The Jonas brothers have hinted that their next album might have some hip-hop influences.
Speaking to MTV, Nick Jonas revealed: "There's a song we wrote recently and we were thinking... it does sound different and kind of strange, and [we'd like to work with] a rapper who has some real meaningful lyrics."
When speaking about who he would like to team up with, Nick added: "[Someone who] has some real depth to what he's saying - someone like a Common or a Lupe Fiasco or a Mos Def. Someone who takes more of a spoken-word approach. That'd be really cool."
Joe Jonas confirmed this by saying: "We have a hip-hop bone in us somewhere," and also revealed what to expect of their new album: "As we get older, so does our music."
"There's a lot more horns and it's really fun. I think people are going to be able to jam out to it in their cars or their mom's cars or their boom boxes."
Last month the Jonas Brothers said some of their new songs were inspired by Kings Of Leon. They also said they would love to collaborate with Prince.
The Jonas Brothers are wholesome and too white-bread for that kind of music. I admire their bravery though. I think Barbara Walters scared them into understanding they're not going to be teen sensations forever and the 3D movie/soundtrack is bombing so now they're trying a more mature tack. Good for them...I guess. They need to finish puberty though, because their singing is unbearable.
. They'll still sell anyway.
