It was actually written by five people: Justin Bieber, Ashley Boyd, Jason Boyd, Sasha Sirota, and Daniel Hackett. That\u2019s how you know it\u2019s fantastic; If you can figure out who any of those people are, let them know they deserve a Grammy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amazing thing about this song is that its in-depth metaphors cannot be understood by just listening to the song. The haters don\u2019t take the time to truly grasp the song\u2019s real meaning, and because of that, they cannot truly understand his genius. The song is really a tribute to Bieber\u2019s wife and sophisticated commentary on America\u2019s struggle with overeating food, as you can see from the music video because in the video is Bieber eating food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason people were attacking Bieber was for his promotion of the song. He and his team clearly wanted the song to reach number 1 on the charts, which it completely deserves, so they did a lot to advertise the song. Justin created a TikTok account which currently only has 10 videos, 9 of which are him lip-syncing to Yummy. He also created a #yummy on every social media, including TikTok, Youtube, and Instagram. On Justin\u2019s Youtube channel, he posted the Yummy music video, a lyric video, an animated video, and a fan reaction compilation. The biggest criticism Justin received was for reposting a fan\u2019s post about how to get his brilliant song to number one. The post talked about listening and streaming his song on every platform, downloading a VPN to listen to it outside of the US, and keeping the song on repeat as you sleep, which is clearly a lot of work but it\u2019s completely worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another genius idea that Justin had to promote his masterpiece was to post pictures of babies on Instagram with the caption \u201c#yummy\u201d for about two weeks before the release of the song. Many people were too quick to criticize Justin because again they clearly didn\u2019t understand Justin\u2019s true meaning. The babies were meant to symbolize innocence, something that was stolen from Justin at a young age with his sudden stardom from his first hit Baby. It all ties together and that is the brilliance of Yummy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To understand the genius of Justin Bieber\u2019s new single, Yummy, looks no further than his amazing lyrics: \u201cYeah, you got that yummy-yum, that yummy-yum, that yummy-yummy, yeah, you got that yummy-yum.\u201d Clearly the song is a beautiful tribute to his wife, Hailey Bieber, with the \u201cyummy yum\u201d symbolizing her kindness and affection for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":2681,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-april-fools-edition"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/JB.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2680"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2680\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2713,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2680\/revisions\/2713"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/theogony\/2019-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
