One follower, Jacklyn Krol, questioned whether or not Portugal. The Man were mad at the Jonas Brothers, to which the band replied, saying that they weren't mad, and in fact went on to praise their previous discography, as well as Nick Jonas' solo work.
Not mad at all. Actually dig a lot of their music and Nick’s solo records https://t.co/tjeTMdRpBk
