still doesn’t really get the credit he’s earned. The string of celebrity relationships, the bad-boy behavior, the tattoos and ever-evolving hair styles and hues — all these things have had a tendency to distract from the obvious, which is: That boy can sing. He’s a blue-eyed soul stirrer who somehow always has avoided sounding like a white guy trying to pass for black. His R&B tendencies are natural and unforced and, most importantly, never gratuitously flashy.
“My World 2.0,” in 2010, was awash in the sort of happy-go-lucky pop that dominated the decade before it. “Believe” negotiated the dance sounds that were popular circa 2012 while starting his slow swerve into the R&B lane. “Purpose” kept one foot in EDM pop and the other in soul, and now, with “Changes,” Bieber goes all the way to the latter side.
This is not just a formidable soul man’s coming of age. It’s also the emergence of a brand new Bieber, a happily married 25-year-old with everything to lose. It’s no surprise that he chose to release it on the romantic holiday that he did. On the cover, he poses shirtless on a backdrop of red. Love is indeed in the air.
It took a coterie of writers and producers to construct the songs on “Changes,” but the lyrics sound 100 percent Bieber. If the tortured-artist credo is to be believed, romantic contentedness is no state in which one should create works of art. You may end up with “Yummy” lyrics instead of the intricate wordplay of 2015’s “Love Yourself.”
