« Kid Cudi Parties in Paris at Colette CarnavalRihanna, Kanye West Lend Voices to Brad Pitt’s ‘Make It Right’ Gala »Justin Bieber’s New Single Compared to Justin Timberlake, Ying Yang Twins![]() Justin Bieber’s love for hip-hop is influencing his new sound. The pop sensation shows off his rap skills on his new single “Boyfriend,” which is being compared to Justin Timberlake and the Ying Yang Twins.
The teen idol’s first single from his upcoming album Believe was produced by Mike Posner. Mick Lee, a DJ on Baltimore’s Z104.3, had a chance to hear the record in advance of its March 26 release and described it is a mix of Justin Timberlake’s “SexyBack” and ‘N Sync’s “Girlfriend.” “Wow….so much different than his previous music,” wrote Lee. “AND get this… he raps…best comparison is it sounds like ‘Wait’ by the Ying Yang Twins.” This would not be the Biebs first time rapping. He busted out some rhymes on his Christmas album Under the Mistletoe and collaborations with Chris Brown and Jaden Smith. He also freestyled over Biggie’s “Who Shot Ya?” and Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “Otis” during radio station visits. The follow-up to 2010’s My World 2.0 is expected to have a more mature and urban sound judging from Bieber’s collaborators, which include Pharrell, Drake, Timbaland, Danja, Hit-Boy, will.i.am, Diplo, and more.

@w, Classic? Hardly. Everyone knows JT looked up to MJ to the point where he basically copied MJs stuff. Too bad there will only be one MJ though.

@truebozz & w: I agree w/ you w … futuresexlovesounds is a great album from beginning to end. It was very different from everything else out & honestly still is. I don’t get the hype surrounding Justin Bieber but whatever.
P.S. Truebozz, there is difference between being influenced & copying. Listening to JT, you get MJ, Prince, Otis Redding, etc … JB just sounds live another “white kid” being pushed into the urban market for more financial gain by his handlers.

@Lauryn, Have you ever even listened to his music? He has soulful songs. He obviously has soul in his voice. He’s not just a pop artist, he sings R&B too. Just because hes white doesn’t mean he can’t do urban music. You’re just judging him off the one song you know by him. Until you actually explore and listen to his music you can’t say he’s trying to be something hes not. Quite possibly he just loves the hip hop/urban culture.

When You Hear Hip-Hop What Do You Think Black, Soul = Black, Pop = Mix! This Is How The World Turns So Stop Denying The Fact. All Of A Sudden He Wants To Do These Things, Because He Can See The Black Community Only See Him For Being Usher’s Artist Not Good. His Trying A Breezy, Wayne & All His Other Pals Thing & It’s Not Cool.

@MinajRules2012, So you have to be black to relate to hip hop? If that’s the case, then ALOT of these rappers would not have careers. It’s not about skin color, it’s about the vibe that person resonates. JB doesn’t resonate hip hop neither does JT however JT does resonate soul. He grew up in TN listening to old school soul artist & carries that tone over into his music.

@KaramelKisses, Go look up the type of music Bieber grew up listening to. You guys haven’t even let Justin grow up musically. Ya’ll keep going off the songs he made when he was 14-16 years old and that’s not where he is right now. He’s older, and his voice sounds better. At least wait for the NEW material.

March 11th, 2012 at 9:51 am
Oh god…I hope he isn’t going to try to act older than he really is. Speaking of Justin Timberlake, I hope he gets back in the studio soon and makes a new album. It’s approaching 6 years since “Future Sex/Love Sounds” came out. I have so many memories when I listen to that album. LOVED IT!

JT grew up in a southern baptist church singing gospel and listening to Al green and marvin Gaye, what gives him any less right to do RnB/hip hop than the next man? Skin color doesn’t determine whether or not you can emotionally connect with a certain genre of music. As for Justin Bieber…don’t really care either way. Hes 18 and im pretty sure hes going through a phase. Still, if he loves hip hop he loves hip hop. *kanye shrug

Can everyone seriously shut up about saying Justin Bieber needs to “be original” HOW DO YOU KNOW HE ISN’T? Exactly, YOU WONT KNOW UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY HEAR THE SONG. Don’t base your opinions on a review from a DJ!!!! It was only ONE review. In my opinion, Justin Bieber never matches the comparisons that are said about him. He’s original, and he’s HIS OWN PERSON. You can’t base opinions off ONE review. Jeez. Get a life.

Just because there are a lot of black artists in the hip hop game doesn’t mean that white people can’t excel in it too! Look at eminem and Mac miller…..they’re both white and are both very successful. Don’t judge a person by their skin colour. Anyone can have soul and anyone can rap, no matter what race we are. People need to get over stereotypes and go by the music! You are so ignorant and really need to learn how to stop judging people.

First of all music doesn’t have a race. For those of yall saying he needs to stay away from our culture stop it. Everyone is welcome to do whatever music they like. If he wants to do R&B music he can do R&B music. That’s very ignorant to say he needs to stay away from the Hip-Hop/R&B Culture. People need to stop putting race with music. Anyone can do any type of music they want. Look at Darius Rucker he’s a country singer and doing very well with country music. I don’t see white country singers complaining about a black man doing country music. They welcome this man with full arms. So stop it with the race thing. It ignorant and low. Justin Bieber can do anything he wants. Keep it up JB! I support you in anything you do. Forget the Haters! Keep doing your thing :)

@Jamie, I hate to inform you that you are, very INCORRECT.
Here’s a little lesson:
When Darius Rucker started out with Hootie and the Blowfish in the early 90′s, people (especially white people) loved their sound. Rucker himself has said in the past that he faced EXTREME RACISM at the hands of the “proclaimed” Hootie and the Blowfish fans. Once they say their videos and realized that they were listening to a black man on a guitar instead of your run-of-the-mill white guy through their radio speakers, they flipped and made all types of threats, including boycotting their music. Welcoming this man with open arms, eh? I don’t think so. Besides Darius Rucker and Lenny Kravitz, there are NO black artists making rank in the rock or country genres. Period.
The POINT IS, black artists are not able to crossover into predominately white music markets in the same way that whites can crossover in predominately black music markets. There is a coined term for white artists in R&B because so many of them became popular. This term is known as, “Blue-Eyed Soul”. There have also been a substantial amount of white rappers making a name for themselves in hip-hop (Eminem, Bubba Sparxx, Yelawolf, Mac Miller, MGK, Iggy Azalea, etc) .
SO STOP ACTING BLIND. Race, racism, and undercover racism are all prevalent in this country and world, including the music industry. I know many personally in the industry that have encountered such problems, which indicates that this is VERY MUCH ABOUT RACE.

@Lizzie, I’m just making my point clear. It’s evident that no white artists are being excluded from the black community, given the success Justin Timberlake and Eminem (among others) have had.
It’s only the black artists that can’t easily make their way into rock and country. This type of talk sheds light on the issue as opposed to covering it up like it doesn’t exist. You’re right that all races of people can exhibit racially insensitive behavior, but when was the last time black people boycotted a white artist because of their skin color?
Everyone should be able to make the kind of music they want, bottom line – without the racism.

@Triniti, Wow. You make it sound like being white is something to hate on – like it’s a positive, beneficial thing to be white. “The Come Up”, even. Like everyone on here that mentions him being white wants what he has. Nope, I’m afraid not.
“Successful, white, rich, and slaying your fav?” – Sounds a bit off to me.
I don’t think anyone is envious of or hating on his skin color. If anything, it’s that he’s trying to use the urban market to further capitalize, having already achieved a substantial amount of mainstream success in the pop market. So get out of here with that nonsense.

@Lizzie, Nicki Minaj crosses over in to dance/pop music. Many black people have already made incredible contributions to dance/pop music and have helped established the genre for musicians of all races to follow. These artists include Grace Jones, Donna Summer, Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, La Bouche, and countless others from the 80′s and 90′s. In addition, the whole “DJ scene” in the dance/pop genre originated from Hip-Hop and its pioneers, so… I don’t think so.
However, the influx of “white rappers” and r&b singers is fairly new. R&B and Hip-Hop comes from an authentic place and is traditionally based on specific locations where the artists come from (ex. Chicago Blues, New Orleans Jazz, Philly Soul, NY Rap, etc.) If the white artists that attempt to make R&B and Hip-Hop are from areas that don’t coincide with the authenticity or roots of the genres, it comes off fraudulent. Bieber comes from Canada, Iggy Azalea comes from Australia, Justin, Yelawolf and others come from small, predominately white towns in the South. R&B and Hip-Hop was originally based on the experiences of black people and the communities that they live in. Dance, Pop, Rock, etc all universal genres. Dance clubs and rock bars didn’t originate in a specific place, so there is a major difference here.
Plus, black artists are not able to crossover as easily as white artists How many black rock stars do you know? Case Closed.

You guys could ALL stop hating on Bieber.He is being his own person. it doesn’t matter if he is being white or black, because it really doesn’t matter as long as you have GOOD music to listen to. If you guys think that he is being a copy-cat then think again,you don’t see him rapping about sex or drugs, you see him making his own music that is inspired by other people. I’m pretty sure some of you guys even try to act like some of the stars that are out now so all i have to say is
GET A LIFE !!!!

Of course, he’s a Chris Brown wanna be…whatever Chris Brown do, he do..if Chris go country, so will he…but that’s not just him…I’m sick of all singers trinna rap (Chris Brown, Trey Songz, Justin Bieber, beyonce)if you didn’t start off doing it, don’t do it now because it’s popular…and don’t say “it’s for fun” cus u would put it on a mixtape where it’s free and not a album 2 make pofits…

Okay this whole conversation is pure rubbish. I ever since JT started his solo career he’s set up ANY white kid that comes after him that wqnts to get Into the RnB game to be compared to him. The samw with Eminem and the white Rapper after him.
I LOVE JT believe me I was the first in line for his Future/Sex/Love/Sound tour, and ill always remember that day! But I also like Justin’s music. I always thought before Justins first single came out that he would do better with the RnB style music.
If he wants to try out a different style so be it. It doesnt mean he’s trying to be “black” its what he’s been influenced by. Hip-hop and RnB stop being “black” thing WAY before Bieber came around!
Get over yourself and stop hating on someone you don’t know. If you hate someone then dont waste your time reading up on him… I never understood that about Haters…
[Reply]
March 11th, 2012 at 9:43 pm
There’s always more room for new music, a new sound, and an artist that will go extra and beyond for his fans and his love for music. Respecting an artist is so difficult these days for some. People need to realize that if you love music, hating a certain type only makes you a hater. Bieber will go far and ill be right with him along with 18 million+ fans. Get real people. Stop the hate. I love the biebs.always have, always will

I didnt know that to relate to hip hop you had to beat the shit outta people, knock your girl up, be a deadbeat parent, try and start s–t with everyone, and what not. Pretty sad and messed up that no one really knows where hip hop really resonated from. The caribbean is where it all began and it was mainly a giant community circle that gathered in the town for a few days to play bongos and dance. The correct vernacular you are probably looking for is rap. However its not a black related genre. Rap is to express s–t you have been through in life. It doesn’t have to be hardcore. JB has been through some stuff in his life and he’s using good stepping stones to branch out of the pop culture into the hip jop/r&b scene. Don’t hate on the kid cause he has mad talent. I support you JB. Do the damn thing bruh!! :p

well…i love JB not only because of his pretty face, music and stuff but more for his beautiful personality!he does so much for different charities.
all the guys of our planet should look up to him and learn HOW TO TREAT GIRLS RIGHT!he treats girls like princesses…he loves ONLY ONE GIRL and doesn’t need dozens of girls…of course Justin loves his beautiful girls-beliebers but just like FAMILY MEMBERS!what about haters..he doesn say shit about them and stays nice even to people who keep on saying shit about him and spreading stupid rumors!
now, he is 18.HE IS growing up just like ANY NORMAL TEENAGE GUY.and of course he is changing.he changes his hair style,his voice is changing and so does his music! WHY NOT? everyone has the right to do what they like and what they want.
NOW TO ALL THE HATERS OUT THERE: keep ur hate to yourself and don’t spoil people’s lives with ur shitty words! and if u hate Justin so freaking much then WHY THE HELL ARE U EVEN READING ALL THE STUFF ABOUT HIM ON THE INTERNET?? u seem to know about him way more than BELIEBERS do..JEALOUS?? of course u are!
now go look in the mirror..see? you are maybe 16 or 19 or whatever age u are u are still nothing to the world. u’ve done NOTHING GOOD TO THE HUMANITY. u just sit there,stare on the monitor and think of new shit to say about the person who managed to reach so much and to do so much good in such an early age.HE INSPIRES MILLIONS AND WHATEVER U ALL SAY HE STILL STAYS FLAWLESS TO US!

Justin bieber is talentless, his music is god awful pop, and he can’t dance either. He is manufactured.
And don’t tell me he can sing, because he can’t. Especially since his voice broke, it is absolutely one of the worst i’ve ever heard.
He is not RnB LMAO!

AND IF U DON’T LIKE HIM, THE DON’T COMMENT, SIMPLE AS THAT. STAY OUT OF HIS LIFE AND GET INTO YOURS ! YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA HOW HE IS, WHO HE IS, AND U MAY SAY WE NEITHER, BUT U DON’T EVEN IMAGINE THE RELTHIONSHIP JUSTIN & BELIEBERS HAVE, U HAVE NO SERIOUSLY NO IDEA WHO HE IS, NEITHER WHO WE ARE. IF U DON’T LIKE, STOP BOTHERING !

Can EVERYONE stfu please? Lol…NOW, HE DEFINITELY IS TRYING TO SOUND LIKE J.T…Idgaf what yous think but you gotta think of it this way, j.b needs to pay bills like everyone els. You and I both know that, that “baby,baby” 12 year old girl shit wouldn’t last forever so as an artist you have to put on your thinking cap and take notes of the others who did it big, think of ways to keep the money coming in. “Switch it up”. I can’t stand the dude but I respect that as an artist he’s thinking of ways to reinvent himself but what I don’t respect is that he’s trying to get into rap but dosent write his own shit and the sad thing is “his” raps are wack. But yeah if he’s becoming this gimmick then its his choice….
