Justin Drew Bieber ( born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian pop/R&B singer, songwriter and actor.[Bieber was discovered in 2008 by Scooter Braun, who came across Bieber's videos on YouTube and later became his manager. Braun arranged for him to meet with Usher in Atlanta, Georgia, and Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG), a joint venture between Braun and Usher, and then to a recording contract with Island Records offered by L.A. Reid. Chris Hicks, Bieber's A&R at Island/Def Jam, explained the young artist's huge online following to HitQuarters by saying: "He was doing something different. He was an attractive white kid singing very soulful R&B hits. That set him apart immediately from anyone in his range because no one was covering or singing these kind of records. But equally important was that you believed in these songs - it was real. And you wanted to hear more." It was confirmed that Bieber will release his second studio album Under the Mistletoe, on November 1, 2011. Bieber is currently recording his third studio
album entitled Believe. Kanye West and Drake are confirmed to be featured on the album.
