"I can't believe that this is what music has become. He's an okay singer; I'll give him that. If he and I were hanging out with a group of friends and someone decided he should sing something for us, I would be alright with that. However, if someone said "hey, why don't you sing for us and I'll give you millions of dollars and fans," I would not be alright with that. The only reason these types of throw away pop stars persist is because of the record companies. They know they can exploit the young girl fan base and make a quick buck, year in and year out. That being said, anyone who has a brain developed enough to discern ANY type of quality in music should take whatever precautions required to never have to hear a note of this garbage. If you are 12, I don't blame you. If you are Usher or a record label head, I do."
It's Not Just Adults Who Don't Like Him

"I'm a teenage girl and I'd just like to say that it's not just the adults who dislike this lack of talent. I personally find all his songs very annoying and he sounds like a girl when he sings. A lot of my friends dislike him too. My younger brother says there are a lot of girls in his grade who adore Justin Bieber, but that is certainly not the case in my age group. Most of my friends feel the same way I do about this, there is no talent here, just annoyance. One of the worst artists ever."
Justin Haters PLEASE stop reviewing!!!!!!

"I really love this album!! Justin is an AMAZING singer and has lots of talent! ive been seeing his videos on YouTube and i am very impressed, but i was shocked by all the mean reviews! you people are just breaking him down with all your hate-filled words!

"For those who were wondering if the Jonas Brothers would hold the title for godawful, ear gouging tween music forever, never fret, people! Justin Bieber makes the aforementioned group look almost mediocre. Justin Bieber is here to claim that title as awful ear-gouging, absolutetly horrifying pop singer(s). It's also an album that will make you burst into hysterical fits of laughter, and not in the good way.
If you like Justin Bieber...I feel sorry for you. There's SO MUCH better music out there, and people are wasting their precious time with this dreck?! Listen people, even if you don't care for such awesome artists like Naked City, Venetian Snares, Bernnard Herman (Citizen Kane, Taxi Driver, Psycho), Nina Rota (The Godfather, 8 1/2), Yoko Kanno (Cowboy Bebop), Mr Bungle, Morbid Angel, The Beatles, Gentle Giant, John Coltrane and Fugazi, at least go exploring and find some singers who don't sound this bad, there's tons of them on Broadway, for starters. This guy is the Brokencyde of pop singers. Avoid like the ebola virus.
One other thing. I would like to know, who in their right mind wrote the "About the Artist" description here anyway? You expect me to believe a word of this filth? Manufactured pop artists. This guy is an alternative to that? What are you people smoking? Don't believe the hype, kiddies."
