ihop Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 So I come across his latest song, which I feel is genuinely good. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4em3LKQCAQ[/media] I think since his voice broke his songs have been getting slowly better as they become less cheesy and he shows he actually has a pretty decent voice. Or maybe it's just Big Sean that makes this song good. Discuss Bieber and what you think for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 So, his last few whatever albums were awful. Undeniably. Now, his latest album. [i]Believe[/i], is debatable. It quite clearly is made to appeal to mainstream people. As Long As You Love Me is a rather predictable song in general with cheesy bits but the production value is decent enough to not totally overlook it. Strangely, I think the best song on the album is the Nicki Minaj collab, only because of the fact that the production is gorgeous. Otherwise, he's now become a bit of an R&B wannabe, verging on new Timberlake without the appeal. Definitely better than before, but nowhere near good.

Thar Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 To be honest, his voice sounds a LOT better after it hit puberty. Though, I prefer Boyfriend, since there's a hint of class to it. The guy's still a douchebag, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embittered Moon Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Never liked any of his music. It's just too mainstream and idiotic for me in my opinion. However, his new album does seem better than his earlier stuff. He's a good musician, he's just in it for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smear Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 He makes WAY too many love songs. Seriously, the lyrics are so corny it's hard to listen. There's one of his songs, which I have no idea what it is, that isn't based around love and I actually kind of like it. As Long As You Love Me is a lot better than some of his earlier stuff. Boyfriend has too much of the talking-but-trying-to-rap-at-the-same-time dealio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I'll admit it, JB doesn't sound as bad as he used to. But there is still no creativity in his lyrics, they're all about girls and falling in love. And he still is just in for the money. But now he just sounds like a wannabe Timberlake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 He's got a good voice (now), he just sings bad stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihop Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 If you had read the rest of the thread you'd see that the people generally said that he isn't too bad/has got better and my OP is rather in favour of him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garthfunkle Vii Backwards Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 [center]All i'm saying is that you know people where going to mock him, when you posted this thread.[/center] [center](do not let others stop you from doing what you like to do, think, feel or, say) If he works harder, he might improve and write/make something that i might actually like![/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapidfire Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Really Justin has a great voice, it's just the fact that he does not writ his songs. I mean he has a pick in them but it's the producers that know that a bunch of dense girls are gonna like all his songs. I like a couple, and he's got a lot of talent. As for the money thing... I don't think that is the case, and if it is, then it's his family he does it for. He was born a pore kid. The money might have gotten to his head, but I don't think so. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Rai Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 The two songs he wrote on Believe were pretty awful anyway (As Long As You Love Me and Fairytale, a bonus track). Justin Bieber really doesn't have a /good/ voice. His vocal character is monotone and often drowned in expert production anyway. The other half of the time, he's compensating for the fact he has a limited vocal range by using 'talk-rap'. 'FIRE THOSE IDIOTS' I'm sorry, they're idiots? They're doing their job, they know their audience. Of all things, they're the best songwriters for a commercial market because, frankly, they know their market. And, even if he starts writing most of his songs, they will still be about girls. Because that's why he's popular :S Baby's main writer was Bieber; look how that turned out. tl;dr He shouldn't write because his writers are good writers for money, and he can't write anyway. He can sing, but in the vast world of the music industry, there are a trillion people who can sing better than him. Nothing wrong with [i]Believe[/i], but not a lot that's good either. Besides, if he looked like a nerd, I'm sure no-one would like him anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
