WATCH: J’Something strums hearts with soulful cover of Justin Bieber’s ‘Yukon’

South African singer and Mi Casa frontman J’Something has once again reminded fans of his deep musical sensitivity and vocal mastery - this time with a heartfelt acoustic cover of Justin Bieber’s track “Yukon”. 

In a video shared on Instagram, J’Something can be seen strumming his guitar and bringing a warm, soulful twist to the original.

Sitting in what appears to be a home studio or relaxed setting, he lets the music do the talking, his voice pouring emotion into every note.

He captioned the video: “Yukon by @lilbieber. Connecting with the whole album. Love and light.”

The performance struck a chord with fans immediately, drawing admiration and emotional responses in the comments. 

One user wrote, “Your tone is so special and this is so good.” Another praised both Bieber and J’Something, saying, “Amazing album and beautiful rendition.”

A third fan gushed, “I thought I couldn't love this song any more than I already do!” while another added, “Justin Bieber was standing on business with this album. Beautiful cover, J’Something.”

“Yukon” stands out as one of the highlight tracks from Bieber’s latest album, “SWAG”. Blending moody trap beats with introspective lyrics, the song feels made for reinterpretation. 

Earlier this month, Bieber unveiled “SWAG” - his long-anticipated seventh studio album - without releasing any singles beforehand.

It’s his first full-length project since “Justice” in 2021, following a hiatus shaped by health challenges, media scrutiny and deep personal growth.

The album debuted at No  2 on the Billboard 200, earning strong commercial success. To mark the occasion, Bieber recently hosted a star-studded release party at Bird Street Club in West Hollywood, joined by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Kid Laroi and his wife Hailey, who played a key role in the album’s rollout and branding.

Adding to the buzz, SA’s own global pop star Tyla was recently spotted vibing to “Yukon” in a casual video clip, sparking playful suggestions online for a possible Bieber-Tyla collaboration.

Though she hasn’t responded to the buzz, fans remain hopeful that a musical meeting between the two might one day become a reality. 

Whether you’re a fan of Bieber, J’Something, or simply good music that stirs the soul, this rendition is worth a listen - and a reminder that great music continues to inspire across borders and genres.
