In this episode of The Track Record, we sit down with Tia Malhotra to unpack what it really means to grow up alongside Justin Bieber, from bubblegum pop to public scandal and some of the most streamed choruses of our lives.
We trace his journey from Baby to his latest album, SWAG, exploring how vulnerability, faith, and love have shaped his music and his public image. We talk parasocial protection, fandom misogyny, and the strange way fame blurs the personal and professional until they feel inseparable.
Where does Bieber stand now that he is free from Scooter Braun’s management? How do we balance valid critique with empathy for an artist who has lived entirely under a microscope? And what keeps fans like Tia fiercely protective of him even after all these years?
