On Monday (Oct. 12), Justin Bieber took to Instagram to reveal that his next single will arrive much sooner than fans expected. “Lonely,” with Benny Blanco, will arrive this Friday.
The photo shared with the announcement shows a young Bieber (complete with side-swished hair and his iconic purple hoodie), who is rumored to be played by actor Jacob Tremblay in a music video.
Blanco previously teamed up with Bieber for the hit “Love Yourself” from the pop star’s 2015 album Purpose. Both were Grammy-nominated.
“Lonely” will be the second single Bieber has released since this year’s Changes. Just last month, Bieber’s collaboration with Chance the Rapper, “Holy,” arrived and debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
