He’s not a “Baby” anymore.
Justin Bieber rapped about being “high” in a puzzling Instagram video that he shared to his account on Monday.
“I fly like a fly guy/ I fly high like a bagpipe/ I go high like a bad guy,” Bieber, 30, sang while shirtless and carrying a bag of snacks.
The pop star was joined by a friend who was smoking cigarettes in the clip.
Bieber’s video sparked mix reactions from fans. Some praised his rap performance, and called on him to return to music, while others expressed concern for his wellbeing.
“Bieber is back 🔥,” one fan wrote.
“i’m so desperate for new music i’ll take anything at this point like this gold right now !!!!!!! GO BIEBS,” someone else said.
Meanwhile, one of the negative comments read, “Something is very off. This video disturbs me on so many levels. Wtf.”
“If anyone’s a true fan of Justin Bieber, you would know that there’s something wrong with him. He needs help,” a different fan wrote.
The Post has reached out to Bieber’s rep for comment.
Earlier this month, Bieber’s rep denied rumors that the singer is on drugs.
The rep told TMZ that the speculation about Bieber is “exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
The spokesperson added that the past year for Bieber — who welcomed his first child, son Jack, with wife Hailey Baldwin in Aug. 2024 — has been “very transformative for him.”
Bieber “ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him,” according to the rep.
The “One Time” crooner and his wife also sparked divorce rumors last month when Bieber randomly unfollowed Baldwin, 28, on Instagram.
He later claimed his account was hacked. “Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife,” he posted on his Instagram Story. “S–t is getting suss out here.”
Last summer, Baldwin made rare comments about the constant criticism of her relationship with Bieber.
“I used to try to act like it hurts less and less,” she explained to W Magazine in July. “I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less.”
