Ariana Grande recently teased us with the completion of her highly anticipated seventh studio album and just dropped a bombshell announcement. Brace yourselves because the first single from the album is making its grand entrance this Friday!
Get ready to groove to the catchy tunes of “yes, and?,” the playful follow-up to Ariana’s 2019 semi-autobiographical hit, “Thank U, Next.” We’ve been patiently waiting for new music from Ariana, and our prayers seem to have been answered!
While Ariana has blessed us with some unforgettable collaborations in the past, like her killer remixes of The Weeknd’s “Save Your Tears” and “Die for You,” it’s been quite a minute since she released something under her own name. Her last album, “Positions,” dropped back in October 2020, and we’ve been craving more ever since!
But fear not, Arianators, because the queen herself has been hard at work. Not only is she gearing up for Universal’s big-screen adaptation of the legendary Broadway musical “Wicked” (set to hit theaters in November), but she’s also been making major moves behind the scenes. Ariana recently bid farewell to her longtime manager Scooter Braun, and is now being represented by the incredible Brandon Creed (who also handles Demi Lovato, Troye Sivan, Charli XCX, Mark Ronson, and more).
If that wasn’t exciting enough, Ariana has been teasing us with tantalizing glimpses into the making of album number seven. Through mysterious Instagram posts, she’s given us a peek into her studio sessions with her trusted collaborators Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh. Though we’re dying to hear snippets of her angelic voice, Ariana decided to keep us on our toes this time. But fear not, the wait is almost over!
Mark your calendars because Ariana confirmed that the album is dropping this year. And with all the tagged mentions of video director Christian Breslauer and her talented dancers, we have a gut feeling that it might be sooner than we think! The excitement is real, folks.
