Justin Bieber got comeback advice from Kanye West.
The two became close when Justin asked for his advice on new album 'Purpose' and Justin was impressed by how much the rapper cared.
He told NME magazine: "Out of anyone in the industry who is creative and I see eye to eye with, he really gets me. His advice is always just, 'make music that's so good people can't hate on it'. I didn't wanna bore him or waste his time. So I was like, 'Can I play you these songs?' and he was like, 'I wanna hear everything.' To hear him say that, it stuck with me. It just showed that he cared."
However, Justin previously revealed that a planned collaboration between him and Kanye did not work out.
He said: "Kanye was a part of the process, but doesn't have any records on the album. The Kanye song I did, we never finished it. It just was kind of in a different direction.
"I mean opinions of creativity are just opinions. At the end of the day, sometimes their opinion's not going to match up with my opinion. I get their opinion just to see, but sometimes it doesn't."

Brian May thinks signing up to headline the Isle of Wight Festival 2016 will "open doors" for Queen and Adam Lambert.
The 68-year-old guitarist will close the event with his group on June 12 next year and admits that whilst they have never done a festival together before, they are ready to put on a "great show".
Speaking at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour Awards, which he attended with his wife Anita Dobson, he told BANG Showbiz: "I'm so excited to be playing it. The Isle of Wight festival to us is of great resonance because of who played there - it's The Who, it's Jimi Hendrix, it's Bob Dylan. To be part of that is great, to be asked is fantastic and we just need to make sure we put on a great show.
"We've been asked to play a lot of festivals and we haven't done it, I guess because we've always wanted control over what we do. But maybe this has opened the door."
However, Brian is a little worried how the band will cram all of their hits into the set.
He added: "The problem with Isle of Wight is how do we get all the hits in. We shall see. It's a very exciting prospect for us because we've never done a festival before."

Queen were named 'living legends' at the Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards.
The 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hitmaker's were honoured with the award tonight (11.11.15) at the star-studded ceremony at The Roundhouse in Camden, London.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz on the red carpet, Brian May said: "These accolades still mean a lot; that people care enough to vote for us to win after all these years, it's incredible."
Other winners on the night included AC/DC, who were crowned Band Of The Year, whilst Led Zeppelin was handed Reissue Of The Year.
Jimmy Page shared: "I'm getting rewarded tonight for three years of work. It's taken that amount because the releases were in four steps. I wanted to do the reissues because I knew I had in my archive old gems of material that spanned the whole of Led Zeppelin's career and I really wanted to put out a companion disc to each of the original albums, in effect it doubles up the amount of material that's out there."
Album Of The Year went to Iron Maiden's 'The Book Of Souls' whilst Europe were given the Comeback Award.

Rick Wakeman will be joined by Alice Cooper next year to perform his 1975 LP 'The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table'.
The third studio album from the keyboard player - based on the legend of England's medieval monarch King Arthur - will be recreated live and in full with the help of the 'Poison' rocker, when the pair headline the first ever Stone Free Festival at The O2 in London in June 2016.
And the 66-year-old musician is delighted he's getting the opportunity to perform the concept album again.
He said: "After the success of the 'Journey To The Centre Of The Earth' shows last year, I'm over the moon to have the opportunity to perform 'King Arthur' for the first time since 1975 with an orchestra and choir. It's going to be wonderful."
The iconic LP contained prog rock classics such as 'Arthur' and 'The Last Battle', which is over nine minutes long, and was written after Rick survived three heart attacks at the age of 25.
Alice, 67, is thrilled to be joining his old pal on stage.
The singer said: "Coming to the UK is always like coming home for us, fans in the UK are always high energy, always there. Headlining the very first Stone Free Festival at London's The O2 in June next year is an example of why we feel so welcome. It will be my only performance in the UK next year, so that makes it even more special. And as always with my show you can expect the unexpected!"
Day and Weekend and Rock Royalty tickets for Stone Free Festival will be on general sale at Stonefreefestival.com on November 20.

Justin Bieber has announced he is going on a world tour.
The 21-year-old pop sensation revealed on Wednesday (11.11.15) he will sing all over the globe next year in support of his new album 'Purpose' and he will kick off proceedings on March 9, 2016 with tickets going on sale next week.
Bieber announced his tour during an appearance on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show', saying: "I'm actually going on tour. This was the only thing I had to remember, and I don't remember it.
"You can go to my website. What am I doing? I'm here to promote an album and a tour."
The 21-year-old singer has already released three tracks from the album - set for release on this Friday (13.11.15) - 'What Do You Mean', 'Sorry' and 'Mark My Words' with the latter two songs dealing with his relationship with ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez.
He revealed: "There's a lot of stuff that reminds me of her. In relationships, you see something on TV and you're like remember when we used to watch this."
If Bieber's last trip around the planet is anything to go by, the 'Promise World Tour' is set to be a lucrative venture for him.
The musician's 'Believe Tour' kicked off in 2012, had seven legs, spanned 15 months and featured over 150 concerts dates, and banked a reputed $209.2 million.

Queen and Adam Lambert will headline the Isle of Wight Festival 2016.
The group will close the annual event at Seaclose Park on Sunday June 12 in what will be their first-ever festival appearance and only UK gig next year, it was confirmed yesterday (10.11.15).
Guitarist Brian May said: "I think Queen at The Isle of Wight Festival is a date that was long overdue. How incredible to take on this challenge at this point in our lives. With an injection of new blood in the shape of the incredible Adam Lambert, Queen will be ready to tear it up on this legendary stage in 2016. Freddie would have loved it. Can't wait."
Drummer Roger Taylor said: "When I think of The Isle of Wight Festival I think of Hendrix, Dylan and The Who. What immortal company to be in.
"Queen are thrilled to be there and can promise a special night."
And organiser John Giddings says he is "honoured" to be welcoming the band to the 15th anniversary of the festival.
He said: "It's an honour for us to have Queen + Adam Lambert at our festival. It's the perfect way for us to celebrate our 15th anniversary. Queen's music appeals to people of all generations and it's hard to think of another band with such a famous collection of songs. It's going to be an incredible moment for The Isle of Wight Festival when they share these songs with us."

Aerosmith feel "abandoned" by Steven Tyler.
The 'Crazy' hitmakers had been expected to go on tour next year, but guitarist Brad Whitford has confirmed the plans are now on ice because the frontman "doesn't want to" go on the road as he is busy with his solo career.
He told Billboard: "Steven doesn't want to do it. It's unfortunate.
"We kind of feel a little bit abandoned by him. I guess he seems to think his solo career is going to go great guns, and he doesn't seem to realise that - in my opinion - his fans around the globe want to see him in the context of Aerosmith and don't really care for whatever he thinks he's gonna do.
"I don't know if he gets that but, hey, that's what he wants to do. I can't put a gun to his head. It's just pretty disappointing."
Brad has been working on his own new album with Ted Nugent singer/guitarist Derek St. Holmes, and thinks the record will be well-received by Aerosmith fans.
He said: "It's a classic rock album -- modern classic rock. I mean, that's what we do. We're all rockers, and we're not gonna try and do anything else but what we know and what we love.
"I think a lot of Aerosmith fans are really going to enjoy this record because all I ever hear is, 'When you gonna do another 'Toys'? When you gonna do another 'Rocks'?'
"That's what this album is. It's very straight-ahead, stripped-down classic rock."

Chris Jericho plans to get a selfie with Brian May at the Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards on Wednesday night (11.11.15).
The frontman of Fozzy and WWE wrestler is hosting the awards ceremony sponsored by Classic Rock magazine and says he is going to use his host status as an "icebreaker" to speak with the stars attending, including Queen guitarist Brian May and Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page.
Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz ahead of the awards, he said: "It's a really great icebreaker and I plan to have my camera ready for those guys. Especially Brian May and Jimmy Page if I can. It will be great to at least say hi to those guys because for me I have always been more of a Queen guy than a Led Zeppelin guy.
The 45-year-old is a massive Queen fan and recalled holding onto a page of Kerrang! magazine, from when asked the 'We Will Rock You' hitmaker a question.
He gushed: "Brian May is a number one target if you will if I get a chance to take a picture with. Kerrang! had an ask the stars whatever it is and it was ask Brian May a question and I phoned in because I wanted to ask a question. That was cool and I actually took that page out of Kerrang! and kept it."
The Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards will be held at London's Roundhouse on 11 November.

Azealia Banks is being investigated for criminal battery after allegedly assaulting a nightclub security guard.
TMZ has obtained video of Azealia and some friends at Break Room 86 in Los Angeles late last month, where they were asked to leave after being "unruly".
On their way out the rapper allegedly tried to pull the fire alarm and a security guard grabbed her.
After her pals pulled him off her she can be seen on the video jumping on him and hitting him repeatedly.
This comes just days after the controversial rapper cancelled her upcoming concert dates.
She tweeted: "I'm very busy at work. Your coins will be refunded and I will be back in January."
Meanwhile, in September Banks was caught on video branding a flight attendant a "f***ing f****t" and defended herself on Twitter, insisting she isn't homophobic and alleging she would have been treated differently if she was white.
She wrote: "I am bisexual. my brother is trans. My employees are all gay men. . Nothing else to say.
"Cause yall KNOW, that they would've politely handed a white woman her bags and a spritzer. #whatever (sic)"
