His worldwide fame and industry success are undeniable and Justin Bieber is the modern-day Bob Dylan, at least in the eyes of his manager Scooter Braun.
In a new interview with Billboard magazine, Braun discussed the “Baby” singer’s latest project- a track called “Where Are U Now” with Diplo and Skrillex- “Justin laid down that vocal in the studio on a piano, and I didn’t know what to do with it. I saw Diplo in a club, and he told me he and Skrillex were working on this Jack U album. Those guys ran with it, and now they have this huge record all around the world.”
And when Justin appeared onstage with Diplo and Skrillex at the Ultra Music Festival back in March, Scooter was blown away. “Martin pulled Justin aside and said, ‘Listen, man, I don’t know what’s going to happen out there on that stage, but I’m really glad you’re doing this.’
It’s like Bob Dylan. He pissed people off, but whenever he switched, he reinvented himself in a way that made him who he is today.”
