IN STORES TUESDAY 2/2

With the Jonas Brothers on hiatus (Kevin is playing newlywed; Joe is acting), youngest bro Nick, 17, steps out solo with a soulful sound. For the most part, he's convincing -- check out his Prince-like falsetto flourishes on the bluesy "Olive & an Arrow" and the guitar-fed funk of "State of Emergency." But elsewhere, his still growing voice makes it hard to forget his teen-pop roots. (Hollywood)

    I think the cd is good i disagree with meghan due to the fact that the CD says who i am.. if Micheal Jackson to gospel music is who he is then let him be.if he is trying out different styles its because all of those styles make him. its like art when u paint you cant express yourself with just one color! im pretty sure he doesn't need a life either because he is living it by fulfilling his dreams if you could do that im sorry but you dont need to take it out on the world.

    i disagree with you meghan. this album is really cool and shows a different side of nick jonas. it shows his more mature side and just because there are different styles of music doesnt mean hes confused.hes eclectic and each song has its own style to define its meaning.

    I have to say that nick jonas sounds confused in this album. The whole thing sounds like he's trying out different styles to see which one gets a hit. He goes from Michael Jackson to Gospel and I'm like 'WHat the heck!'. I understand that he can't sing any of his old songs from the jonas brothers anymore due to puberty, but this album is a fail. He needs a band. A REAL band. Not some stupid sound experts backing him up. Get some sound or get a life Nick Jonas!
