By Jocelyn Vena Justin Bieber performs live for MTV.com Photo: MTV Justin Bieber ‘s new album My World 2.0 is out on Tuesday (March 23), and he sat down for an exclusive acoustic performance for MTV.com where he played several new tracks as well as a few fan favorites. Bieber not only displayed his vocal abilities, but he also rapped and played guitar. During a performance of “One Less Lonely Girl” off his debut album My World, Bieber played acoustic guitar while belting out the track. For his newer songs like “Never Let You Go” and the Motown-inspired track “U Smile,” Bieber chose to go guitar-less and really showcase his voice. Before his performance of “Baby” he told the intimate crowd, “I don’t know if you guys know this song — it’s called ‘Baby’ and it’s dedicated to Nicole in Minnesota,” before singing the song and then rapping the part usually rapped by Ludacris. He also dedicated the slower track “That Should Be Me” to Alexa in Knoxville, Tennessee. About his new album, Bieber has said it’s a fun record and seemed excited by his producers on the tracks, all of which he helped co-write. “It’s gonna be a lot of fun, the album,” he told MTV News . “I co-wrote everything on the album, and I got to work with a lot of cool producers. I got to work with The-Dream, I worked with … a lot of cool people, so it was a lot of fun.” His favorite song on the album is “Up,” and he’s also partial to second single “U Smile.” “I worked with [Dan] August [Rigo]. I got him. He’s a really good writer,” Bieber said of his friend and collaborator. “The song is amazing. We really love the song, so we decided to cut it. It’s really amazing.” Are you excited to see Bieber unplugged? How would you react if Justin dedicated a song to you? Sound off in the comments!
