Arianators, here's the news you've all been waiting for: Ariana Grande's second album is coming your way on August 25! Finally!
Fans of the 21-year-old pop star have been anticipating her sophomore studio effort since she was first reported to have started working on her upcoming album. The "Problem" singer had occasionally tweeted about her musical progress on Twitter, which only did nothing but build anticipation for her next batch of sonic surprises.
As such, it's not unusual that Ari had chosen to break this good news via Twitter. "My new album My Everything now available for preorder @ https://arianagrande.com + exclusive access to my @iheartradio concert stream & more," one of her Twitter posts read.
"Fans who pre-order' 'My Everything' through Grande's website, arianagrande.com, will get exclusive access to her performance at the iHeartRadio Ultimate Pool Party in Miami Beach, where she recently performed songs from the new album," Billboard reiterated.
"I wanted to introduce the music to my fans in an intimate, exciting way, and so they'll be seeing me perform it live before it's even out," the songstress was quoted by the music news source as saying. She also revealed that "Big Mistake," a product of her collaboration with Big Sean, is one of her favorites in her soon-to-be-released album.
Aside from these updates, Ariana also teased a snippet of her upcoming music video for her next single, "Break Free," which is produced by Zedd. The said single will be premiered on July 2.
"Grande says the video was inspired by classic films like 'Star Wars' and 'Barbarella,'" Billboard noted. Ari herself described the video as "throwback campy." Arianators would understand what she's talking about - she has been teasing photos of the video on her Instagram in the run up to its premiere.
In addition, she had revealed to Ryan Seacrest that she didn't expect "Problem" to be such a big hit.
"I had no idea 'Problem' was even going to be on the album until I heard the final mix of the song. I forgot about it for a little and I didn't hear it until it was done and mastered and it was like a different moment. I was like, 'Oh! Maybe I was wrong about that one.'" she was quoted by The Huffington Post as saying.
Based on Ari's Twitter update, it appears "Problem" has also become a hit in the UK. The single was very recently released on the other side of the pond and earned similar success in terms of record sales.
