Bieber rose to fame when he was 13 years old following the success of his song ‘Baby’. The pop star disclosed in June that he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, which left half of his face paralyzed, forcing him to cancel his performances.

Fellow pop artist Justin Timberlake sold the rights to his songs, including hits such as ‘Cry Me A River’ and ‘Rock Your Body’, to Hipgnosis Song Management in May.
