    A worsening of the already offensively bad my world Ep is what I'd say if it wasn't rescued by the few fun innocent bubblegum pop jams :baby,somebody to love,eenie meenie &that should be me. Even so those songs are catchy but not particularly good .

    If only there was a lower score than 0 to truly give this album justice in its rating. Since there isn't we'll have to go with this one.

    It's strange that some very young artist find their voice and musical lane so early in their career but unfortunately, this is not the case with Justin and this particular album.

    My World 2.0 has been called by many the “second half” of Justin Bieber’s first album. Usually, I don’t review two albums by the same artist so close together, but I thought it would be good to do so, since these two works go hand in hand. Luckily, the second time around is better than Bieber’s debut, though 2.0 is still very rocky and some of the utter cringe that was a part of the first outing is present here. I had always thought that Baby was overrated and overplayed, but after listening to it, I found that the lyrics in the verses were actually decent and it contained a surprising amount of feeling. That being said, I did not really appreciate how repetitive this song is, and it uses some annoying and distracting drums. Plus, the rap part felt out of place and was really unnecessary. I don’t usually mind rap-bridges, but this one was weird in the way that some words were emphasized. Somebody To Love was actually a pretty good song. I thought it was fun how synthy it was. The bass synth was outstanding and great to jam to, but the higher synth notes were a bit distracting from the rest of the song. Stuck In The Moment was riddled with a lot of clichés, though it redeemed itself by the rest of the lyrics, which were actually really good and powerful--a surprise. At this point I thought I might need to raise my expectations since this album seemed to be considerably better than its counterpart. U Smile had a bunch of great lyrics, though this song was a little repetitive, and I thought I may have heard a bit of autotune, which took away some fun from the listening experience. Runaway Love started out as a great song, as its music was great (awesome bassline), though I would have appreciated better lyrics, and this theme of lost love was getting really tiring at this point. Plus, I’ve tried to not say this in the past, but Runaway Love sounded like a Kidz Bop song, which is not a good thing to resemble. Never Let You Go would have been a good song if I was able to take it seriously, but there was something about it that seemed like it was not 100% in a serious manner (the bridge was especially cheesy). At least it had some relatable and powerful lyrics that were well written, and its music was pretty good, and I liked the bass, drums, and vocals only part. The drums were a bit annoying in Overboard. Actually, no; they were extremely annoying. They were fine in the intro but got progressively worse. The theme this song presents had already been addressed in six other songs in this album (haha, that’s a joke. There were only six songs already--oh, nevermind), so I felt confused why we needed to hear about it again. The lyrics were actually kind of relatable though in the chorus, and the bass was fun. On the downside, Bieber’s voice sounded processed. This normally would be okay, but the cool thing about a young artist is the sheer ability that the artist has to impress the audience. If the artist just wastes this opportunity on autotune instead of actually trying or electronic drums instead of actually constructing a beat with a real instrument, the opportunity is lost and the music is filed away as merely generic, which I’m afraid is what happened here. Eenie Meenie was probably the worst song I have ever heard. It was very, very repetitive, and the lyrics that weren’t were so cringy that I actually wanted to throw up. I also thought it was weird how Justin Bieber got all the credit for this song yet it seemed like the whole time it was just Sean Kingston singing. The bridge was the worst part of the song, actually repulsive. I was hoping for the song after this to cleanse the awfulness I had just heard but Up was underwhelming. It was just an average song for the album: the lyrics were corny and the tired theme continued. That Should Be Me was considerably better, but still not anything breathtaking. The distortion effect used in the second half of the song was super unnecessary and would have been much better fitting in one of the other songs. The key change was really nice and I really liked the lyrics that weren’t repetitive. Overall, My World 2.0 was definitely not a masterpiece, though it was a slight improvement over its predecessor. It still has its fair share of corny lyrics, though in general they are a lot better. I am curious to see whether Justin Bieber gets better as he matures or if the music quality stays the same. Only time will tell! Highlight: Stuck In The Moment.    … Expand

    The first My World album was bad enough he didn't have to release a 2.0 over to make us feel worse about ourselves. I did see one review stating that they wished there was a score below zero I would have to agree.

    Flat voice , annoying sound, we can consider that the only thing helpful in this album is some compositions , boring teen pop , childish, and immature , expected more from you Bieber , nothing new about the sun , always the bubblegum pop to fasten the little girls teenagers, we still have a Purpose , and a Believe to save the right discography

    While this album is bad, it isn't as bad as most people think, and it's only judged because of "Baby" (the worst song off the album), however some songs such as "Somebody to Love" are tolerable.

    What a piece of trash! All of Justin Bieber's music sucks! WHY DOES HE HAVE TO SING HIS CRAP ALL THE TIME?!?! He should buy E.T. The Extra Crapstrial for Atari 2600. Avoid this album and JB himself at all costs!! I'd fart in his face too.

    Apesar de ser um album de um garoto de 16/17 anos as músicas não agradam pessoas com mais idade, Justin Bieber construiu uma imagem de "garoto bonito" porém não passa disso, um exemplo a Lorde, mesmo com 16/17 anos suas músicas demonstram a realidade diferente deste album que deve agradar no maximo crianças de 9 anos.

    Musically it is a disgrace to the music, is not even slag.
    I can not believe I have to admit that's a f ****g commercially successful, having so much damn talent, success had to give that poor guy. I have not heard such silly songs like Baby Baby Baby Ohhh, that is, what's that?, Is this excited?, I've never heard a sound so gay in the music and rhythm alike, too gay, it's amazing that    Musically it is a disgrace to the music, is not even slag.

    Just say that this album is a dirty, I'm not against Justin and even they do not believe,he can achieve to be great once you leave aside the thematic he uses in his songs, but as it is musical crap I hope that girls are cured of this bad music and hear something more convincing.    … Expand

    For little kids he might be good but in my opinion he cannot be considered a true musician, his lyrics are infantile and his music on its whole is to commercial. His voice although is not a bad one he has chosen a bad style and should rethink his career if he wants to be taken account of by people who are actually allowed to drink and not only little girls screaming for his babies.

    When I was seven, I had a Britney Spears poster on my wall, and choreographed dances to "Lucky" with my friends at sleepovers. If I was seven now, I would probably have the same love for Justin Bieber. However, I'm not seven, and I'm doubtful if many people much older than that would actually enjoy this album.

I will actually admit to liking "Somebody To Love", and "Stuck In The Moment" temporarily got stuck in my head. But it's a weak album, with wholly uninspiring lyrics and bland uninteresting music. And, of course, it's sung by a prepubescent boy. I like lots of music, including pop music. This is not quality pop music.… Expand

    Again? This is llike the capcom games, for example, have Street Fighter, and after Super Street Fighter IV, and I never imagine that this happen in the music industry. This album have only one good song, the rest is terrible. A next CD of Bieber? No I don't believe that.

    68. Really, it seems like a joke that music critics can put this mark to this album. I have listened it all, and I can ensure yoy that it is the worst thing that I have ever listened to. Even My World, the first EP of Justin Bieber, that I would mark it with a 0, is better than this CD.
    Let's be serious. Commercial music is usually crap. It is a question of its sense. And I'm not talking    68. Really, it seems like a joke that music critics can put this mark to this album.

    Let's be serious. Commercial music is usually crap. It is a question of its sense. And I'm not talking about this pseudo commercial music like Glam Metal, 80's pop like Michael Jackson, and nowadays Indie Rock. I'm talking about music only made for sell, without attempting to make it last over the years. And inside this bad music, My World 2.0 is really deplorable.
    There are some reasons why this is so bad. First and most important, the music. Composed with no musical sense at all, the melody is so simple and pathetic that Lady Gaga seems King Crimson next to it. No rhythm, no grace, no nothing. The instruments are dreadful, playing repetitive sounds and crappy riffs, and his voice is so auto-tuned that Daft Punk voices at Discovery album seems natural. A complete disaster.
    But what makes it worse than a simple painful album is its spirit. A girl-looking boy of 16 years old singing about love, dreams mad true, etc. It's obvious that it is a big and vile strategy of his record label to make it attractive for pre adolescent girls that have been brainwashed by the system and have not listened any good music at their life. And the worst thing is that music critics don't punish this CD as it deserves. What's wrong with you guys? Have you been payed by its label? But if any of its consumers would read this! What a sad world. Absolutly an awful album, the worst of all time.    … Expand

    Absolutely not worthy of publication. This album is not music, is a "commercial thing" to do money. Baby could have been a good single for the beat but the word are not mature enough for a 16 years old guy...

    Bieber makes all the right, charming moves for a teen, and he covers all the bases. The dance-pop songs are light on the ears yet memorable; the unrequited material sounds deeply felt; the ballads have all the necessary us-against-the-world teen-love dramatics.

    Despite the clunky moments, there’s ample proof that Team Bieber know exactly what they’re doing and who they’re talking to. As you’d expect, it’s the ballads that hit the hardest.

    This full-length sequel, My World 2.0, in stores March 23, won't likely affect any adults not in the direct blast radius of Bieber's target range. That said, the kid seems to know what he's doing.
