Justin Bieber (born Justin Drew Bieber, March 1, 1994, in London, Ontario, Canada ) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, and global pop icon whose rise reshaped the modern music industry’s relationship with the internet, youth fame, and crossover longevity. Discovered at age 13 after talent manager Scooter Braun found his YouTube covers, Bieber signed with RBMG Records with the support of Usher releasing his debut EP My World (2009) and launching one of the most influential pop careers of the 21st century.
Biber became one of the best‑selling artists of all time, with over 150 million units sold worldwide and multiple records for streaming and chart performance.
In the mid‑2020s, Bieber entered a more selective phase of his career. After canceling the remainder of the Justice World Tour due to Ramsay Hunt syndrome, he publicly prioritized health, balance, and creative control. In 2025, he quietly released the albums Swag and Swag II, signaling a softer re‑engagement with music without immediately returning to full touring.
