Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner used to be couple goals for many of their fans. Their banter-filled, fun relationship was something many people looked up to. The effortless ease with which they seemed to be together was awe-inspiring too.
However, it all came crashing down when the couple announced their separation and subsequent divorce. Things went sour very quickly as both celebrities and their teams started damage control. The narratives from both parties started flooding to clean up the situation and pin the blame on the other person.
Joe Jonas announces next album amidst divorce drama
Dating and navigating relationships under media and public scrutiny can be a tough venture. With the increasing number of breakups and divorces making news, this is proving to be truer by the day. However, a trickier situation arises when kids are involved and the couple needs to be on good terms for their wellbeing. Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s situation is similar as they agreed on a temporary custody arrangement with mediation sessions to follow soon.
Moving on, Jonas has announced his latest album Music for People Who Believe in Love which will be released pretty soon. Many fans are wondering whether this will hint at his relationship drama with ex-wife Turner and if it’ll detail his version of the events. Jonas put these rumors to rest in an interview with Billboard as he shared,
It was scary at times, and also freeing. I’m not trying to come for anyone on this album. I’m not trying to put stuff on blast. I have a beautiful life that I’m grateful for. I’ve got two beautiful kids. I’m a happy person, and the music needed to resemble that—but also, the journey to get here. I was going through a lot of life changes, finding out who I was as a person and father and friend, and living under the microscope of what the music industry can be. And I think, at such a crazy time in my life, I looked to music as an outlet.
For many singers including Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and John Legend among others, music is the way they express themselves with their songs often containing personal experiences. Whether it’s gut-wrenching heartbreak or butterfly-inducing love, singers are known to include lyrics that describe their personal ordeal for the masses to relate to. It seems like Jonas might touch upon his feelings but he won’t name-drop or cause unnecessary hurt with his latest album.
Joe Jonas’s first solo album in over 10 years
Jonas has been a part of DNCE, a pop collective and a band with his two brothers under the Jonas Brothers label. His only solo album was Fastlife back in 2011 which failed to impress the masses as much as he hoped. So, when he began to have certain musings about his innermost conflicts, he started penning a song initially meant to be recorded with his two brothers. However, once the song turned into something deeper, the singer decided to pursue this on his own.
Music for People Who Believe in Love celebrates the process of moving on and finding yourself after going through such intense emotional turmoils. The album contains pop songs ranging from workout synth tunes to sweet lullabies that are dedicated to his daughters. Reportedly, Jonas was so inspired by his thoughts that lyrics and music just flowed out of him as he recorded most of the album in barely two and a half weeks.
The entire album Music for People Who Believe in Love drops on October 18, 2024.
