Justin Bieber’s Purpose tracklist is here people. Who needs a predictable press release when you have a millions-strong social media impact on Instagram and Twitter to roll out track titles, using cool graffiti murals on walls located all around the world?
Not Justin Bieber. Hot on the heels of confirming his duet with Halsey after the indie darling announced their new song, “The Feeling,” will appear on Purpose , the pop prince revealed the rest of the tracklist in a creative and surprising way — two qualities that are a feature of his album campaign.
The Biebs’ highly anticipated new album is his first full length since 2012’s Believe LP. No-one with even a passing interest in music and/or pop culture will be unaware of the worldwide No. 1 smash, “What Do You Mean?” , and the new Skrillex and Blood banger, “Sorry,” that is already the second highest streamed song on Spotify globally.
So, without further ado, here are the Purpose track titles.

Charlie Puth thrilled Bieber’s fans with a tweet teasing “Company” as something special. Puth actually did said the same before “Mean” came out and smashed records everywhere, so his endorsement bodes well for this song.
Puth enthused, “Company by Justin Bieber …just wait for it everyone. Insane.”

Online chatter reveals some fans are concerned as to why Drake’s feature hasn’t yet been revealed. Back in August, the Biebs said the rapper is on his album, so perhaps he wants to keep it as a final surprise.

Other fans expressed their contentment with the tracklist.

Given the Biebs’ well-documented love of graffiti, it’s great to see him supporting street art and street artists , each of whom has been credited for their work by Bieber. Hopefully, someone will profile these artists because the art is amazing.
“Find the murals in those cities,” Bieber wrote on his last Purpose -related Instagram for the day. “Thanks to all the artists who stepped up.”
So that’s it. The full Purpose tracklist has now been unveiled. For those who pre-order, they get the bonus remix of “What Do You Mean?” featuring La Ariana Grande. Look for the album on November 13. To pre-order it, click here for iTunes.
