Cody Simpson Teases Justin Bieber Collaboration On Instagram: Listen
Cody Simpson just posted a 15-sec snippet of one of the new acoustic songs he's recorded with pal Justin Bieber on Instagram. Both teen stars share the same manager, Scooter Braun, who’s apparently the mastermind behind this new ‘duo’. It looks like Scooter wants Cody to finally have a hit in the U.S, and he's using Justin to help his ‘other’ client. In a recent interview, the Australian blond singer said: “We [Cody and Justin] have messing around the guitars and just working on a bunch of music,”…“We’re not really sure what it’s going to be yet, but you’ll hear something this year,”…”There's definitely a “real cool acoustic project” going up though!”, and that “It might be a little more than a song.”. Is Cody coming up with his own "Journals"?
Justin and Cody are seemingly good friends. There’s a bunch of pictures of them out and about in different cities and also partying together. So this new "acoustic project" doesn't seem so unnatural. If they weren't friends though, it would seem very awkward for Justin to help such an irrelevant singer like Cody. All his albums and singles haven’t sold that well, and the only good things he’s been successful at have been touring and getting a big pay check for being a contestant on "Dancing with the Stars". So again, shouldn't they be friends, it'd be strange for Justin to be helping a singer who's not on his same level. But they ARE friends, so it's all good.
The new Cody + Justin song was previewed via Mr. Simpson's Instagram in the early hours of Friday, August 1. In the 15-second snippet we hear Justin at first and then only Cody. The unnamed song is definitely a love-themed one, with lyrics including: "They say that love is blind, but baby I can see it all". Awww! This doesn't sound bad!
