“If You’re Happy, You Won’t Attack Others” – Joeboy Responds to Criticism

“There’s nothing ‘mid’ about my existence,” Joeboy stated. “Reaching this level in my career at such a young age while staying grounded is a big deal.”
The 26-year-old further addressed the mentality behind such critiques. “I think the people criticizing me are unhappy with their lives.
If you’re truly content, why spend your time tearing others down? What even is ‘mid’? It’s just a trendy word people overuse without thinking,” he said.
