Justin Bieber’s ‘Swag’: All 21 Tracks Ranked

Justin Bieber surprise released his seventh studio album, featuring raw songwriting and experimental R&B. Read our preliminary song rankings.

Save for his own backing vocals, which are undeniably JB, this track finds the singer questioning: “What would I do, if I didn’t love you?” And while the Latin-inspired riff and hand drums add a bit of intrigue, “Yukon” serves a similar purpose to “405,” both of which seem like real-time ruminations that often occupy Bieber’s mind. “We better stop before we say some s–t, we’ve been testing our patience,” he admits, before declaring, “Baby, I ain’t walking away.” This song functions like a refreshingly honest vow renewal, as Bieber recalls giving Hailey her ring and promising to change. Following a lead track like “All I Can Take,” on which Bieber’s vocals were a bit clouded by the production, “Daisies” arrives as a welcomed follow-up as his voice is much more the focal point, supported mostly by a crunchy, lo-fi guitar — signature to Swag.
