I don't understand people who don't like Justin Bieber. I just don't.
I am an 18 year-old, heterosexual, male college student and I seriously enjoy his music.
I mean, I understand that people have different tastes in music so some people just aren't going to be interested in him or his music, but I don't understand why so many people disrespect him as much as they do. I was introduced to Bieber's music about 3 years ago when he was no household name, but a YouTube singer. Most YouTube singers that I listen to barely catch my attention, but Bieber was different. I noticed that his renditions of Chris Brown's "With You" and Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River" were, in my opinion, BETTER than the originals. After hearing these two I started subscribing to kidrauhl (Bieber's YouTube account) and actually seeking out his music. After I had seen every YouTube video the kid had, I would impatiently await another. Once while scouring iTunes for music, something I do every Tuesday, I came across his name and bought it without listening to the preview. His first single was called "One Time." Now, I don't think that it publicized his vocals as much as it should have, but it was a good track. Then he came out with "One Less Lonely Girl," a song that has graced my Top 25 Most Played playlist. This sixteen year-old (fifteen then) had become one of my favorite current artists with the release of two singles. The only other artists to ever do that are Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga (and if you know me I LOVE them both!) I really wish that his music did his voice justice and that people could enjoy a full representation of what this kid is capable of. His voice may not be the most mature, but it is definitely one of the most mature. Justin Bieber isn't another Disney prodigy, he was signed by Usher. I'm just saying, but I'm pretty sure that Usher recognizes talent when he sees it.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that if people would look past his boyish looks they would find an amazing voice. And as for those who say they hate his high voice, remember Justin Timberlake? He's about 15 years older than Justin Bieber and his voice is in the same register. Just sayin.
