Justin Bieber showed off his rap skills during his appearance on Power 106’s “Big Boy’s Neighborhood.” The pop star, who goes by the rap alter ego Shawty Mane, freestyled over Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “Otis” beat.
“I thank Jesus at the awards, I’m never going to hell/ Call me Zack Morris, I’m saving you by the bell/ My girl says I’m perfect, she just loves an imperfect person perfectly/ Personally, I think she is perfectly perfect,” he rhymed.
It will be hard to hate after you see the Biebs kill it live in the studio.
ok wow… he seriously just murked that ISH.. like wow.. alright now JB keep growing as an artist and u might get my attention..
U guys have admit that no one can knock his hustle… he is always hustling
@Teenay, bitch of course he wrote it before. Lotta people who “freestyle” on that spot have it pre-written. I’m not even a JB fan but why niggas gotta hate on him? Whether he wrote it before hand or not is pointless, point is HE CAN RAP.
@Oonthada, the problem is people saying freestyle to a written rap. Anybody says freestyle to a written rap is mad lame. Nothing about a written rap is freestyle. Wale, drake, Mac Miller, any body who says freestyle when they wrote the rap is super lame.
@Teenay, “bye justin”? Sure about that?… A lot of rappers write their sh*t before!.. but they’re not that good…..!How do u explain that? Really kills u that much to accept the fact that he’s got credibility!? Maybe you meant “he didn’t write this himself?”… even then… He was the one rapping… He just killed it.
@Teenay, Kanye West: Hot 97 Freestyle w/ Pusha. J Cole, Cosmic Kev’s Come Up Show. Wiz Khalifa Hot 97. Drake on Tim Westwood. #GetEducated before you think you know music. bitch
@Music, Bitch. He wrote it to the number! that’s not freestyling. I know artist’s freestyle pre-writen lines, but to other beats or no beats at all. You know your facts!!!
@Teenay, never said that he didnt write it before…and you never said that he wrote it to the number. you asked for someone to state names, and i did. biaaaatch

@Teenay, He has black fans jus maybe not you but that doesn’t seem to faze him hmmm
@Teenay, Whether he or someone else wrote it or not before hand, or even if he was reading of a paper in front of him, he has something a lot of “rappers” do not have, and that is FLOW, the kid can definitely rap if he put his time into it, he is still very young and can only get better.

@iRap, so we live in a day and age where femcees like Kreayshawn get second and third chances and hearthrob boys like Justin Bieber get applauded for spitting shit they did not write themselves? Wow… The whole point of being a rapper is that you can play with the words. Next thing is the delivery. Delivery and flow are things most people can learn. Coming up with clever lines however, that’s talent.
Im definitely not hating on the kid, hes making mad money and hes good at what he does…But…If anyone is naive enough to believe that justin bieber wrote this they need a reality check immediately. Still, whoever his ghostwriter is, needs to recieve credit for this cause those bars were hot
It wasn’t that bad… He has something going for himself, I can see that. But to say that he “killed” it… Remember, this is a Jay-Z and Kanye track. You gotta outdo them in order to kill their song in my opinion. BUT, I couldn’t do it better. So I take my hat off for Justin.
@JC, STFU what those having girl friend mention in it has to do with him having a write in the song use ur head u goose to just chip in a bar about his girl simple as that you simpleton.
@you know, because clearly no “GHOSTWRITER” cares or knows wth Selena freakin Gomez says about JB in a interview from months ago more than freakin JB duh
I must say that Justin killed that … written or not lil man got skills . That’s alot more than you can say about some of these rappers out here today having other people ghost write . #JB
@Sasha, HAHA they both aren’t that good. They don’t rap about anything worth listening to. #JustSayin. Go listen to some REAL hip hop and come back with a better comment.
dang leave him alone if he wants to showcase a verse he can.he improved so that’s good um mean its not like he’s a rapper ya’ll its just for fun #hopoffthenuts.
dont say freestyle if it aint off the top of the dome .freestyling is ALOT more challenging then pre writting a rap give that cred to artist who are actually clever enough to pull that off
not many can
Justin Bieber i love you so much and promise me one thing you would never bulle eneone because i have been bulled be for and it is not good so promise me
