The 31-year-old has surprised listeners with a second new album in 2025 — "Swag II" follows July's "Swag."

Both arrived shortly after mysterious billboards teasing the records cropped up in major cities. The new album, his eighth, is an obvious companion piece, not only in name, but also in sound, theme and zeal. Liken it to Taylor Swift's "The Tortured Poets Department" double album drop — the 23-track album is for his diehard loyalists. (Or 44 tracks, if listened to with "Swag," a combined run time of two hours and 11 minutes.)

The first installment was, in some ways, a return to form. Before he became the Internet's first true popstar, and long before he'd find additional fame for his EDM-pop megahits Where Are Ü Now and What Do You Mean?, Bieber was a 12-year-old Canadian kid uploading R&B covers to a YouTube account created by his mom to share with his friends.
