This song is tone-deaf and an embarrassing statement from two of the biggest pop stars from the latter half of the 2010s decade.
What the hell is this? It's like Yummy, but on expired country crack.
Breezy and destined for chart success, this collaborative effort from two pop titans sees them essentially whine about party cliches. It's breezy but does not bring out the best from either artist.
Glossy and blissful, Justin's streak of great singles continues with the tropical "Company"--a song about his own world as a young superstar.
Ed Sheeran's influence screams right at you, so blatant that it's almost embarrassing. Yet, the song is unmistakably Justin's as evidenced by the insistence to name the song "Love Yourself" in favor of Sheeran's original "Fuck Yourself."
The horns are a nice touch, and the song's message, divorced from the Selena drama, holds firm as a relatable piece of folky pop.
"Sorry" is a spectacular pop hit. Forget that Justin Bieber's name is attached, forget the pointless drama, and just listen!
The production is a testament to Skrillex's ability to produce pop tunes at a high level still, and vocally, it remains among the most earnest-sounding in his career.
Bieber's first chart-topper sees him lean into a more tropical sound. The result is a pretty banger song that stands among his best.
Sure, it's sappy and incredibly melodramatic. Still, despite the poorly aged dubstep and filler Big Sean feature, this is easily the best from the early-Bieber era and proves his hitmaking ability and knack for unforgettable choruses.
In hindsight, this collaboration was bizarre. Sean Kingston was hot off a rising chart single, and Justin Bieber was arguably the biggest new name in the internet era. The single is silly but has its own charm that no one should be faulted for enjoying.
Overhated upon release, this early-Bieber single has become a cult classic for a reason: it is nostalgic and harmless. However, the reappraisal does not change the fact that the song is trite and laughably histrionic.
Cute single with some inventive pop production (using a bottle cap, for example). It is not the greatest song out there, but it is catchy enough and certainly among the best from that horrid album.
Another single that bastardizes an already laughable novelty track with some of the silliest Future verses imaginable. Never mind Drake and whatever the heck that flow is.
Amazing buildup that segues into one of the tackiest choruses of the 2010s, with a horrendous sample use to boot.
