Justin Bieber is making a comeback with his seventh studio album, SWAG, as he catches fans off guard.

The album, which, based on a billboard in Times Square, New York, features 20 tracks, is expected to drop today, July 11, under Def Jam. As of this writing, the singer has yet to publicly confirm further details about the album, though an insider told The Hollywood Reporter that he spent time in Iceland in April as he wrapped up the project.
