Justin Bieber exploded onto the music and pop culture scene when he was 14 and, just four years later, he's at the top of the charts and on top of the world.
He learned a lot growing up fast in the spotlight, and now that the teen sensation is legally an adult, he's taking a more "mature" approach to his work. The 18-year-old talked to Rollacoaster Magazine about what this next stage in his life has done for his music and what you can expect from him next.

Wearing a T-shirt with the word 'Mother' and jeans for the interview/photo shoot, Justin said, "I am growing up. I am now 18 and my fans are growing with me. I'm getting older and I want that to reflect in my album. It is just more mature and reflecting the age that I am."
But just because the Biebs has already reached superstardom at at young age doesn't mean he's accomplished everything he's wanted to do. Don't expect him to do anything but strive for more.
