He appears to be aware of this too:

"This [character] was me like seven years ago," the 35-year-old singer told Gotham magazine of his cheating nature in the past. "We all get a little lost sometimes. I would be lying if I said that I didn't get lost when I was a little bit younger, trying to figure things out."

Thanks for the article.

I was more referring to his music and not his relationships.

He basically started out in one genre and then sold out and changed his music to pop and became kind of a douchbag once he started making money.

^This. Levine's personal life is a mess but is secondary to the feelings I have about him selling out for his music career.

Yeah, the entire time, I wished he got an expanded role so we could have felt the connection he probably felt towards his role. Just thinking about it now makes me mad. Songs About Jane was one of my favorite albums and in my mind, I've disconnected Maroon 5/Adam Levine from the greatness of their first album. I can't associate them together.

I'm surprised he took the role

The sellout guy from Maroon 5 who, after making a great rock album,completely changed their sound to make more money from doing Pop music etc. and decided to retain the same name "Maroon 5" even though they sound nothing like Maroon 5.
