Justin Bieber’s unfollowing of Usher and Scooter Braun sparks speculation

Justin Bieber’s music teaser comes at a time when his social media activity has sparked additional speculation. On January 13, fans noticed that the singer had unfollowed several prominent figures, including Usher and Scooter Braun.

The move comes as a surprise, considering that Usher has been one of Bieber’s key mentors throughout his career, helping him sign with Def Jam Recordings when Bieber was a teenager.

Usher also collaborated with Bieber on the song Somebody to Love from Bieber’s debut album, 'My World 2.0'.

Bieber’s relationship with Scooter Braun, his former manager, was similarly significant, with Braun discovering Bieber at a young age and managing his career for over 15 years.
