Like Swag, Bieber announced the new LP a day before its arrival with a flurry of Instagram posts featuring billboards and other large-scale promotions of the album cover. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-album-reviews\/justin-bieber-swag-review-1235384154\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rolling Stone review of Swag<\/a>, writer Rob Sheffield wrote that while the album \u201cdefinitely makes it clear that Bieber\u2019s got issues \u2014 his issues have issues,\u201d the singer \u201cchannels it all into some of the most genuinely creative and wide-ranging music of his life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tSwag had been Bieber\u2019s first album in four years. In the time since releasing 2021\u2019s Justice, Bieber had been dealing with a series of career setbacks and health scares. He canceled his massive world tour in support of Justice following a Ramsay Hunt Syndrome diagnosis, which left part of his face paralyzed. He also quietly parted ways with longtime manager Scooter Braun, who had discovered Bieber on YouTube when the singer was quite young. Rumors have swirled about both personal and financial tensions that led to the dissolution of their professional relationship. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tLast year, Bieber became a first time dad with wife Hailey. Their son Jack Blues turned one a couple weeks ago. <\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bieber&#8217;s eighth album arrives less than two months after his seventh LP, Swag Justin Bieber has much more&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":45052,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[264],"tags":[18,117,15559,19,17,741,337],"class_list":{"0":"post-45051","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-hailey-bieber","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-justin-bieber","14":"tag-music"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45051"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45051\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
