Justin Bieber has reiterated his support for Chris Brown.

A day after he was confirmed as a guest on Breezy's upcoming Indigo project, Bieber took Instagram to defend the singer's character and talent. Biebs illustrated his point with an image that compared Brown to the late artists Michael Jackson and 2Pac.

"Everyone wants to wait til people die to give them the credit they deserve," Bieber captioned the post. "I’m calling it now, when CB passes away after a long full life, you will miss what you had in front of you the whole time."

Bieber then alluded to Brown's violent history, suggesting the singer's art should not be dismissed because of "a mistake."

He continued: "The people who have overlooked this man's talent because of a mistake he made ... you need to reevaluate! Love you @chrisbrownofficial."
