Bieber is a Canadian pop singer who rose to fame in 2009 after releasing the hit single “One Time.” He has since released many successful hits and continues to be a major player on the music scene. He has also won many awards and made numerous appearances on television shows throughout his career.
His First Recording
When he was a young boy, Justin Bieber showed an interest in music and taught himself how to play the drums, guitar and piano, which led to him performing at school talent shows. Eventually, he developed a keen interest in singing and he began posting videos of himself on YouTube.
Scooter Braun accidentally stumbled upon one of these videos and immediately took notice of the talent. He arranged for Bieber to fly to Atlanta and meet with Usher, who quickly signed the singer to a deal.
At the age of 13, Bieber became a household name and instantly shot to fame. He is now considered a worldwide pop star and has sold over 50 million records to date, making him one of the top-selling artists of all time.
His First Album
Bieber’s debut album My World was released in 2009 and went on to be a massive success worldwide. The album featured hits such as “One Time” and “Baby,” both of which went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The album went on to earn Platinum certification in several countries and is considered a landmark album in the music industry. It also featured powerhouse producers like Christopher “Tricky” Stewart and The-Dream as well as Usher.
His Second Album and His Next Big Thing
After releasing My World in 2009, Bieber quickly followed it up with the release of his sophomore album My World 2.0 in 2010. This album was a huge hit and had his biggest song yet called “Baby,” which reached number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100.
He also teamed up with Diplo and Skrillex for the 2015 summer anthem “Where Are U Now,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100. The collaboration was a success and Bieber earned his first Grammy award for this song.
His third and latest album, Purpose, was released in 2015 and became a massive success. The album surpassed the sales of his previous albums and became his fifth million-selling record.
The title track on this album became a top-selling single and helped Bieber achieve his first multi-platinum record in the United States. The song also landed him the number-one spot on Spotify’s Hot 100 chart and the number-two spot on the iTunes chart, becoming his biggest success to date.
His latest album and upcoming tour are expected to be hugely successful as well. The singer is expected to be a major force in the music industry for years to come. He will most likely continue to sell millions of albums and will probably become a major player on the TV show circuit as well.
