The teen star released the album's track list over the weekend, and he's managed to get some of the biggest names in hip-hop to guest on it.</P><P>While he had hit the studio with Kanye West, Yeezy didn't make the final cut, but Ludacris, Big Sean, Nicki Minaj and Drake did.

"He's a great guy and super-talented, and his melodies are crazy," Bieber told MTV News about working with the Canadian MC. "When we go into the studio, he'll go in the booth and he'll do some melodies and we'll write." Bieber also reportedly worked with <a href="/news/articles/1684654/justin-bieber-drake.jhtml">Taylor Swift on the album</a>, but it is unclear whether it was for a duet that didn't make the cut or a writing session. To get fans hyped for the release, Bieber performed at the <a href="/news/articles/1685460/justin-bieber-boyfriend-billboard-music-awards.jhtml"><i>Billboard</i> Music Awards</a> on Sunday night, where he showed off his growing abilities as a dancer. "This performance is going to be fun.

By Kara Warner<P><b>LAS VEGAS</b> — As was expected, <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1685460/justin-bieber-boyfriend-billboard-music-awards.jhtml">Justin Bieber's show-stopping performance of "Boyfriend"</a> at Sunday's (May 20) <i>Billboard</i> Music Awards brought out the squeals and the swag.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Justin Bieber Breaks Down Billboard Awards 'Boyfriend' Performance" id="vid:770729.id:1685461" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>When MTV News caught up with Bieber on the white carpet for the awards show, just before his big number, the teenage superstar said his expectations for the evening were relatively simple: He just wanted everyone to have fun and to be able to show off all the hard work he's been putting into his dance moves.</P><P>"This performance is going to be fun. I practiced a lot in the dance studio," Bieber said. "I've been working hard, and I can't wait to show the fans what I've been working so hard on."

At Billboard Music Awards, Jordin Sparks recalls paying tribute to the Bee Gees during her time on 'American Idol.'
By Kara Warner<P>The music industry lost yet another influential artist Sunday (May 20), with the <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1685455/bee-gees-robin-gibb-dead-died-62.jhtml">untimely death of Bee Gees' member Robin Gibb</a>.</P><P>The news was met with sadness and shock from the celeb attendees at Sunday's <i>Billboard</i> Music Awards. They were quick to express heartfelt sentiments to Gibb's family and friends, as well as weigh in on the huge impact the Bee Gees had on the music industry as a whole.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Celebrities React To Robin Gibb's Passing" id="vid:770720" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>"Oh no!" Jordin Sparks said in shock upon hearing the news. "I thought he was doing better. Barry Gibb [Robin's brother and fellow Bee Gee], when I was on <a href="/news/articles/1559121/idol-recap-melindas-worst-still-best.jhtml">'[American] Idol,' he was one of our mentors</a>, and it was so amazing to meet him. I actually discovered my love for Bee Gees music through that week, and 'Too Much Heaven' and 'Emotions' are two of my favorite songs, and 'Stayin' Alive,' of course. Classic. But it's so sad," she added. "I just can't [believe it]."</P><P>"I definitely listened to the Bee Gees," Justin Bieber told us. "I'm not too familiar with them, but it's definitely sad what happened. My heart goes out to him and his family."</P><P>"My first memory of the Bee Gees was the film 'Saturday Night Fever,' which is one of my favorites," recalled Max George of the Wanted. "I love the Bee Gees. They're obviously legends and heroes of ours and people we look up to. It's a really sad loss. Our thoughts go out to all of his family."</P><P>Chart-topper Carrie Underwood remembered discovering the group during her childhood. "My parents listened to the Bee Gees quite a bit when I was little, so I was definitely exposed to them at an early age. They just had a sound that was all their own, obviously, [it was] never duplicated," she said. "They were very influential on music in general, and it's very sad to hear about any loss. There have been a lot of legends lost this year, so it's always sad to see it happen, but they are paying a couple of tributes here [at the <i>Billboard</i> Music Awards], and I know that they'll be classy and respectful and allow us all to remember them."</P><P>Singer/songwriter and recent "Dancing With the Stars" castmember Gavin DeGraw spoke to the group's influence with their own music, as well as the hit songs they went on to write for other artists.</P><P>"Let's talk about the Bee Gees. That's an iconic group. Not just a great band, but a great group of songwriters," DeGraw said. "Even long after the Bee Gees' success on the pop charts, they were still writing songs for other people, huge hit songs. Their talent went far beyond their moment of normal pop success. It is a loss to the music industry and a loss of an iconic group. The beauty of this industry is that we do pay tribute and every artist coming up is a fan of a generation prior to it, so there's a real tradition element to it."</P><P><i>Please share your condolences for Gibb's family, friends and fans in the comments.</i></p>

By Gil Kaufman<P>Sunday night's (May 20) <i>Billboard</i> Music Awards were a bittersweet affair, balancing the promise of decades of entertainment from a new generation of record-smashing young artists like Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift with fond memories of a number of recently departed musical icons.</P><P>In a three-hour show heavy on performances, chart staples <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/lmfao/artist.jhtml">LMFAO</a> helped kicked the show off with a typically hyped performance of their inescapable party anthems that featured a cabbage-patching teddy bear and zebra and more animal prints than a Flintstones family reunion.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="2012 Billboard Awards Highlights" id="id:1685461" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/bieber_justin/artist.jhtml">Justin Bieber</a> was the night's first winner, taking the Top Social Artist award for his huge online presence. The singer swaggered up to the stage and, in an uncharacteristically emotional moment, said, "I just want to say how much of a blessing it's been ... the past three or four years, growing up in front of everybody. ... I want to thank all my fans, because the Internet is where I got my start, and all my fans have helped me get to this position."</P><P>Co-host Julie Bowen took a moment out of the program early on to pay tribute to late Bee Gees member <a href="/news/articles/1685459/robin-gibb-bee-gees-charts.jhtml">Robin Gibb</a>, who died earlier in the day Sunday after a long battle with cancer.

Swift, 22, dressed in a flowing red evening gown and ever gracious, thanked her legions of fans, saying, "I just love you so much, I'm just so humbled and honored by this."</P><P>As Miley Cyrus noted, you're only new to the game once, so it was fitting that red-hot rapper <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/wiz_khalifa/artist.jhtml">Wiz Khalifa</a> best the competition for the Top New Artist trophy. "I'm up here shakin', man," the rapper admitted as he thanked his whole crew and label family, as well as his "beautiful fiancée," <a href="/news/articles/1680245/wiz-khalifa-amber-rose-engaged.jhtml">Amber Rose</a>. "She's my world and she puts up with my crazy butt, too," he smiled, as Rose beamed from her seat in the audience.</P><P>Some other men got a bit of attention as well, with an absent Lil Wayne beating out Chris Brown, Drake, Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber for Male Artist of the Year.</P><P>Hot 100 Song of the Year was a tight race featuring smashes from Adele, Perry, Maroon 5 and Pitbull. But could it have gone to anyone but LMFAO for "Party Rock Anthem"? With six weeks atop the Hot 100, the uncle/nephew duo scored the third longest-running top 10 hit of all time. "This is a dream come true," said singer Redfoo. A short time later, Khalifa shouted out the <a href="/news/articles/1684552/adam-yauch-mca-remember-tribute-beastie-boys-dead.jhtml">Beastie Boys' MCA</a> before LMFAO were up on the stage again for the Top Duo or Group prize.</P><P>Brown got his chance a bit later with a win in the R&B Artist of the Year category, Foster the People took Top Rock Song for "Pumped Up Kicks," Coldplay were named Top Rock Artist, U2 Top Touring Act, Lady Gaga Top Dance Artist and an Icon Award for Stevie Wonder.
