The Canadian superstar uncovered he'd enrolled
Kanye West and Rick Rubin for the new project as he talked about his new music
in an Interview with USA Today.
"I'm finishing up the album now, working with
Kanye and Rick," said Bieber. "I'm not rushing it, I'll just wait
until it's totally done."
Kanye West has worked together with individual big
names including Rihanna and Big Sean.
Rick Rubin, in the mean time, has produced songs
for everybody from rappers like Eminem and Jay-Z to pop stars including Adele
and Lana Del Rey.
When people asked how the new album would sound
like Justin Bieber added, "I don't want to say 'it's different,' because
that's what everyone says. But it is different, it's a grown-up version of
Justin and I think people will be shocked."
Justin also said in USA Today's Interview that his
album was actually done, but he chose to scrap it and make some changes.
"My whole direction has changed," he
said. "What you are thinking about all the time is what you write, and now
that I'm thinking about more positive things, it completely changes my music.
"I had to re-do my whole new album. It was
done but it didn't match up to where I am now and where my head's
at," he explained. "I want to tell my story, but I also want to give
people hope. I lost hope for a while, I was in a dark place, but it's about
getting out of that rut. It's about knowing there's sunshine on the other
side."
