Justin Bieber’s Believe To ‘Change’ The Pop Music Scene!

Justin Bieber going to “change the landscape” of pop music.
Mike points out the fact that Biebs is an 18 year old who skateboards with Lil’ Wayne.
Mike explains:
I think we’ve all known Justin since he was 13, and that’s not the kid I was in the studio with anymore. He listens to hip-hop and he’s a really cool kid. He’s not like a corny guy.
We’re still working more on the project and it sounds really incredible. I think people have been waiting [for] when he’s going to turn that corner, and the time is now.
Believe isn’t going to change just Bieber’s career, but all of pop music. He’s kind of bringing soul back, and rhythm and blues back and definitely hip-hop into his music. I know a lot of artists are going to have to go back to the drawing board.
We really hope so.
