An old soul is the last thing wewe would expect to find inside Justin Bieber. But all it takes is one listen to the 15 year-old soul-singing phenomenon to realize that he is light years ahead of his manufactured pop peers.
After posting dozens of homemade video on YouTube in 2007, where the multi-talented Bieber put his impeccable spin on songs from artists like Usher, Ne-Yo and Stevie Wonder, Justin racked up over 10,000,000 maoni purely from word of mouth.
"I started imba about three years ago," says the Canadian native who grew up an only child in Stratford, Ontario. "I entered a local imba competition called Stratford Idol. The other people in the competition had been taking imba lessons and had vocal coaches. I wasn't taking it too seriously at the time, I would just sing around the house. I was only 12 and I got sekunde place."
In an effort to share his victory with his loved ones, Justin began posting his performance footage online. "I put my imba video from the competition on YouTube so that my Marafiki and family could watch them," he says. "But it turned out that other people liked them and they started subscribing to them. That's how my manager found me. He saw me on YouTube and contacted my family and now I'm signed!"
Seven months after Justin started posting his video online, former So So Def marketing executive Scooter Braun flew the then 13-year old singer to Atlanta, GA to meet with his elite colleagues. As if Justin's natural imba talent wasn't enough to impress Scooter's inner circle, Braun knew Bieber was also a self-taught musician who plays the drums, guitar, kinanda and trumpet.
"Right when we flew into Atlanta, Scooter drove us to the studio and Usher was there in the parking lot," remembers Bieber. "That was my first time ever being out of Canada so I went up to him and was like, ‘Hey Usher, I upendo your songs, do wewe want me to sing wewe one?' He was like, ‘No little buddy, just come inside, it's cold out.'"
All it took was a short time online for Usher to realize he was in the company of a future superstar. "A week later Usher flew me back to Atlanta," says Bieber. "I sang for him and his people and he really wanted to sign me then and there but I still had a meeting with Justin Timberlake who also wanted to sign me. It turned out Usher's deal was way better. He had L.A. Reid backing him up and Scooter had a lot of really good connections in Atlanta. I always tease Usher now and remind him he how he blew me off the first time we met."
In October of 2008, Justin Bieber officially signed to Island Records. His debut album, My World is an intimate look into the mind of a budding young renaissance man. With production from nyota hit men like The Dream and Tricky Stewart who produced "Umbrella" for Rihanna and Beyonce's latest smash, "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)," Justin has everything he needs to achieve pop supremacy.
His first single, "One Time" produced kwa Tricky, is about one of Justin's inayopendelewa topics, puppy love. Usher joins Justin on "First Dance" where the two share verses on a song that Bieber describes as, "A slow groovy song that people can dance to." On the Midi-Mafia produced "Down to Earth" Justin digs deep to talk about growing up. "Bigger" finds the teenaged singer maturing at a steady rate, while motivating his listeners to strive for their goals.
"I'm looking mbele to influencing others in a positive way," says Justin. "My message is wewe can do anything if wewe just put your mind to it. I grew up below the poverty line; I didn't have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger as a person it built my character. Now I have a 4.0 grade point average and I want to go to college and just become a better person."
A virtually untapped well of natural artistic talent, Justin Bieber is primed to be a solid force in muziki for many years to come. "I think older people can appreciate my muziki because I really onyesha my moyo when I sing, and it's not corny," he says. "I think I can grow as an artist and my mashabiki will grow with me." And just think, he's just getting started.

Last we heard Selena Gomez alisema that she had not had a tarehe in 6 months and now it is Justin Bieber who says that is impossible to go on a tarehe with anyone because he simply does not have the time. He also mention who his dream women is: Cheryl Cole!
The Canadian singer alisema that he doesn't like being single but his agenda won't let him date. He thinks that Cheryl Cole from London is truly hot, but let's face it, he is way too young for her.
During his free time, Justin visited a muziki camp for kids where he gave tips on how to get into the biz and how to play certain instruments. The camp was in Florida and he showed up kwa surprise. He also donated 5,000 dollars to the camp.
It is wonderful that Justin puts his mashabiki first. But do wewe think he should also spend some time thinking about love?
Justin Bieber showed his generous side kwa donating some of his tamasha earnings to help victims of the floods in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Baby nyota performed there yesterday (Wednesday August 11) at the Bridgestone Arena and decided to donate zaidi than $30,000 to help the city, which was devastated kwa the storms in May.

Although Lady Gaga in heavily considered the big winner Tuesday with 13 nominations for the 2010 MTV Video muziki Awards (airing September 12), Justin Bieber also received some upendo in the Best New Artist category.
So what was the "Baby" singer's response to all of the attention? Justin shared his thoughts in a new post on his Twitter page:
"Just found I was nominated for Best New Artist at the VMA's! WOW!! I remember walking the red carpet last mwaka and no one knew my name ... thank wewe to @mtv im honored and congrats to all the nominees and to @ladygaga for her record breaking 13 noms. That's pretty pretty good."
Bieber also cleared up some hivi karibuni rumors regarding a book being made about him -- he's not working on a memoir, but rather publishing a book full of exclusive stuff surrounding his tour.

Justin Bieber's voice breaking has been one of the most hotly-anticipated and simultaneously dreaded events in hivi karibuni muziki history. Lucky for those infected with the Fever - he's got it all taken care of. Bieber told Vibe.com: "Everyone's voice changes, puberty is a natural thing.
"I have the best vocal coach in the world and we're working on my voice and doing what I need to do."He added: "It's not like as soon as wewe hit puberty wewe stop singing." True dat. Justin also offered anecdotes about his mum bossing him around.

"The girls onyesha up wearing nothing. I can't lie, I'm 16, I don't hate it. I don't have a girlfriend. My mum is still my mum, she could care less if I'm an international superstar, I still have to clean my room on the tour bus."

Rumor has it that Justin Bieber was spotted with a fan! In romance condition, unless underneath her leather koti, jacket and fedora hat and $10 glasses, she was a celebrity.

Justin Bieber has high standards when it comes to girls. The 16-year-old singer – who recently confessed to having a crush on 29-year-old socialite Kim Kardashian – admits he is very choosy when it comes to potential dates. He said: “A girl has to have a beautiful smile, beautiful eyes and she should have a good sense of humour. She should be honest, loving and trustworthy.”
The teenage heartthrob is adamant he isn’t just interested in beauty, and says it is just as important to him that a girl has a good personality.
He added in an interview with German newspaper BILD: “It would be a shame to go out with a hot girl wewe can’t have a decent conversation with!”
Just recently admitted an age gap in a relationship wouldn’t be a problem for him – as long as the woman wasn’t over 40. He said: “Anything above 40 is a little too old for me. I just look for a girl who is funny and has nice eyes and a smile.”

Showbiz Spy is reporting that Justin Bieber broke up with a girl over the phone – after he had dated her for 7 months! Justin said:
"I have dumped a girl over the phone – it’s terrible isn’t it? We got into an argument during a phone call so I basically said, ‘I don’t wanna be with wewe any more’, and she cried. I saw her after that and it was a bit awkward. But we’re not enemies now, so that’s cool. But I wouldn’t recommend it, it’s very mean!"
