Justin Bieber releases 'Swag,' his long-awaited seventh album
by Naharnet Newsdesk 11 July 2025, 16:46 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. 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.

Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 1. 'Daises' — The second track on the album may very well be its strongest; an exemplar in Bieber's slow-burn brand of alternative R&B-pop, now anchored with lo-fi guitar. Here, his sweet voice is pronounced — exactly what his most dedicated fans want to hear. 2. 'Devotion' ft. Dijon — Dijon is a rising R&B voice; some fans might be familiar with his 2021 debut album 'Absolutely' or his contribution to Bon Iver's 3. 'Go Baby' - Bieber married the model Hailey Bieber (nee Baldwin) in 2018; she's long been source material for his most loving tracks. 'Go Baby' is a standout for that reason. 'That's my baby, she's iconic,' he opens the track, 'iPhone case, lip gloss on it,' referencing her Rhode skincare and beauty brand, which sold to Elf Beauty in a $1 billion deal. Advertisement 4. 'Walking Away' - Marriage isn't easy; that's clear on 'Walking Away,' a slightly-more-uptempo track where Bieber makes his dedication evident. It's the perfect song for dancing in the kitchen with your partner. 5. 'All I Can Take' - The throwback opener 'All I Can Take' has a vintage groove — echoes of Beiber's early work, now matured to reflect his current adult reality. He sounds as sweet as ever in the pre-chorus, his declaration of 'Ooh, baby, don't it feel good? Baby, don't it feel nice? / Ooh, baby, don't it feel good? You don't have to think twice.'
