Justin Bieber Covers Tupac & Tracy Chapman On BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge

Published: Thursday 1st Sep 2016 by Sam

With the ‘Purpose’ album, Justin Bieber made a credibility play that paid all the way off.

The set, which spurned hits such as ‘Sorry’ and ‘What Do Mean?’ saw the former teen singer complete his transition into an adult force.

Still, it seems the 22-year-old is still on the hunt for cool points. Case in point his cover choices on his BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge performance today.

Surprisingly, the Canadian crooner decided to try his hand at Tupac‘s ‘Thugz Mansion’ and Tracy Chapman‘s classic ‘Fast Car.’

How did he fare? Find out below…

Though not the car crash many expected, his voice didn’t suit either song.
