I'm just glad she did away with her usual crowd pleasing cutesy songs and collection of sappy ballads.

But she didn't use the word mature, she basically just said the sound of the album will be different and described it as "uplifting and cool".
Everything she said was:

'I want to show a side of Koda Kumi that no one has ever seen before'. Her sound is more polished and cool. The woman who always sings about love has now sealed off sweet love songs (aside from Koishikute). She explains: "This album overturns the image of Koda Kumi that everyone has. This album required a lot of courage."

People just assumed mature.
She probably just meant less ballads, no cute songs and so on. A more aggressive sound I guess.
It seems she wants to go further in this direction though as she also said that the new album is probably a turning point for her.
