Demi Lovato proudly declares herself Unbroken on her just-released album, saying the record, especially lead single "Skyscraper," is reflective of her need to be "honest about my journey" since leaving treatment earlier this year and heading back into the spotlight.

Since Lovato announced the album's release, the headlines have certainly shifted from the personal back to the professional as she launches this next major step in her career. The album is a mix of empowering ballads and flirty party tracks, a combination Lovato hopes will help her ease into that next phase.

"I think it's grown-up, but it's not too grown-up," Lovato told MTV News. "It's not tasteless. It's growing up with my fans. It's [like] I'm not a kid anymore, but I'm also not a full-grown woman either. So I'm in that in-between stage, trying to figure out where that is. So I'm figuring it out, just like my fans are."

In the past, Lovato's music touched more on rock than R&B. Thanks to production and writing credits from A-listers like Timbaland, Missy Elliott, Rock Mafia, Ryan Tedder and Toby Gad, Lovato is trying out a much more pop&B flavor that plays up her big voice, a shift she's excited for her fans to hear.

"This album is definitely more pop," she said. "It's definitely more R&B. It's not so pop/rock anymore. I grew up listening to R&B, [and] I guess my rock thing was kind of like a phase."

This change in genre isn't the end for Lovato's evolution as an artist by any means. "I like to experiment with my music," she said. "Someday, I joke around, but I'm actually pretty serious about coming out with a country album. I want to do everything. I love music and I love all types of music, and I love where this album went."
