'' as the first single from his then - upcoming album on July 28, 2015 on On Air With Ryan Seacrest. While he was there, his manager, Scooter Braun, made Seacrest a promotional sign for the single to hold and suggested he should put the photo on his Instagram account. To further promote the song 's release, Braun contacted several celebrities who started counting down the days until the release, among them Mariah Carey, Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande, Big Sean, Alanis Morissette, Meghan Trainor, Britney Spears, Hilary Duff, Little Mix, Chris Martin, Carly Rae Jepsen, and many others. During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, he described it as `` fun '', `` summery '', and `` amazing. '' Regarding its lyrics he commented : `` Well, girls are often just flip - floppy. They say something and they mean something else. So... what do you mean ? I do n't really know, that 's why I 'm asking. '' Later, on August 19, 2015, Bieber direct - messaged different lyrics from the song to 49 randomly selected Twitter followers. As explained by Billboard 's Jason Lipshutz, `` Each message included a clock animation with a different time that corresponded to the lyric 's placement in the song, and Beliebers spent Wednesday collectively piecing together the upcoming single 's lyrics in order. '' On August 5, 2015, Bieber presented the song to radio professionals at an iHeartMedia event. Release The song was released on August 28, 2015, and was serviced to contemporary hit radio on September 1, 2015. On October 16, 2015, it was revealed that a remix of the song featuring Ariana Grande would be made available if fans pre-ordered the album on iTunes. Composition `` What Do You Mean ? '' was written by Justin Bieber, Jason `` Poo Bear '' Boyd and Mason Levy. It was produced by MdL and co-produced by Bieber. It was initially speculated by the media that Skrillex produced `` What Do You Mean ? ''. However, a spokesperson for Bieber confirmed in an interview for Rolling Stone that the song was produced by Bieber, and MdL who had previously collaborated with the singer on his single `` Boyfriend '' ( 2012 ). Written in the key of A ♭ major, it has an upbeat tempo of 125 beats per minute. Bieber 's vocal range spans from the low - note of F3 to the high note of G5. It is a pop and tropical house song. During the song, Bieber uses a breathy vocal, which was considered `` smooth and soulful. '' The production contains flute instrumentation, looped vocal samples, piano chords, tropical synths, bass and `` slick beat '' elements with the sound of a clock ticking. Gil Kaufman of MTV News wrote that the track contains `` a slippery flute - like trill over a spare tick - tock island groove and a super chill vibe '', and is `` a kind of sequel '' to Skrillex and Diplo 's `` Where Are Ü Now '', which featured Bieber. Lyrically, `` What Do You Mean ? '' talks about looking for romantic clarity and not being able to figure out the opposite sex, with Bieber singing in the chorus : `` What do you mean / When you nod your head yes, but you wan na say no ? / What do you mean / When you do n't want me to move, but you tell me to go ?. '' Critical reception USA Today 's Carly Mallenbaum, who heard the song in early August, described it as a `` catchy dance track for the club ''. Similarly, a writer for The Daily Beast said, `` ( ' What Do You Mean ? ' is ) pretty damn catchy ; a slow - burner that, like that collab, swells into a Bieber banger ''. Gil Kaufman of MTV News also called it a `` banger '', explaining, `` the track is classic JB : seductive, earnest, pleading and just the right amount of sexy ''. Idolator 's Mike Wass praised the song 's `` instantly memorable chorus '', and added, `` Vocally, ( Bieber ) has never sounded better ''. Digital Spy 's Amy Davidson named it `` the perfect pop track as well as a skewed love song for millennials. '' Andrew Unterberger of Spin opined the song was `` really quite delightful ''. Sean Fitz - Gerald of New York magazine was also positive, noting that it `` sounds like what would happen if you took Steve Aoki 's alarm clock to a tropical beach resort. ( In other words, electro - catchy as hell. ) '' Jason Lipshutz of Billboard gave the song a four - out - of - five - stars rating and commented that it was `` positioned as ( Bieber 's ) huge comeback bid '', adding : `` ( The song ) synthesizes the positive components of ' Where Are U Now ' and presents something warmer and friendlier, but no less nuanced or impressive ''. NME 's reviewer named it `` the perfect pop confection : light as air and catchy as hell, allowing us to glimpse the vulnerability behind the megastar façade as Biebs grappled endearingly with the mysteries of womankind. '' Andy Kellman of AllMusic selected the song as one of the album 's highlights, citing the song and `` Sorry '' as tracks that `` showed him making a deeper connection with his material and that, yes, he was progressing from performer to artist. '' In a similar mode, Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly cited both songs and `` Where Are Ü Now '' for being `` stripped down for maximum aerodynamics, the vocals mentholated and sweetened with a brushstroke of bass here, a snake - charmer synth line there. '' Brad Nelson of Pitchfork praised the song and `` Sorry '' for being `` vivid tropical house tracks that sound like sunlight drifting down through palm fronds. Bieber 's voice often resembles a breath contorted inexpressively through notes ; here, he lets it weightlessly fall through textures. They are his best performances to date, allowing him to flex a rhythmic playfulness without communicating an iota of legible emotion. '' Sheldon Pearce of Complex called it `` the album 's spiritual centerpiece, '' while Janine Schaults of Consequence of Sound selected it as one of the album 's essential tracks. Josh Duboff of Vanity Fair considered it `` breezy and low - key, like `` Where Are Ü Now ? '' with 35 percent less propulsion. '' He also found it to be `` vaguely reminiscent of OMI 's omnipresent ' Cheerleader ', '' and that `` Bieber sounds more relaxed and confident than perhaps ever before on the track. '' Nick Messitte of Forbes agreed with the `` Cheerleader '' comparison, noting that it has `` the intersection of the mellow and the danceable, the four - on - the - floor with the smooth. '' Consequence of Sound wrote in a positive review `` Skrillex serves as producer of this slow burner, providing loops of tropical - flavored house beats to complement Bieber 's delicate croons.

Synopsis The video starts off with a man ( played by Leguizamo ) waiting at a stop sign in front of a motel in the rain. A dark hooded figure ( revealed to be Bieber ) walks to the man. It is realized that Bieber is in debt to him, and then gives him money and is promised to do one job : protect a girl, who is his love interest, as Bieber then walks away. As the song begins, it cuts to a neon - lighted hotel room, where the girl that was mentioned earlier is. Bieber knocks on the door, is let in, and they end up making love. As Bieber sings the second verse of the song, a group of masked men burst in. They tie, then kidnap the two. It then cuts to the pair tied up in an abandoned warehouse. They eventually use a lighter to burn the rope and escape. When the masked men discover they 've escaped they chase after them. They open a door, only to find themselves peering at the road below. With the men nearing, Bieber jumps out, then the girl. They land safely on an inflatable mat. We then see Leguizamo, who reveals himself as the leader of the masked men, as he 's greeted by Bieber. They 're now in an underground skating party, as Bieber sings the rest of the song. The video ends with Bieber standing alone in the dark, in the skatepark.
