The Jonas Brothers Feud: Is It Due To Their Latest Record 'The Album' Flopped?

Despite reports of low sales, it appears Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas are not really feuding with each other.

Sources told Radar Online have suggested that "disastrous" figures for their latest record, "The Album," made them disheartened, causing some people to ponder whether they'd be better off going solo.

In May, the Jonas Brothers' latest album entered the charts at number three, a long-awaited release after their return to music with "Happiness Begins" in 2019; however, data revealed that their fan base did not quite reach its old height in response.

Analyzing the two albums, "Happiness Begins" and "The Album," revealed a stark contrast in sales figures.

In the week following their record releases, 400,000 copies of "Happiness Begins" were sold, while "The Album" sold a much smaller amount of 50,000.

A source close to them stated that despite this success, disputes began to arise between them. They reportedly blamed each other for the contrast in numbers they received.

They claimed, "It's unlikely they'll ever record new music again if no one wants to buy it."

In response, the Jonas Brothers' representative expressed skepticism about those reports.

"This is inaccurate source material as they guys couldn't be happier, and they are looking forward to performing in Yankee Stadium to sold out fans August 12 and 13."

After taking a six-year hiatus, the performers reunited, much to the delight of their fans. What may have caused such a divide between them back then has faded away as they move forward together once more.

In an interview, Nick, Joe, and Kevin opened up about their ever-changing creative approach.

Joe said in an interview, "We practice a lot. We play a lot ... It's like any muscle. You have to keep working it and know when to relax and know when to take care of it. We had one of the best teachers in the world, which was our father."

He added, "We've had plenty of times where things weren't working the way they were supposed to vocally, and you had to lean on one another."

In 2006, brothers Joe, Nick, and Kevin Jonas joined forces to form a sibling trio called The Jonas Brothers.

After five years of success together, in 2011, they chose to go their separate ways as each pursued solo projects.

After two years apart, in 2013, they decided to cancel their tour due to a "deep rift" caused by artistic differences.

Ultimately, this proved too big an obstacle for them to overcome, and they officially parted ways.
