Madison Beer has fully arrived as a pop singer-songwriter with her new album, Life Support, released on Feb. 26. The full-length demonstrates the pop singer-songwriter’s impressive range and vocal presence, both on lilting ballads like “Selfish” and “Everything Happens for a Reason” as well as sumptuous pop flare-ups like “Boys–t” and “Baby.”

Yet Life Support was far from a simple endeavor — the album is the product of years of hard work, as well as the people, settings and life experiences that have helped shape who she has become. In the first episode of ‘Growing Up,’ Madison Beer takes us through the things that have inspired her sense of determination, from childhood memorabilia to her major musical influences.
