Justin Bieber Bares His “Lonely” Soul On Benny Blanco Collaboration

It’s clear that Justin Bieber is giving the raw and unfiltered version of himself on his Benny Blanco collaboration, “Lonely.” Bieber has been an international pop star since he was a young child, and he’s recently documented the struggles he’s faced due to the fame. “Lonely” is a stripped-down single where Bieber’s aching voice is accompanied by piano as he is bare-faced and vulnerable with his audience, lamenting about his thoughts regarding his solitude.

“He was real nervous. He was like, ‘Sh*t. Should I be putting this out into the world?’ Because he’s like, ‘People know me for this thing and it’s like I’ve never been this raw,’” Blanco said. “He’s raw on this song. This song brought us so much closer together. And it was just he’s really opening up on this and he’s super vulnerable.” Stream “Lonely” by Justin Bieber and Benny Blanco and drop your thoughts.

Quotable Lyrics

Everybody knows my past now
Like my house was always made of glass
And maybe that’s the price you pay
For the money and fame at an early age
And everybody saw me sick
And it felt like no one gave a sh*t
They criticized the things I did
As an idiot kid

One Yen unveils where alternative rock meets the search for something more with “Vesica Piscis (Open)”

One Yen‘s latest release, “Vesica Piscis (Open)” is an emotionally charged and provocative album of alternative rock that is as compelling as it is powerful. With driving rhythms, layered guitars, atmospheric textures, and soaring melodic vocals, the song captures the spirit of late ‘90s alt-rock while embracing the big sound of modern alt-rock.

Named after the ancient symbol created by the intersection of two circles, Vesica Piscis immediately positions itself as more than a typical rock anthem. It explores awakening, self-discovery, duality, and man’s eternal quest for meaning outside the material world. Instead of giving easy answers, the lyrics begin an ongoing dialogue about identity, consciousness, and transcendence.

Musically, the song keeps up a compelling sense of momentum throughout. The song is built around a powerful foundation of energetic instrumentation, with atmospheric layers providing enough space for reflection. That mix of power and nuance ensures that the ride is never so enthralling that it loses its emotional heft.
