    Apesar de não explicar o porquê do uso de um discurso de Martin Luther King, que digamos, ficou soltou na letra das músicas que falam exclusivamente sobre sua esposa, o album tem seus méritos se comparado ao anterior, é realmente melhor.

    The new album of American star Justin Bieber, "Justice", tries to be open and vulnerable, exploring the secret parts of Justin's heart, but without going as far as one would like it, and perhaps without even going at all, the album is trying to get out from the steps of the previous "Changes", but with "airport waiting room background music" Justin was only able to move up to some abstractThe new album of American star Justin Bieber, "Justice", tries to be open and vulnerable, exploring the secret parts of Justin's heart, but without going as far as one would like it, and perhaps without even going at all, the album is trying to get out from the steps of the previous "Changes", but with "airport waiting room background music" Justin was only able to move up to some abstract station, a sound that mixes guitar, piano and sliding beats is the best this one can providealbum, but not ideal to make it a major asset. The lyrics are losing the stigma "sex is the only pleasure" to a more meaningful text, atoning for some of their guilt, but in the end, the album is not a full reflection of its name, sometimes "atonement" slides down to primitive natural instincts and stereotypical relationships in marriage, which was the main problem of "Changes"… Expand

    Nem é bom nem é ruim
    As letras e a produção são ok mas nada q chegue a impressionar. A parte oitentista e as pegadas de R&B são claramente pra tentar surfar no hype, elas ficam bem desconexas. É uma evolução comparado ao changes até pq seria difícil fazer outra bomba igual aquela

    Confuso. Justin parece ter, finalmente, encontrado seu nicho musical e evoluído como cantor, no entanto, isso não quer dizer que evoluiu acerca de sua identidade. O projeto possui músicas interessantes e divertidas de ouvir, mas, quando unidas em um álbum, soam genéticas, repetitivas e sem muito rumo conceitual.

Justin parece ter, finalmente, encontrado seu nicho musical e evoluído como cantor, no entanto, isso não quer dizer que evoluiu acerca de sua identidade. O projeto possui músicas interessantes e divertidas de ouvir, mas, quando unidas em um álbum, soam genéticas, repetitivas e sem muito rumo conceitual.
    "Justice" circula em volta de seu relacionamento com Hailey. Inicialmente, não seria um problema, até você perceber que o álbum contém quase 16 faixas variantes da mesma - e cansativa - narrativa. Como mencionado, muitas das músicas, de forma isolada, possuem certa qualidade, no entanto, ouvir repetidamente sobre os mesmos dois tópicos (amor e insegurança) dentro seu relacionamento é exaustivo.
    Um detalhe irritante é a falta de coesão no álbum. A sequência de "MLK interlude", uma faixa emocionante com um trecho marcante de um discurso de Martin Luther King, para "Die For You", um pop romântico para Hailey, chega ser um insulto, mesmo tratando-se de uma boa canção.
    "Justice" transparece a incapacidade de criar o inovador, de sair da caixa, de criar histórias. Em um geral, é divertido e com faixas interessantes, mas o conjunto é decepcionante.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Justice was a disappointment for me, and i was not expecting to be disappointed because many of the teasers were just so so good. It was such a breath of fresh air when it became clear that Justin was abandoning the spacey trap beats that defined his previous effort, Changes. The first offering, Holy is a gospel inspired ballad featuring Chance the Rapper. It was really great and unlike anything he had done before. The collaboration with Benny Blanco, Lonely was also another great, heart-breaking and personal ballad. Anyone is truly one of Justin Bieber's best songs ever, the melody, vocal performance. production and songwriting on the song is just so good. The fourth single , Hold On was less significant but still acceptable . So i was highly expectant going into the album but the final album is a mix of songs that show artistic progression and some that show stagnancy or even regression. Songs like 2 Much, Die For You, Off My Face, Somebody and As I Am could easily fit on Believe or Purpose (his previous albums) and that is not a compliment. The two collaborations at the back end of the album , Love You Different and Loved By You are acceptable and they make for a good ride but are still awfully formulaic and predictable. The collaboration with Khalid was so lackluster and could have been much better, i think. Unstable is a great collaboration and its one of the better songs with the themes of loving someone through their dark times, It is well written and The Kid Laroi gives one of the more unique and memorable guest features on the album. Peaches is the highlight of the album, with a catchy chorus, instrumental and unforgettable guest features from Daniel Caesar and Giveon. Ghost is another great track with a unique chorus and production and it evokes so much emotion. All in all, for most fans this is probably a great album, but i think there was so much untapped potential here, though i concede that its much better than Changes.… Expand

    In comparison to Changes, this album shows that Justin has matured lyrically and also dealing with issues of the heart and the problems we’re facing in the world right now. If he continues in this manner, he could grow in his musical abilities and give us great albums in future.

    His lyrics are more relatable and mature. This is probably his best album. However, Justin adds some speeches from Martin Luther King, and one may start to wonder what those have to do with this. He adds a MLK speech then start singing about a woman. It makes no sense. It does not have the pop anthems found in Purpose such as ‘Sorry’ or ‘Love Yourself’. Perhaps this album is most lyrically mature, and Purpose has the BOPS.

    I would have wanted to believe that Justin would give us more pop-anthems with this album, sadly, he didn’t. Overall, Justice is a good album, not a great album.    … Expand

    Ao contrário do seu último álbum, Bieber possui uma ótima produção e uma linha tênue em sua melodia. O maior problema desse disco certamente são as músicas que te dão abertura para letras reflexivas, mas elas não existem.

    The disorganized, only sporadically strong “Justice,” though, feels like a slap on the wrist to “Changes,” or the version of Bieber it nurtured. Rather than settle for one groove, this album shuttles between several.

    A really long album without an actual good reason for it. It contains some glimpses of nice tunes but overall it's still a boring album where Bieber never really convinces you about the themes he's raising and their sincerity.

    It's okay. It's definitely better than Changes, this album's predecessor, but the use Martin Luther King makes this album stick out in a bad way. The attempt at activism is horrendous, and just makes it seem like he isn't even trying. It's just a very mediocre album. However, I will argue that there are some definite hightlights as well, such as Peaches, Holy, and As I am.

    An appreciated improvement from the egregious "changes" . This record sounds good at times and isn't overblown for the streaming era. Songs like ghost ,peaches and holy are fun songs that show off his improved vocal prowess and pop sensibilities. He's best when he's relaxed and not trying to force introspection he no longer is capable of ,at least musically.

    Justin Bieber's "Justice" was promoted as an album that would sum up the state of the world (especially the US), but it doesn't meet up those expectations. He mostly sings about love, something that literally nobody would give a crap about hearing.

Really makes you think what "Justice" this album serves; the best Justin could've done was to put a charity component into it, but nope. Every song follows a formula that has one purpose: make money, and that money presumably doesn't go to the wallets of non-profit organizations. The songs are mixed and compressed to the point where they are just noisy cubes that roll around and don't inspire anybody to do anything The album features samples from Martin Luther King, which again keeps the theme of "Justice" present. But the lyrics are not political whatsoever, which is disgustingly misleading and just plain pathetic. If you want to know what melodic white noise sounds like, then this is the album for you.

    Why give such a name to the album and come up with an explanation + insert the MLK speech (what was that at all?), If ALL songs are about love and a girl ....? Again, there is not a single song with a really deep meaning and meaning.

Adicionando instrumentos como piano e guitarra, Justin mostra que está melhorando em temas de composição mas ainda não sabe trabalhar bem com as palavras assim como não abandonou as batidas saturadas de seus ultimos albuns ("purpose" e "changes"). Da mesma forma que ele inicia o álbum com a lindissima "2 much" tocada em piano, ele segue com as batidas saturadas em "deserve you" e "somebody". Com letras pouco profundas e pouco conectadas, Justin demonstra que o caminho da evolução artística é árduo, e envolve coisas além de streaming e ritmos desenhados para o sucesso comercial, um verdadeiro sucesso comercial envolve composições que envolvem o público e inovação dentro de sua própria discografia, e não vemos isso nesse álbum da forma que esperavámos quando escutamos "holy" (com pelo menos dois instrumentos de fundo, bons vocais e uma bela letra), o álbum como um todo soa decepcionante dentro de sua proposta inicial (mais profunda e com menos sons parecidos com o de seus últimos albuns)

    Peaches was good, but when I tried listening to the rest of the album I couldn't. It just sounds so commercial and...cheap. Sounds like it's supposed to top charts and get money, nothing more. It was slightly soulless. We need something more timeless and beautiful. This just didn't give what I thought it would. Justin's on the right track with his music though. There's just something missing.

    It's slightly better than 'Changes', but much worse than 'Jornals'. Listen 'Ghost', 'Hold on', 'Lonely' and 'Loved by you', the rest is not worth paying attention to.

    Every time Bieber announces an album we always expect some evolution in his sounds, however, he always gives the same kind of music, it seems like discards of his previous albums.

    Really wanted to love this album but wasn’t amazed by Justice. The way the album was produced drowned out the lyrics and message Justin was trying to bring. All the songs sounded the same which sucks. Hold on is great though, this album would be great if it was acoustic

    2 Much: It started with a MLK excerpt and then it went on and on about love.. forgettable also. 0/10.

    Deserve You : Lacks the IT factor shoulda stayed in the drafts 2/10.

    As I Am ft Khalid : what a waste of KHALID nice lyrics but falls plain 2/10.

    Off My Face: Good lyrics and mediocre production 2/10.

    Holy ft Chance: good production, repetitive lyrics (this argument can be done positive in a catchier song) but this is clearly better than the past 4 songs now this record has 4 skips.5/10.

    Unstable ft Laroi:i finished it 10 minutes ago, what was it about, again Lacks the catchy factor 0/10.

    MLK interlude is a blatant move of disrespect, fake activism ; WHAT WAS THE REASON!

    Die for you FT dominic fike: I can see what these two tried doing...... it looks like he lost his touch i mean journals and believe were almost,no skip albums, now we have 8 full on skips 0/10.

    Hold On: finally some good **** great bass line , good lyrics he still obsessed with telling us how good his relationships is but 6/10.

    Somebody: he must go back to rnb, this wallows twenty one pilot **** he tryna do doesnt work for him
    i mean good rnb not the ringtone kind that started this pandemic. 3/10

    Ghost : if jon bellion couldnt save his ass....... i mean good message but so so forgettable. im so sorry 0/10

    Peaches : this is the gem of this album sadly it is the only one this is the hail mary of this mediocre and forgettable record and if this skip is the gem idk what to do next 4/10

    Love You Different : great beat 5/10

    Loved by you: forgettable great beat in those words 2/10

    Anynone hail mary and the better of the three centric singles: Holy , lonely and anyone probably cause of
    kid harpoon producing 7/10

    Lonely: not only do people love to hate on him but they love even more to hear how lonely this rich white famous man was during his peak of career. 2/10

    overall this record is FORGETTABLE, sadly the three first singles that jb put out were the hail mary of this overal flop of album, he needs to come up with something else cause music aint for him anymore, his feats and not solo songs are the better he should stick with terrorizing other artists songs like the inmense **** he pulled on billie's bad guy. even the amazing new artists like Giveon, Daniel, Dominic and Khalid couldnt give him a proper hit.

    It’s just not good. The lyricism is boring, the production is wack, it always feels like he has no emotional connection to the songs he’s singing like he used to years back. His vocals were at its peak when he was like 18/19 so there’s not much to discuss there. Scooter Braun just be putting the green light on all of his client’s latest projects.

Como profe de música puedo decir que cumple con el buen sonido los ritmos etc la producción en general no termina de convencerme ..sabemos que el es bueno canta bien..pero su voz en algunos temas como en concierto se nota esforza da un poco y su performance es buena pero muy exagerada...si bien en un conjunto de canciones que ya han salido hace mesesss con ninguna logró un. 1 como solía hacer ..eso dice mucho ..ya no es lo que era a no ser por los seguidores que siempre lo mantienen. Arriba. hoy otros cantanes están por encima de el fácilmente por ejemplo tve weekend de quien el pensó que su música apestaba.que irónico..sin embargo con un sólo tema de hace un año logra mantenerse siempre por encima de el .quiero decir que aunque los seguidores obvio son fanáticos siempre le van a dar esa relevancia, por lo que por ellos está allí y no por la gente en general ..es decir el streamno debería usarse .ya que comparan artistas de hoy con grandes artistas que ya no están .y que si vendían y comparar por ej a este cantante con Elvis es una falta de respeto absoluta .obvio que si lo comparan con alguien que tiene uno por streaming y que además está muerto siempre. El va a estar por encima ..pero de vender lp como antes nadie lo haría hoy...los fanáticos ponen cinco celulares y eso con la obsesión ya lo hacen un gran artista y así .... ....el disco no termina de cerrar sólo para los belieber y nadie mas… Expand

When it comes out, the struggle is to try to understand why he named it “Justice”. It’s an entire lack of concept: the name and the album has nothing to do with each other. The MLK Interlude is what makes me even more worried: what the f*** this kid have in mind? He inserts a MLK phrase in the middle of basic Pop songs. I think it’s gonna be a better era than Changes: his fans love basic bad Pop (but talk **** when it comes from female artists. They’re hyprocrits.) In my opinion, even Changes were better than this one because, besides being a compilation of elevator music and empty lyrics with the same beat, he made it clear it was an album about his love for his wife. In this one, he tries to bring a concept without working on it or evolving something he said he would bring. Didn’t expect different: he’s clearly not one of the smartest artist out there and we’ve been knew for a decade. But at least one thing is clear: he’s limited. There’s not so many things he can do out of the Pop field and do it good. I really hope it’s his last album. Otherwise, he’ll just keep shamming the rest of his discography such as “Journals” and his debut album, which were really good works. In conclusion: basic. No concept. He has a white savior complex that needs to be taken out from him. He doesn’t have a smart head over his shoulders. And he needs to stop making music so his music history you’ll be safe.… Expand

    The upshot is that Justice is one of Bieber's steadiest releases, among the easiest to play from start to finish. The only overdone aspect is the low self-esteem and unworthiness the lyrics either suggest or flatly express in almost every song.

    With 16 tracks in a wide variety of styles and moods, Bieber’s centerless sixth studio album is noisy and grab-baggy in a way that once was typical for him (and other major pop acts) yet now registers as shallow and unsatisfying.

    His voice has a palatable smoothness; he’s mastered push-and-pull dynamics, and he swings effortlessly from a placid chest voice to a zephyr of a falsetto. That litheness and control are on full display across Justice. Even when the songwriting is spiritless and the production rote—and it occasionally is, as on the confessional “Unstable” and the saccharine “Deserve You”—he still sings the hell out of it.
