Purpose
Purpose is the fourth studio album by Canadian singer and songwriter Justin Bieber. It was released on November 13, 2015, by Def Jam Recordings and School Boy Records. It serves as the follow-up to Bieber's third studio album Believe (2012) and was quickly developed after the release of his collection, Journals (2013), which saw him in a more R&B direction. Working throughout a period of almost three years on the album, Bieber struggled to find a musical direction for the record and scrapped it many times until he became satisfied with its ending result that matched with his mindset of having a cohesive sound.
With the help of personal friend and frequent collaborator Jason "Poo Bear" Boyd, Bieber started to write and record heavily on the album with the idea of doing an inspirational album that could encourage people through uplifting messages in a period of media scrutiny and his envolvement in various misdemeanours as well as his tumultuous relationships.
Purpose was described as a mix of both EDM music and R&B, as well as having influences of tropical house in some tracks and live instruments such as acoustic guitars in some others, while being defined as a coming of age album about apologies, faith and recovery after harsh times. The album received generally favorable reviews from most music critics, who praised the consistent sound, noted his artistic growth and deemed it as his best album. A few critics however noted that the album focus in excess on his apology requests, which some felt it made the album too serious at times. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 63, based on 20 reviews.
