Justin Bieber is determined to make his comeback album, "Purpose," a hit as the singer released 13 new music videos for each track of his album on Saturday, Nov. 14, one day after the debut of his much-awaited album.
However, only two of the videos feature the 21-year-old. Bieber can be seen in the video for "Mark My Words" and again in "Purpose," while the other videos feature different modern dance groups.
"Mark My Words" show Bieber's struggles with the dark side of fame as he works on his new album. In a voiceover at the start of the video, Bieber says that he could feel the people's energy, and he also mentions that there are times that he doesn't really care if people liked him or not.
There is footage of Bieber shoving a photographer away as he tries to get in a car, and the singer can be heard saying that things started getting bad "because I got so involved in me, me, me."
The "Baby" singer is seen wiping away tears and is also heard saying that sometimes, he doesn't want to do this anymore because of the constant scrutiny from the media.
But the video also shows his road to redemption as Bieber says in the video that though he feels as if he has lost his purpose for a while, he has found it again and that he wants to bring that same hope to people.
"I just want people to see that there is hope and there is a light at the end of the tunnel," he says in the video. "And know that hey, if Justin did it, then I can do it."
After his voiceover and the initial footage on the video, Bieber is seen singing on top of a gold piano in the middle of the desert. In the video for "Purpose," he is again seen in the desert but this time, he is accompanied by five female dancers who disappear after he takes off his jacket, and the singer is seen walking alone in the desert.
Many of his fans speculate that "Purpose" is a song about God and Bieber's renewed faith. The singer has been very outspoken about his belief, and in an interview with Complex magazine, Bieber talked about being a Christian and how his faith changed him.
"At this point, my faith has gotten me to where I am," he said. "My faith has brought me to a whole other level."
"I'm at a point where I'm not going to hold this in," Bieber said about talking about his faith. "I personally love Jesus and that was my salvation. I want to share what I'm going through and what I'm feeling and I think it shouldn't be ostracized."
