Days after his #randomtwitterhour where he acknowledged Mariah Yeeter, the woman who claimed she had his child, Justin Bieber spoke with reporters about the song he wrote inspired by the situation.

According to the BBC, after a listening party in London Bieber discussed the inspiration behind Believe. He said he had written “songs like that girl – Mariah Yeater – who said she was going to have my baby. I wrote about that situation.”

Bieber added that he recorded 40 songs for the record and it’s difficult for him to choose a favorite. “Every song has a piece of me, it’s hard to pick. I wrote almost all of them or co-wrote them,” he said.

He then revealed that he collaborated with Drake, Ludacris, Taylor Swift and Kanye West for the album.

“It’s so cool to do different styles and step out of my comfort zone,” he added.

Despite countless rumors about a boy band collaboration with One Direction and The Wanted, Bieber put those claims to rest and said there were no plans to work with either of the bands. Though he won’t be writing with either group any time soon, fans will be happy to know his much anticipated music video for “Boyfriend” will be released next week.
