Coming off of the whirlwind success of "Baby," Bieber released the Christmas track "Under The Mistletoe" in 2011 to much fanfare.

Bieber Becomes First Artist To Nab No. 1 Spot On Billboard Hot 100 In Back-To-Back Weeks
In 2017, Bieber jumped on the latin infused track "Despacito — Remix" alongside Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. The song, which became a smash hit, was the first time a tune sung primarily in Spanish reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. in over 20 years.
The 3 minute and 48 second song also received a diamond certification from the RIAA, eventually going on to beat "Baby" as the highest-certified single of all-time in the U.S.
Bieber made history once again when "I'm the One" — his collab with DJ Khaled — hit the top of the charts around the same time. It made him the first artist to ever nab the No. 1 spot in back-to-back weeks.

In 2019, Bieber tried his hand in the fashion world, as he collaborated with former stylist Ryan Good and designer Gianpiero D'Alessandro on the brand Drew House.
