According to TMZ, the new pop-music bad boy Justin Bieber is looking to reinvent himself, this time as a hip hop artist. With that in mind, he is also looking for a home in Atlanta (aka “the dirty south”) which is a hip-hop mecca and is a place Bieber spends time with his hip hop pals like Diddy, T.I., and Jermaine Dupri. It seems the rumors of Bieber being deported are at the back burner and now the focus is on moving to Atlanta.

Atlanta isn’t the only place he’s been scouting for property. Reports have him looking at expansive horse ranch properties in Hidden Valley, California as a means of escaping annoying neighbors and other problems he has been dealing with in regards to his LA mansion.

Do you think Justin Bieber will make the move to the Peach state? And do you think it will be a good or bad thing for the area? It would certainly bring publicity to our southern metro.
