Justin Bieber's dad apparently wants to follow the teen star by entering the music world himself.
Insiders claim Bieber's father, 36-year-old Jeremy, wants to launch his own career - but as a rapper.
According to the Daily Star, Jeremy thinks Justin's contacts in the industry could help him live his dream and he also plans to use his experience of being in jail for his lyrics.
"He wants to help him sort his life out," a source said. "Justin is one of the biggest stars in the world with lots of cash and the best contacts in the business. If he can't make his dad a star then nobody can."
The insider also revealed that Usher could help him launch his rap career. "With Usher on board the world is his oyster and given how popular Justin is around the globe, his dad will surely ride his coat tails and cash in too."
"Justin credits Jeremy with giving him his musical genes and, despite their long separation, won't hear a word against his dad," they continued.
