Justin Bieber and his record labels are under a lot of criticism in San Francisco for using graffiti to market Bieber's new album, "Purpose." The stenciled graffiti appeared on sidewalks all over the city and haven't washed off with recent rains.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera told CNN affiliate KGO, "I don't think that's something the taxpayers should have to pay for." He's upset the singer's team apparently used permanent paint instead of a chalk-based substance.
For weeks, residents have been complaining to city officials and at least one sign was changed to read " Justin Bieber serves no Purpose," using the title of the album he released in November.
Graffiti appears to be a running theme in the promotion of Bieber's album with all the track titles released via photos of elaborate graffiti artwork on the star's Instagram page. The worldwide locations ranged from Paris to Washington.
