The post came shortly after he shared a video of himself rapping lyrics that included the phrase "fly high," following his representative's denial of drug use amid growing concerns about his behavior.

In the statement, a member of Bieber's team called the drug allegations "false" and described them as "exhausting and pitiful."

The spokesperson added, "Despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive."

The rep’s report also emphasized that this year has been "very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him."
