Arh, boring. Why does Usher even give a crap about this guy. He can't sing and once he reaches pebutry I am sure he won't even able to sing for 100%.

Sorry, Justin, Iyaz wanted to write a symphony first and look how that turned out.
Given Pop radio's reaction to Bieber songs, I'd assume this'll burnout quickly enough.

JFC I lost track of how many singles he's had. Too many. He is the pure definition of disposable music.

Well, this is his fourth in only less than a year? Only God knows what's really going on at IDJ cuz I sure don't...
I agree that there rushing out singles like no tomorrow and it'll get old really quickly. I do agree that Baby wasn't that special, but it should have almost made Top 10 given how rapidly it shot up the chart.. I also know that One Time deserved what it got and OLLG deserved to at least scratch the Top 20 on radio. I haven't given this a listen yet, but when I have some free time, I'll try to throw this song in the mix.
Will this label ever let one of his songs become a hit instead of pull the plug after two or three months?

I think the point where he's become a joke has passed... yet they still provide funny fodder. This song sucks. lol. Do all the choruses in his songs have to be incessant repetitions of a single phrase or word? Can he not remember lyrics well?

His label probably pulls the plug on them constantly because they get so many sales from iTunes. Justin Bieber is probably profitable as hell for the label. Two 7-track albums, one which has already gone platinum. He may have underperformace at CHR, but the label could probably care less about that, as long as they get paid. He's selling platinum singles while barely reaching Top 15 CHR.
I do think they need to put some top quality stuff out there though, because with the way their handling things, their letting money come before his image. And what are they going to do when his voice drops and he starts growing a beard?

This reminds me about that group Kris Kross in 92. They had that one album and were huge and once they got like a year older and went through puberty that was that.
Justin Bieber == Kris Kross
Whatever comparison, this dude is the DEFINITION of disposable pop.

I don't know, but at each new song I hear, he sounds more and more like a girl.
With a little more auto-tune and he'd sound exactly like Kesha.

Well look at it this way. The faster he burns through these singles off of My World 2.0, the faster we can get rid of him. Thank God.

As long as he's spitting out platinum albums he'll be around MUCH longer than Kelly Clarkson, Ciara, Chris Brown, and Trey Songz who NONE can't even sell 1,000,000 copies

This will probably take off really fast and end up dying at #15. Like all of his other singles. LOL

I don't even think this will take off that fast. Radio seems to be getting tired of Justin's rapidfire singles, just as we are

JB is the new Taylor Swift. They should pump out 1 single a month if they want to. Make that $$$!!! If you guys would stop making fun of the kid for 2 seconds and listen to his CD, you would realize its actually pretty good. THAT SHOULD BE ME is a classic.

Well using that logic, then Susan Boyle is the greatest artist to ever grace the planet. And sorry-his songs are like Kidz Bop. I can't deal with that.

As long as he's spitting out platinum albums he'll be around MUCH longer than Kelly Clarkson, Ciara, Chris Brown, and Trey Songz who NONE can't even sell 1,000,000 copies Kelly Clarkson's latest effort sold sold 843,000+ copies. Ciara's latest effort sold 200,000+ copies. Chris Brown's latest effort sold 290,000+ copies. Trey Songz latest effort sold 521,500+ copies. I don't understand why you're throwing shade at Kelly. You're comparing her to these people, when Kelly sold more than 4x the amount Ciara did, almost 3x the amount Brown did, and sold over 300,000 copies more than Trey Songz. :S I feel like she really doesn't belong in your list of irrelevant artists. Kelly's latest effort had 3 Top 20 Hits Chris' latest effort had 1 Top 20 Hit Trey's latest effort had 1 Top 20 Hit Ciara's latest effort had 1 Top 20 Hits (and she cheated to get it) Why not replace Kelly for someone who actually legitimately flops? Anyway, you realize, you said "s long as he's spitting out platinum albums he'll be around MUCH longer than Kelly Clarkson", and you realize that Kelly has been around for 8 years, right? Somebody, tell me when did 8 years become a short amount of time?
