Justin Bieber – The Music

Justin Bieber became famous almost by accident, it would seem. We doubt that it would have been long before he was picked up by someone, of course – he is a very talented young man! However, it was back in 2007 that Scooter Braun (one of the marketing executives from Def Jam) was flicking through YouTube trying to find a few videos of a different artist, and he clicked on one of Justin Bieber’s videos that his mother had uploaded, completely by accident. He loved it, of course, and tracked down his school, eventually managing to get in touch with his mother who was rather reluctant about the meeting because Scooter Braun’s Jewish religious background. She soon gave in of course, and the 13 year old Justin Bieber was allowed to fly to Atlanta, Georgia to start recording his demo tapes. It was just a week after that that he famously sung for the massive talent that is Usher! It was in July 2009 that his first single was released, and in the first week, it managed to get to a pretty impressive number twelve on the charts in Canada. “One Time” was the name, and you can see the video here:

The Singles

From this point, his career went from strength to strength, and to date, these are the records that he has released:

• One Time – released in July 2009 and reached number 12 in the Canadian charts, 17 in the US charts and 11 in the UK charts!
• One Less Lonely Girl – released 2009 and reached 10^th, 16^th and 62^nd in the Canadian, US and British charts respectively.
• Baby – this great song was probably the one that made him reach heights that he could only have dreamed about before. Featuring Ludacris, this was the first song from his debut album and in fact turned out to be the lead song. Reaching a pretty impressive 3^rd in the music charts in Canada, it also reached 3^rd in the UK charts and 5^th in the American ones.
• Eenie Meenie – featuring Sean Kingston, this song was released in 2010 and was from the album “My World 2.0”, just like “Baby”
• Somebody To Love – This is one of our favorite Justin Bieber tracks and was released, again in 2010, from the “My World 2.0” album. Hitting number 10 in the US charts, 15 in the US charts, 33 in the UK charts, it was one of those songs that literally took over the world. It even reached number 12 in New Zealand!
•  U Smile – One of the cuter Justin Bieber songs, it was released from the same album as the few above and didn’t do greatly in the charts. It only reached number 17 in the Canadian charts, and it didn’t do much better in the US or UK charts either – 27 and 98 respectively. Ooops!
• Pray – From “My Worlds: The Collection”, this was another song that didn’t really do greatly. It wasn’t even released in Canada.
• Never Say Never –featuring Jaden Smith, Will Smith’s kid, this song literally took the world by storm and certainly planted Justin Bieber well and truly on the hit music map. Reaching 11^th in the Canadian charts and an impressive 8^th in the US, it was the first song to be released in 2011 and was from the album “Never Say Never: The Remixes”
• Mistletoe –This song certainly brings on the Christmas cheer for us here at the HerInterest office and is still one of favorite Bieber songs to this day. Reaching 9^th in the Canadian charts and 11^th in the US, it was the specially released Christmas album – “Under The Mistletoe” which also featured a funky remix of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas” in which he duets with her.
• Boyfriend –One of the cooler songs from his record collection, this was another song released in 2011 and had a real beat to it that people seemed to fall in love with. Even those that didn’t like Bieber loved this song and it made number 1 in the Canadian charts, and even acme 2^nd in the US and UK Charts too! This was from the album “Believe”
• Turn To You (Mother’s Day Dedication) –This song wasn’t from an album and was specifically released for Mother’s Day, as the name would suggest. Unfortunately, not everyone loved it, and it only reached number 60 in the US charts. In the Canadian charts it still only reached number 33.
• As Long As You Love Me –featuring Big Sean, this 2012 release was from the album “Believe” once again and reached a pretty impressive 6^th in the US charts.
• Beauty And A Beat –another collaboration, this time with the remarkable Nicki Minaj, Beauty And A Beat reached number 5 in the American charts and again, was from the “Believe” album.
• Right Here –another 2012 released song but this time featuring Drake, “Right Here” is yet another release from the “Believe” album and sadly only managed to hit a pretty feeble 95th in the US charts. In the UK charts, it didn’t even head into the top 100, topping at a miserable 125!
• All Around The World – this funky song features Ludacris and was his first 2013 release. Reaching 10 in the Canadian charts, 22 in the US charts and 30 in the UK charts, you can see the video for it here:

Of course, there have been a few songs released that have featured the Biebz too. For example, “Next To You” was one of the best songs to come out of 2011, reaching a pretty impressive 14^th place in the UK top 100. There was also “#thatPower” with will.i.am and Justin Bieber. There’s also the relatively new song by Miley Cyrus and Lil Twist called “Twerk” that also features JB. It would seem that he has been a very busy boy, especially with a new single called “Heartbreaker” soon to be released, and a new studio album on the way.

Of course, we can’t talk about the singles without talking about the albums as well. Here they are:

My World 2.0

Released in March of 2010, it reportedly sold over 5,000,000 copies worldwide, and three million of those were in the states alone! It even went triple platinum in Canada. This fabulous album contained the following songs:

• Stuck in the Moment
• U Smile
• Runaway Love
• Never Let You Go
• Overboard (feat. Jessica Jarrell)

Under The Mistletoe

This was Justin Bieber’s first Christmas album, although we would imagine there are many more to come! It was also his second studio album ever recorded, originally released in November of 2011. The album sold over 210,000 in the first week alone, and ended up being Justin Bieber’s third number one album. The track listing for this song included:

• Only Thing I Ever Get for Christmas
• Mistletoe

• Santa Claus is Coming to Town
• Fa La La (feat. Boyz II Men)
• All I Want for Christmas is You (duet with Mariah Carey)

• All I Want is You
• Home This Christmas (feat. The Band Perry)
• Silent Night

 Believe

This was Justin Bieber’s third studio album to be released, and first hit the shops in June, 2012. This album was a lot more grown-up for Justin, and he tried to leave a lot of his pre-teen roots behind, instead branching into more contemporary styles of music including dance, rap, hip hop and more. It actually sold more than one million units and was awarded for this, and with a first week sales total of over 370,000 copies, you can see how fast this album literally took over the world!

There were five singles released from this album, and the other tracks (in case you didn’t already know) can be found here:

Justin Bieber – Recent News & Up and Coming!

Justin Bieber has been in the news a lot recently. In fact, he has been in quite a bit of trouble over the years for various things, including getting angry and aggressive and making obscene gestures at a photographer. This was back in March of 2011, just before his 17^th birthday, and he did, of course apologize for the incident. However, in November of both 2012 and 2013, he was seen doing the same thing to different photographers, which has put a few fans off. Those who are die-hard fans protest that the photographers should have just left him alone… Which side of the fence do you stand on?

Also, in July of 2012, he was driving his car rather fast and got pulled over by California Highway Patrol, and he received a ticket plus two misdemeanor charges. It was originally four but two of these managed to get dropped. At the time, he said that he had been driving as fast as he was (160km/h in a 104km/h zone) because he had been trying to get rid of following paparazzi.

Of course, aside from the reckless driving and obscene gestures at photographers, Justin Bieber has also been in the news because of his pet monkey! (Yes – you did read that right!)The capuchin monkey called “Mally” was confiscated when he tried to get into Germany with the little furry creature, and the monkey was later re-homed in a wildlife park after Justin Bieber failed to provide legal documents for his rather unusual pet.

Again, this year he was in the media once more for his bad language and bad-tempered behavior, this time in March when he threatened to beat up a photographer. In his defence, the week had been a rather bad one for him after he fainted, turned up two hours late to be met by angry fans at the O2 arena in London, England, and there was the alleged “spitting” incident too.

And of course, there were those “Dad” rumors! These were promptly sorted out! Just to confirm – Justin Bieber is no baby-daddy.

We guess our little Justin Bieber isn’t quite so little anymore….

So what’s coming soon for Justin Bieber then?

As we have mentioned, there is the new movie called “Believe 3D” which is said to be released at some point this year – we’re in August already so it must be coming out really soon!

There is the new single called “Heartbreaker” which is also said to be released in the near future, probably around the same time as the movie for promotional reasons. This would also suggest that a brand new Bieber album is on the way. We cannot wait for that!
