Trailing his extremely emotional and candid MTV Video Music Award performance, Justin Bieber has opened up to the public once more in his latest video interview with France's Clique TV. The "What Do You Mean?" singer discussed an array of topics form his negative and reformed behavior, working with Kanye West, gun control issues and his top five favored rappers.
Bieber first announced in March that he, West and Rick Rubin would put their heads together to craft music for his follow-up album to 2012's Believe. "We did some stuff for the album. We did this one song... I don't know if it's going to make the album. But it is really cool, really New York vibe," Bieber explained. "Kanye's a talker. So you get him in a room and he starts talking and ranting, and I just sit and I listen. Because he's been through a lot of stuff and he's not just talking to talk, he obviously has something to say that he's feeling from his heart. So when I hear that, I like to just sit and listen because he's a really smart guy."
As the interview progressed, the "Where Are U Now" singer was questioned about Kanye West's impromptu decision to run for president in 2020 and what the Canadian pop star's first move would be if he ever had a run in the oval office. "I'd probably fix some of the gun laws. In Canada we don't really have any guns and there's no gun violence. That really solves it," Bieber said. "They think it's for protection and stuff but it always ends up in some bozo's hand."
As for Bieber's top five favorite rappers of all time, he spewed out some of the industries biggest named with Tupac, Mase, Nas, Biggie and Eminem with the latter taking the number one slot, Rolling Stone reports. The 21-year-old dropped a few lines from Mase's "Feels So Good" before adding, "Yeah, Mase was dope." When it came down to choosing sides in the Meek Mill vs. Drake saga, the pop singer remained neutral although he admitted that Drake was the better rapper of the two.
