| Song |

Reception
Glenn Gamboa of Newsday wrote: "For fans of Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek," the new Jason DeRulo single "Whatcha Say"—which liberally samples from the song and even uses Heap's chorus as his own chorus—may be hard to swallow. But DeRulo weaves easily in and out of Heap's parts and matches his AutoTuned vocals to hers pretty well to craft a catchy, if derivative, little number."[2]
