Ariana Grande is officially releasing a new album for the first time in four years. The Wicked star hasn’t released any new songs since taking on the role of Glinda. Right before 2023 wraps up, the 30-year-old powerhouse singer confirmed on social media that her seventh album is coming in 2024. On Wednesday (Dec 27), Grande shared a carousel of photos and videos on Instagram, giving “Arianators” a peek at her recent time in the studio. In one selfie of tears streaming down her face, the “God is a Woman” singer gives a big thumbs up with an audio mix screen and soundboard behind her. Another photo shows her triumphantly raising her arm while FaceTiming a friend. Sharing both photos separately on her Instagram Story, Grande wrote: “The two moods of the album.”

Closing out the announcement, Grande shared a black-and-white clip in which she is in hysterics, wrapped up in a blanket on a couch. Asked to comment on the album almost being wrapped up, Grande is seen wiping away tears and responds, “I’m so tired. But I’m so happy and grateful. I also feel like I weigh 3,000 tons” because “moving is impossible.” Grande captioned the post: “see you next year.” She also liked a comment confirming her new album will have fans “crying and shaking a–.”

The Grammy winner’s last album was 2020’s Positions, which featured tracks like “34+35,” “pov,” and “positions.” She has been featured on songs for Demi Lovato and The Weekend in 2021. She collaborated with The Weeknd again in 2023 for a remix of his song, “Die For You.” Kelly Clarkson and Grande collaborated on an original holiday song in 2022 called “Santa, Can’t You Hear Me.” In celebration of the tenth anniversary of her debut album Yours Truly, Grande released a re-recording in August.

These 7 Songs That Turn 10 In 2024 Have Not Aged Well

• All About That Bass - Megan Trainor

  This song may have put Trainor on the map, but let’s admit it — “All About That Bass” is not a good song. We love the meaning behind her lyrics, but the phrase, “I’m all about that bass, no treble,” sounds so incredibly corny. The song was even Grammy-nominated for song of the year…

• Bang Bang feat. Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj - Jessie J

  Jessie J was hot in 2014. Three years following her debut hit, “Price Tag,” the English singer-songwriter paired up with Grande and Minaj for this annoying song. From the horns to Jessie and Ariana’s voices, “Bang Bang” makes us want to “Bang Bang” ourselves unconscious so we don’t have to hear this song again.

• Problem feat. Iggy Azalea - Ariana Grande

  Two voices that don’t go well together: Ariana Grande and Iggy Azalea. Iggy’s southern accent that she puts on is giving Kermit the Frog vibes, while Grande’s high-pitched voice makes her sound like Miss Piggy in this 2014 throwback. The trumpets that play in the pop track were popular during this era in pop music for some reason, but listening back to it now, it’s just annoying.

• Shake It Off - Taylor Swift

  The video is so cringy, and the song is an earworm that is torturous to have stuck in your head all day. In 2014, Swift poked fun at “what people say” about her. The song received a few awards, but her attempt at comedy in the music video fell flat, with references to 2010 films Black Swan and Step Up 3D, Lady Gaga, Daft Punk, Skrillex, and Audrey Hepburn.

• #selfie - The Chainsmokers

  The term “selfie stick” did not become widely used until 2014 and the EDM duo took the concept of selfies to the mainstream with this dance track. Inspiration came from women who go to the club that the Chainsmokers saw regularly on their nights out in New York City. Hilariously, the woman throughout the song lists popular yet bad Instagram filters. Though the concept is hilarious, as a song, it has aged into the realm of tacky.

• Drunk in Love feat. Jay-Z - Beyoncé

  Beyoncé can sure belt out those high notes, but in “Drunk in Love,” her voice sounds whiny to the point of hurting our ears. With lyrics like, “Can’t keep your eyes off my fatty, daddy, I want you, na-na,” it’s so hard for us to wrap our heads around Jay-Z actually liking this song.

• Fancy feat. Charli XCX - Iggy Azalea

  Hearing a white woman from Australia rap about still being “in the Murda Bizness” is hilarious. Iggy’s 2014 track came from her debut studio album, The New Classic, featured British singer Charlie XCX, inspired by 1995’s cult classic Clueless in the music video.
