Justin is a Canadian pop-R&B singer, songwriter and musician. His performances on YouTube were seen by Scooter Braun, who later became his manager. Braun arranged for him to meet with Usher in Atlanta, Georgia, and Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG), a joint venture between Braun and Usher, and then to a recording contract with Island Records offered by L.A. Reid.
His debut single, "One Time" (lihat: lirik lagu Justin Bieber One Time), was released worldwide during 2009, and charted within the top 30 in over ten countries. It was followed by his debut release, My World on November 17, 2009, which was certified platinum in the United States, which at the time gave Bieber the highest debut by a new artist in the year, and made Justin Bieber the first artist to have seven songs from a debut album chart on the Billboard Hot 100.
His first full studio release, My World 2.0 was released on March 23, 2010 and has since received similar success; debuting at number one and within the top ten of several countries and was certified platinum in less than two months of release in the United States. It was preceded by international hit song "Baby" in January 2010 (lihat:lirik lagu Justin Bieber Baby).
Justin Drew Bieber was 12 years old when he entered a local singing competition in Stratford, placing in second. He taught himself how to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet. In late 2007 Justin and his mother began posting videos on YouTube so that his family and friends that could not attend his performances would be able to view them, posting cover versions of songs by artists such as Usher, Stevie Wonder, Ne-Yo, Justin Timberlake and Michael Jackson.
He was soon approached by a Toronto-based company called Rapid Discovery Media, who assisted him in running his YouTube and MySpace accounts, producing, editing and promoting his videos. After posting his rendition of Chris Brown’s "With You" (lihat: lirik lagu Chris Brown With You), Brown personally called Bieber and congratulated him on his YouTube recognition.
Selain menyanyi, Bieber juga pernah menjadi presenter untuk Grammy Awards ke-52. Prestasinya dalam dunia musik membuatnya menjadi penyanyi pop solo termuda yang mampu merajai tangga lagu dunia. Woww.. luar biasa..!!
