A Bieber Bashing Jo Bro

So, if you didn't know Joe Jonas is coming out with his debut album September sixth. Kind of exciting for all those Jo Bro fans out there! The band may not still be together but the Jonas Brothers live on forever more....with solo records anyway!

I bet at this point you are wondering why I am talking about a Jonas on a Bieber blog?!? Well get this...in a recent interview with Joe he completely bashes our beloved Prince of Pop saying his songs are meant for "a bit more mature" audience than Justin's. That he's twenty one so he sings about things people around that age go through. Which had he stopped there, it really wouldn't be that big of a deal but he goes onto say that JBiebs sings more to eleven year olds and that  he "really hopes eleven year olds aren't relating to [his] songs or their parents are going to have talk with them. But, if an eleven year old wants to listen to [his] music great, [he] just feels [he] has an older core audience."

Ok Jo Bro...listen up haha! No, but really I know PLENTY of Beliebers that are not only above age eleven but are actually legal adults...myself included! Beliebers come from all ages, shapes, sizes, countries you name it. We don't discriminate! Do I know some eleven year old Beliebers? Sure! But that doesn't mean they make up Justin's core audience. Joe clearly has his facts a little mixed up here!

To further it, I looked up his first single (which I will post at the end of this blog) and let me tell ya there's not much adult content to it! It's like almost every other heartbreak song out there. There's a boy who was in love, the girl left so now he's crushed. Not much unlike the Biebster's hit single "Baby." In fact, let me just compare some lyrics for ya!

"It was so easy to trust you baby, guess I was so stupid baby. I didn't ever think this would come, you're runnin right to another one." Joe Jonas
"Are we an item? Girl quit playin. We're just friends, what are you sayin? Said there's another and looked right in my eyes, my first love broke my heart for the first time." Justin Bieber
Not really sure where Joe got that his "adult content" is gonna attract an older audience but whatever! An entire album is obviously more than one song, I'm just sayin! These lyrics are very comparable to me.

Now, I'm not bashing the song (it's actually not bad) and I'm not bashing the Jonas Brothers...I'm not even trying to bash Joe, I just don't think there's much content behind his statement! But what do you think beautiful Beliebers? Do you think that Joe crossed a line when he spoke out against Bieber? Do you now view him as a Bieber bashing Jo Bro? Or do you think maybe what he said was takin out of context? Do you think you can be a Jonatic and a Belieber? Or have you chosen a side? Comment below and let me know!

  1. I agree a little that his music may play to a younger audience for the most part. I've never heard a Bieber song on the radio and I'm in my car 8 hours a day in a large city. I haven't even heard him on internet radio which keys to today's hits. I have, however, heard him on Radio Disney once with the nephew...Not that I'm saying that's his core audience. But it may be quite a large portion of it.

  2. I completely get what your saying....but Jonas Brothers aren't played on normal radio stations either....Joe Jonas still has those Radio Disney fans also! He maybe looking to branch out with this cd, but he's not there yet
