Lame video for a decent song Justin didn't write but takes credit for
dickstroker-1802828 January 2017
Spend a lot of money, hire John Leguizamo for 20 seconds of screen time, big Hollywood camera crew and producers for a decent song that was written supposedly by Justin Bieber, Jason "Poo Bear" Boyd and Mason Levy. Nobody believes Bieber actually wrote a single lyric melody or groove production for this. It's time to end the madness. Bieber is a spokesmodel without an original thought. The great sadness is that this velveeta cheese posing as a musician songwriter is taking credit and getting paid handsomely for it. And that millions of sad dull people slavishly buy into it. No surprise that Trump was elected. This is just another sign of the Apocalypse.

Now let me make very clear what I mean

Warning: Spoilers
"Justin Bieber: What Do You Mean?" is the name of this title and you will see the name of the performer (struggle with the word "artist" here) and the name of his song. It is a music video that runs for minimally under five minutes and one of the more recent efforts by Justin Bieber who has already been famous for a long time now, "thanks" to Ellen DeGeneres back then I think. Anyway, the music video director here is Brad Furman who has also already worked with very successful actors on Hollywood filmms, but this cannot save the one we got here. The video is as pointless as it gets and all style over substance. Include some shameless underwear advertizing (I will spare you the name) and most generic pop music combined with showing us Bieber as a grown-up now strong enough to take care of one kidnapper, but not two while looking like an Aaron Carter clone. So far so bad. I think the song is about conversation(sommunication issues in relationships or lets say when meeting a new potential partner. Pf course these female partners here wear virtually nothing but underwear, but that goes without saying I assume. A bit sad to see not only Furman attached to this project, but also a respected actor like Leguizamo. Oh well, I guess they paid him enough to appear in this extremely weak project here. Highly highly not recommended and obviously Bieber is not one of these artists that get better the older they become.

Angelic Opinion!

You have to look beyond. If you can actually immerse yourself in his angelic vocals and dive beneath the crass commercialism of the video you can experience ecstasy and transcendence. I was weeping with joy. Justin is a cherub. My soul was touched by a finger of pure light.

It can help to understand this by imagining that something on a spectrum can be pushed so far to one side that it ends up transcending the spectrum and breaking free into the very ether of our universe. This is one of those moments for me. You need a plastic boy like Justin to reach the perfection of "just existing in itself".

The fact that this video randomly ends up in a skate park for no reason is too perfect. This is genius. Beyond satire, this is peeling back pop superficiality to find something truly holy and spiritual. I feel sorry for the souls who didn't get the message.
