Justin Bieber’s latest album Purpose, has been described as “Skrillex’s best work” to date, despite being “god awful” and nearly impossible to listen to from start to finish in one sitting.
Purpose, which was released on 13 November this year, has reportedly sold over four million copies worldwide, with most buyers believed to have “given up on it” by the time they got to the fourth track, aptly named Sorry.
“It’s no coincidence that Bieber decided to arrange the tracks in an order that would see the one called Sorry appear fourth,” claimed music expert Julian Earls. “By the time you get half way through the track you’ve been listening to the album for ten minutes and, for most people, this will be the cut off point where they think ‘this is shit’ and turn it off.”
“Bieber knew, or was advised, that this would happen,” continued Earls. “It’s a preemptive apology and it’s an excellent addition to the album. Actually it’s probably the only good thing about the album but it’s still a nice touch from Bieber, it shows that he’s mentally, if not musically, maturing.”
Despite the negative feedback on the album critics the world over are describing Purpose as Skrillex’s best production work ever.
Famed New York Times music critic Alex Wolfe spoke to Wunderground, “Well I only listened to the first four tracks but that was more than enough to tell that this is Skrillex’s finest ever work.”
“Basically, it doesn’t sound like a gang of banshees and howling werewolves raping a cat, like the rest of Skillex’s work, or feature Diplo so it’s already head and shoulders above anything else Sonny has ever put his name to.”
