Miley Cyrus will have a whole new sound when she drops her new album she tells Billboard…”I want to start as a new artist. I consider my upcoming album my first, really.” But she plans to keep some of her country twang.”I’ve always wanted country-rock influences, but now I’m moving over to a more urban side. It’s not a hip-hop album, though-it’s a pop album. I’m not coming in trying to rap. It’s more like, ‘I don’t see any girls out there doing what Miguel and Frank Ocean are doing.'” “We’ve been calling it ‘count-step,’ because it’s like country, dubstep and a little trap. I love the Lumineers, but I also love French Montana, Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa and Dolly Parton. If you could put Dolly, some Adele and Juicy J together, you’d have that weird balance.”
Miley says people wanted her to become the next “white Nicki Minaj. A lot of people wanted to try to make me the white Nicki Minaj.That’s not what I’m trying to do. I love ‘hood’ music, but my talent is as a singer.” She tells the website she is hard worker and her ambitions are huge.”I never stop working, ever-I put my track list together this morning. I want my record to be the biggest record in the world, and I’ve given everything to get here, even down to friends and family and relationships-I’ve just put this music first. That’s been kind of a trip: It’s not like I’m losing who I am-I actually found out more about who I am by making this music. I’m going on a journey, and that’s more than a lot of 20-year-olds can say. And I’m still going to change so much. Because I’m not the same person I was six months ago-I’m not even the same person I was two weeks ago.”
