NEW YORK: Pop star Justin Bieber will release his latest album in November, after a three-year gap in which he has been better known for his personal troubles than his tunes.

Tidal, the streaming service led by rap mogul Jay-Z, tweeted Wednesday that the new album — Bieber’s fourth — will be out on Nov. 13, confirming an earlier report on industry news site Hits Daily Double. The former teen idol has not revealed a release date but has said that the first song, “What Do You Mean?,” will come out on Aug. 28.

The Canadian has enlisted fellow stars in a countdown on social media for the release of the song.

In one snippet, English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran strums a verse on his acoustic guitar that may be from it: “Since you’re running out of time / What do you mean?“

Bieber, whose 66.3 million followers makes him the second most popular figure on Twitter after fellow pop singer Katy Perry, released his last album, “Believe,” in 2012.
