Justin Bieber Audio Biography - Justin's Breakthrough
Justin Bieber is one of the biggest pop stars in the world, but his
journey to stardom was far from easy. In this episode, we'll
explore his breakthrough, from signing with Usher and L.A. Reid to
the release of his debut album, My World, and the "Baby" phenomenon
that made him a global superstar.
Justin Bieber was born in Stratford, Ontario, Canada, on March 1,
1994. He started singing at a young age, and his mother, Pattie
Mallette, would often post videos of him performing on YouTube. In
2007, one of these videos caught the attention of talent manager
Scooter Braun. Braun flew Justin and Pattie to Atlanta, Georgia, to
meet with Usher, who was immediately impressed by the young
talent.
Justin Bieber: I remember being so nervous when I first met Usher.
He was one of my biggest idols, and I couldn't believe that he was
actually interested in working with me.
Usher and his manager, L.A. Reid, signed Justin to their record
label, Raymond Braun Media Group. In 2009, Justin released his
debut EP, My World, which featured the hit singles "One Time" and
"One Less Lonely Girl." The EP was a huge success, selling over
137,000 copies in its first week.
In November 2009, Justin released his debut album, My World 2.0.
The album was even more successful than his EP, selling over
371,000 copies in its first week and debuting at number one on the
Billboard 200 chart. The album featured the hit singles "Baby,"
"Eenie Meenie," and "Somebody to Love."
"Baby" was a global phenomenon, becoming the fastest-selling
digital single in history. It also reached number one in over 20
countries. The song's music video, which features Justin Bieber's
then-girlfriend, Ludacris, has over 2.9 billion views on
YouTube.
Justin Bieber: "Baby" was a crazy time. I went from being a
relatively unknown kid to being one of the biggest pop stars in the
world. It was all happening so fast, and it was a bit
overwhelming.
His rise to teen stardom was meteoric. He was featured on magazine
covers, interviewed on talk shows, and performed at sold-out
concerts around the world. He also won numerous awards, including
the American Music Award for New Artist of the Year and the Grammy
Award for Best New Artist.
Justin Bieber's breakthrough was truly remarkable. He was just a
teenager when he became one of the biggest pop stars in the world.
His music has touched the lives of millions of people around the
globe, and he continues to inspire fans with his talent,
creativity, and resilience.
