Now, don't get me wrong, I've been known to sing along to a Justin Beiber song every once in a while, but this made me

Me neither. I guess it's just because it's Justin Bieber. Nothing he does is okay in the eyes of the internet.

I'm Just going to leave this here.
Biebes got booed. Justin Bieber performed twice during the show, first his new single “Take You” then again with Will. I. Am. on “#thatPOWER.” But when he got on stage to accept the fan-voted Milestone Award there were boos from the audience.
He told the crowd: “I’m 19 years old – I think I’m doing a pretty good job. It should really be about the music and the craft that I’m making. This is not a gimmick. I’m an artist, and I should be taken seriously. All this other bull should not be spoken of.”

That's what he's trying to do now. To be taken seriously and look like a tough guy. Has got into a lot of trouble lately and I don't see this being good for him.

Well he doesnt write the lines, doesnt make the beats, barely sings them. basically hes just a performer/posterboy for the shows/music videos

Producers make beats, is that something new? He knows how to sing (don't bother posting bad performances, every artist has them).
I'm not even a fanboy but we gotta give the dude some slack. He won the award fair and square.

He can probably sing, but most of his songs are heavily autotuned, so he is barely a singer. His songs are actually pretty nice, but thats cause of the beat, which he doesnt make, And has like 10 writers behind him to write pretty simple lines. I think it would have been fairer for Bruno Mars to win, if it had to be a pop artist. songs are better

My problem with him during that speech was the fact that if you are an "artist", you shouldn't feel the need to convince others of your artistic abilities, and by doing so, you just look like an ass.

His point is, if he doesn't make beats nor writes a lyrics, how is he an artist? I can't deny his singing. I mean, he's not a new Pavarotti, but he doesn't sound bad.
