Background
"2U" is the third collaborative single for Bieber in 2017 following "I'm the One" and "Despacito", both of which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and other national charts.[5][6]
A thirteen-second teaser was revealed by Victoria's Secret's models Elsa Hosk, Jasmine Tookes, Romee Strijd and Sara Sampaio.[7][8][9] The cover art was revealed by Guetta on 8 June 2017.[10] Guetta told MTV that the song was "just very romantic".[11]
