A platinum album in less than two months of release, seven songs from a debut album hitting the top pop 100, awards and nominations, live performances and world tours, this is now the life of a sixteen-year old Canadian pop and R&B singer, Justin Bieber. After his video was discovered on the YouTube by a former marketing executive, Scooter Braun, Justin Bieber's success has taken the music scene by storm.
Some folks in the music industry compare him to Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson with his great moves, good looks and soulful songs. Justin comes from Ontario, Canada where some of his friends never realized he could even sing. He began singing around the house for his own entertainment and one day, at 12 years of age, he entered a singing competition just for fun. Surprisingly enough he came in second place and that was the beginning of his bright future in the music world.
The amateur footage uploaded on YouTube caught the Atlanta manager's attention, Scooter Braun, who later became Bieber's manager. Braun then introduced Justin to RnB superstar Usher whom the latter arranged an audition with Antonio L.A. Reid at Island Def Jam Music Group. Reid in turn signed him to Island Records in October 2008.
On July 2009, while still recording his debut album, Bieber's single, "One Time" was released in the radio. After merely a week, the song charted within the top 30 in over ten countries and was a certified Platinum in Canada and the US, and Gold in Australia and New Zealand. Before fall ends, on November 17, 2009, his debut album My World was released. Three consecutive singles from the album, "One Less Lonely Girl", "Love Me", and "Favorite Girl", were released exclusively on the iTunes store with the first debuting on radio, too.
Since then Justin has done several concerts worldwide, appearing on international stages and climbed the popularity charts thanks to young girls from six to sixteen. It is hard to say which is the biggest draw to this young man - his looks or his music, or perhaps the magic is the combination of the two. He is definitely on the road to success and his Justin Bieber doll collection will be a winner with his fans as well.
Other than the music he has release a 3D movie, acted in CSI as a troubled teenager, was a presenter at the Grammys, has been invited to as a guest to all the top late night and morning TV shows, has won tons of awards and performed for the president of the United States of America. What a mouthful. He has achieved so much at the age of 16 that most would not even contemplate in their lifetime. So is that it? No way , he is just getting started. With the Justin Bieber Doll line, nail polish, fragrance and so many other products to be launched, he is making sure that if and when his popularity fades, he will not have to worry about financial status later on.
