My World 2.0 is the debut
studio album by Canadian singer
Justin Bieber, released on March 19, 2010, by
Island Records. It is considered the second half of a two-piece project, being supplemented by his debut
extended play My World (EP) (2009). After signing a recording contract in light of his growing popularity on
YouTube, Bieber worked with collaborators including his mentor
Usher, in addition to producers
Tricky Stewart,
The-Dream, and
Midi Mafia. The record follows in the vein of
My World, incorporating
pop and
R&B styles, and also experiments with
hip hop elements. Lyrically, it discusses teen romance and
coming of age situations.
