"Confident" is a song by Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber featuring American recording artist Chance The Rapper, from Bieber's second compilation Journals (2013). Written by Bieber in addition to Kenneth Coby, Maurice "Verse" Simmonds, Chancelor Bennett and produced by Soundz, "Confident" was released as a single on December 9, 2013, by Island Records, as the tenth and last song from a ten-week digital download campaign entitled Music Mondays, in which one new song was released every Monday night, held from October 7, 2013 to December 9, 2013.

"Confident" received positive feedback from music critics, who deemed it as a highlight from the album. Commercially it was a failure, debuting and peaking at number 41 and only staying on the chart for 1 week in the United States and while it reached the top forty in Canada, it only spent 2 weeks on the chart. Internationally, it peaked at numbers eight and one in Belgium and Denmark, respectively. The accompanying music video for "Confident" directed by Colin Tilley depicts the singer stalking his confident love interest until they share a kiss in its end. Chance The Rapper brought out Bieber at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival to perform "Confident" in 2014.

On October 3, 2013, Bieber announced that he would release one new song every Monday for ten weeks in a campaign entitled Music Mondays, leading up to the release of his Justin Bieber's Believe theatrical film, which will see a limited one-week release on Christmas Day 2013.
