULD WE TALK ABOUT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY NOW. WHAT I THINK IS SO FASCINATING IS WHAT A.I. IS DOING TO MUSIC.

WE COVERED IT ON THIS SHOW, DRAKE, WHAT THAT ALL MEANS. WHERE DO YOU FALL ON THIS? I AM SURE A.I. HAS MADE JASON DERULO'S VOICE IN SONGS. DO YOU OWN THAT? >> SO NOT YET. I THINK THEY ARE STILL FIGURING IT OUT. IT IS ILLEGAL TO TAKE SOMEONE'S LIKENESS. YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT, RIGHT? BUT A.I. HADN'T FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO EMOTION AS OF YET.

THESE SONGS THAT YOU ARE HEARING WITH OTHER PEOPLE, IT'S STILL SOMEONE'S VOICE AND SOMEONE HAS TO WRITE THAT SONG AND SOMEONE HAS TO DO THE VOICE AND A.I. CHANGES THE VOICE INTO THE ARTIST. SO IT'S STILL SOMEBODY REALLY TALENTED THAT'S DOING IT. SO IT'S NOT TO THE POINT A.I. IS TAKING OVER TO THE POINT OF US ACTUALLY FEELING SOMETHING. >> DO DO YOU FEEL THOUGH THAT

YOU NEED TO GET AHEAD OF IT? I THINK FOR -- THE PROGRESSION, EVOLUTION OF MUSIC IN THE BUSINESS, FROM STREAMING WHAT WE HAVE SEEN, ILLEGAL DOWNLOADS AND I THINK ARTISTS FELT LIKE THEY WERE BEHIND THE BALL -- >> PHIL AND I ARE PREPARING TO BE REPLACED BY A.I. AND WONDERING IF YOU ARE, TOO. >> BASICALLY. >> I THINK WE APPRECIATE REALNESS, I THINK, YOU KNOW? AND

UNTIL PROVED OTHERWISE, UNTIL A.I. CAN GIVE HEART, I THINK WE ARE SAFE. >> AND THEN YOU ARE THE SON OF HAITIAN IMMIGRANTS. >> UH-HUH. >> SEEING WHAT HAITI IS GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW AND HAS GONE THROUGH FOR YEARS, REALLY SINCE THE EARTHQUAKE AND POLITICALLY THERE, YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHERE YOU ARE. >> HAITI IS EVERYTHING FOR ME. SO MY NEXT CHAPTER IN MY LIFE IS REALLY ABOUT

BUILDING UP MYSELF SO I CAN CONTINUE TO BUILD UP WHERE I AM FROM. I AM, YOU KNOW, AS YOU KNOW, FROM HAITIAN PARENTS AND, YOU KNOW, THEY WORKED REALLY HARD TO GET TO A POINT, YOU KNOW. AND EVERY TIME I GO BACK TO HAITI, MY HEART IS JUST BROKEN, YOU KNOW, OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN EVERY SINGLE TIME I GO BACK. THERE IS JUST THE

STRONGEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. I JUST FEEL LIKE THEY ARE THE MOST RESILIENT PEOPLE ON THE PLANET. BUT WE JUST NEED A BREAK, YOU KNOW? AND I WANT TO BE A SMART PART OF THAT BREAK IF I CAN BE. SO EVERYTHING THAT I AM DOING AS OF NOW, THE END GOAL IS TO CHANGE WHERE HAITI IS AT. >> IT REALLY IS A -- SPENT ALMOST A

WEEK IN RURAL HAITI WITH SOME OF THE MOST REMARKABLE PEOPLE FOR A CNN REPORT AND IT REALLY IS A MAGICAL PLACE. >> IT IS. >> IT DESERVES A LOT. >> ABSOLUTELY. AND SUCH INCREDIBLE BEACHES AND AMAZING FOOD. AND I WANT THE WORLD TO EXPERIENCE THAT PART. WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT LIKE THE DOWN PARTS OF HAITI. >> YOU'RE RIGHT CHBLT BUT THERE ARE SO MANY AMAZING THINGS

ABOUT IT. AND IF PEOPLE WENT MORE, YOU KNOW, THEY WOULD REALIZE T
