Ne-Yo Building a Mature Bieber!
Ne-Yo wants to help Justin Bieber grow up. They’ve been writing songs together and Ne-Yo says his goal is to help Justin develop a more mature sound. Ne-Yo tells Billboard.com: “I think he has the kind of talent that will carry. He just needs tangible records, the kind of records that will grow with him and allow his fans to grow with him. That’s why they came to me and that’s what I gave them… [The songs] are not so grown where it’s like, ‘He doesn’t know anything about that stuff,’ but it’s not bubblegum kiddie stuff, either.”
 
Ne-Yo has also been writing for Beyonce, Rihanna and country stars Carrie Underwood and Tim McGraw.  He’ll be going into the studio with Jennifer Hudson and Monica in the near future.
