One has to wonder if Canadian pop idol, Justin Bieber, is under the influence of controlled substances these days – or simply, a genius.
After several humorous attempts at terminating his singing career, Justin Bieber announced today the imminent availability of his next album, “Beliebe in Magic” – on Flippa.com.
“Justin is a smart young man, and after seeing Beyonce’s success in breaking the mold with her album’s digital release, he intends to raise the ante,” said music industry specialist, Harry Betaffonte.
“Using an online auction medium such as Flippa.com, where thousands of eyeballs converge to spend money, is the logical step for Justin Bieber, who signed an exclusive digital release contract with Flippa for the next three albums,” added Betaffonte.
Flippa will thus auction individual tracks of the upcoming Justin Bieber album among thousands of bidders, including various memorabilia of the young popstar: toothbrushes, used socks, textbooks from kindergarten etc.
After expanding into classifieds and precious metals, Flippa is once again setting a new standard in how online sales effectively span the entire spectrum of human interests.
More news soon.
