Justin Bieber Releases Gospel-Inspired EP ‘Freedom.’

Justin Bieber surprises fans with his first Gospel EP ‘Freedom.’ and we have all the best reactions!

Justin Bieber is back with even more music! Just when we thought 2021 couldn’t get any better after Bieber released “Justice” and the deluxe version, “Justice (Triple Chucks Deluxe)”, Bieber surprises us with his first Gospel EP! “Freedom” marks the third project Bieber’s release in the span of two weeks. On Easter Sunday, the popstar took to his social media accounts to share the news. The surprise came in the form of a screenshot of his iPhone notes that said, “Freedom.” The screenshotted image doubled as the cover of the EP.

Faith and spirituality have always been prevalent in Bieber’s life. In the past few years, he’s opened up about his journey through various Instagram posts, sharing inspirational quotes as well as his own thoughts on faith and humanity. In January, Bieber made an Instagram post explaining how his love and belief in God and Jesus did not make him a “religious man.” He wanted to clarify to his followers that while many may mistake him for being religious, he is in fact, not.

Bieber has mentioned—in various interviews, social media posts as well as in his docuseries Seasons—how faith has helped him realize his worth, guiding him out of some of his darkest moments. He touches upon some of these moments in his new Gospel-inspired EP, “Freedom”. The six-track EP includes features from Tori Kelly, Pink Sweats, BEAM, Brandom Love, Chandler Moore, Judah Smith, and Lauren Walters. The surprise release gained lots of praise from his Beliebers. Here are some of their reactions!
