Justin Bieber releases ‘Swag,' his long-awaited seventh album
Never say never! Justin Bieber surprised fans Friday by releasing 'Swag,' his seventh studio album, hours after he teased it on billboards and social media posts.
It is his first album since 2021's 'Justice' and his first since becoming a father last year.
'Inspired by his devotion as a husband and father, this new era of music has fueled a deeper perspective and more reflective sound, resulting in some of his most personal music yet,' Def Jam Recordings said of the 21-track album.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
Billboards depicting Bieber were found by fans Thursday in Reykjavik, Iceland, and Los Angeles. The singer also shared images of billboards on his official Instagram account along with a tracklist that included song names like 'All I Can Take,' 'Walking Away,' 'Dadz Love' and 'Forgiveness.'
Bieber, the two-time Grammy Award winning singer and Canadian pop idol who revolutionized teen pop and social media fame, is best known for his silky R&B pop lyric tenor, demonstrated on the diamond-selling 'Baby,' 'Sorry,' and 'Stay' with the Kid Laroi. At the beginning of his career, and as a tween, Bieber began working with Usher and the influential music manager Scooter Braun.
In 2023, Bieber sold the rights to his music — all six of his albums, including hits like 'Sorry' and 'Baby' — to Hipgnosis, a U.K-based music investment company. The deal's financial details were not disclosed, but Billboard Magazine reports that the sale was worth an estimated $200 million.
In August 2024, Bieber and his wife, the model Hailey Bieber (nee Baldwin), announced the birth of their first child, Jack Blues Bieber.

Who is Jameel Khan? Gullak's beloved dad now playing a crucial role in Mandala Murders
Veteran actor Jameel Khan, celebrated for his commanding screen presence and remarkable range, is back in the spotlight, this time for his compelling role in the Netflix crime thriller Mandala Murders. Widely recognized for his portrayal of the lovable father Santosh Mishra in SonyLIV's hit series Gullak, Khan's transition to a more intense, mystery-driven storyline marks an exciting and well-received departure from his usual roles. Who is Jameel Khan? Gullak's beloved dad now in Mandala Murders Jameel Khan, born on November 26, 1974, in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, studied at Sherwood College, Nainital, and later completed his Master's in Literature from Aligarh Muslim University. Initially not aiming for a career in acting, his passion for performance eventually led him to theatre and films. He began his film journey with a minor role in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999) and went on to appear in acclaimed films like Gangs of Wasseypur and Baby. However, it was his role Santosh Mishra in Gullak that brought him widespread recognition. Jameel Khan's role in Mandala Murders In Mandala Murders, Jameel Khan portrays Jimmy Khan, an English-speaking oculist with an intense fascination for mandalas and ancient symbols. Though he may initially seem like a supporting character, Jimmy quickly proves to be a key intellectual force in the investigation led by Rea (Vaani Kapoor) and Vikram (Vaibhav Raj Gupta). His character blends scientific accuracy with philosophical insight. As an oculist, a specialist in vision, his profession serves as a clever metaphor for his role in the story: helping others uncover hidden truths. More than just an advisor, Jimmy becomes a catalyst for discovery, steering the main characters through the symbolic and spiritual maze tied to the series of murders. Jameel Khan as Santosh Mishra in Gullak In the beloved slice-of-life series Gullak, Jameel Khan takes on the role of Santosh Mishra, the sensible yet lovable father of a typical middle-class North Indian family. As the head of the Mishra household, Santosh is a government employee navigating the everyday challenges of financial stress, parenting duties, and clashes between traditional values and modern outlooks.
