Justin Bieber az Instagram-oldalán jelentette be, hogy egy időre visszavonul a rivaldafénytől. Az énekes azt írja, hogy látja, hogy a rajongói egy új albumot várnak, de egyelőre nem tudja megadni nekik azt. Felemlegette, hogy a legelőző turnéját úgy nyomta végig, hogy közben folyamatosan a lelki problémáival küszködött.
So I read a lot of messages saying you want an album .. I've toured my whole teenage life, and early 20s, I realized and as you guys probably saw I was unhappy last tour and I don't deserve that and you don't deserve that, you pay money to come and have a lively energetic fun light concert and I was unable emotionally to give you that near the end of the tour. I have been looking, seeking, trial and error as most of us do, I am now very focused on repairing some of the deep rooted issues that I have as most of us have, so that I don't fall apart, so that I can sustain my marriage and be the father I want to be. Music is very important to me but Nothing comes before my family and my health. I will come with a kick ass album ASAP, my swag is undeniable and my drive is indescribable his love is supernatural his grace is that reliable.... the top is where I reside period whether I make music or not the king said so. but I will come with a vengeance believe that.. (grammar and punctuation will be terrible pretend it's a text where u just don't care).

Bieber azt is hozzátette, hogy 15 éves kora óta turnézik, a húszas évei közepére már belefáradt a dologba. Azt viszont megígérte a rajongóinak, hogy egyszer majd visszatér a zenéléshez.
