American pop star Ariana Grande is preparing to share her first new taste of solo music in three years. Yes, And? will land this Friday (12 January).
She made the announcement over Instagram overnight. Her latest teaser followed a string of posts she shared in December, including one on 28 December where she revealed that her much-anticipated seventh album was almost complete.
In a video of Grande crying and laughing in the studio, the 7 Rings singer said, “I’m so tired… But so happy and grateful. The two moods of the album.”
Another image Grande shared confirmed she was back in the studio with longtime collaborators Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh.
Variety reports that Yes, And? will act as a follow-up to Grande’s 2019 hit album and single, Thank U, Next.

Ariana Grande’s upcoming single follows her October 2020 album, Positions. That was the last solo work we heard from Grande, despite her remaining on the airwaves thanks to The Weeknd’s remixes of Save Your Tears and Die For You.
In addition to her remix work and recent studio updates, Grande has been busy working on Universal’s big-screen adaptation of the Broadway musical Wicked, in which she portrays Glinda The Good. The film is set to land in cinemas in late November 2024.
Last April, Grande took to social media and reflected on the “unhealthiest” period of her life, asking fans to “be gentle” when talking about her (or anybody else’s) body.
A few months later, in different Ariana Grande news, Billboard reported that Ariana Grande and Demi Lovato walked away from controversial music executive Scooter Braun’s management company, SB Projects, a short while after J Balvin did the same in May.
In December, Variety reported that Grande is now represented by Brandon Creed and his firm, Good World Management.
In 2019, The Music named Thank U, Next one of the top albums of 2019, with writer Hannah Story stating: “Over the top of skittering, trap-influenced beats, Grande talks about needing space and the way intimacy is performed, imitated or conjured out of thin air. It’s an empowered attempt to tear back her post-break-up narrative from the mass media and instead celebrate her friends and inner strength.”
