Following the massive success of his 2009 debut EP My World and the full-length My World 2.0 (released March 2010), Bieber was transitioning from a teen heartthrob with a high-pitched, innocent vocal style to an artist grappling with the pressures of sudden adulthood, touring, and industry expectations. This paper examines the corpus of songs recorded but not officially released by Bieber during this specific period. Using fan-compiled discographies, studio session leaks, and demo analyses, this paper argues that these unreleased tracks serve three crucial functions: they map Bieber’s artistic struggle for autonomy, document the early influence of his R&B and hip-hop preferences (notably his collaboration with artists like Sean Kingston and producers like Benny Blanco), and create a unique, participatory archival culture among fans.
