A Meeting of Music Icons: Bieber and Wonder

Once a part of pop’s teenage heartthrobs, Justin Bieber’s career continues to grow and evolve, cementing his place as one of the most influential musicians of the 21st century.

From his rise on YouTube to becoming one of the biggest names in entertainment, rising above every obstacle, and blending R&B, pop, and electronic sounds into his music, he is now the owner of diverse hits like Sorry, Love Yourself, and Peaches. Now, after taking some time off to treat his health, fans are excited for his return to music.

Wonder, the child prodigy, got signed to Motown at 11. In his career, he has redefined soul, R&B, and funk with all-time classics Superstition, Isn’t She Lovely, and I Just Called To Say I Love You.

The impact that Wonder has had on many artists, including Bieber, is, without a doubt, one of the most influential aspects in the history of music.

Is there a potentially collaborative project on the way?

Neither artist confirmed any speculative collaborations, but fans are connecting the dots. Justin teased being in the studio recently, and in multiple interviews, Wonder has shown a willingness to take on more mentoring roles with younger artists.

Some speculate that this marks the dawn of a new era for Bieber — one that involves soul, funk, and going deeper with the lyrics.

What now?

As of now, it's still purely speculation, but the excitement is palpable. The viral tweet from Pop Crave has already amassed hundreds of thousands of views, and the phrase “please just drop the music” is quickly becoming a fan favorite.

It doesn’t matter whether this turns out to be a song, a mentorship, or just a casual call; the shift in energy is there. Fans are looking to scrutinize Bieber’s every move.

Until then, it's a waiting game – refreshing Pop Crave, refreshing Instagram, and chanting along:

“Please just drop the music.”
