Miley Cyrus is exploring her hip-hop roots, yo!

The singer, whose punk rock pixie hair gets shorter and shorter, hit up the studio with rapper Meek Mill, who has a thing for divas, having contributed to Mariah Carey's "went nowhere" comeback single 'Triumphamt.'

Cyrus tweeted that she was in the studio getting her record on with Mill, and she also gave a shout out the other producers she is working with.

Having collaborated with EDM artist Borgore on 'Decisions,' Cyrus is more determined than ever to shed that onetime, long-ago, good girl Disney image of hers – and no, she won't throw tweet heat or shade at Taylor Swift in order to do it, even if an entertainment writer tried to make it seem so. Cyrus shut that nonsense down, quick.

With her short her, that all-leather, bondage-like ensemble she wore to the 'VH1 Divas' special, and the fact that she has teamed up with Mill, Cyrus continues to show us her edge.

She also celebrated her birthday last month by paying homage to rapper 2 Chainz and cavorting with, uh, exotic dancers. She goes right for the booty, in this shot!

We're starting to forget that Cyrus ever played Hannah Montana.
