Ariana Grande fans got quite a surprise because… she’s back in the recording studio! The «Thank U Next» singer shared a bunch of photos on her Instagram, showing her hard at work in the studio. She was there with some colleagues, including Max Martin, a well-known music producer. These photos caused quite a buzz on social media, with fans speculating that Ariana might be dropping hints about something big.
Ariana has six albums under her belt: Yours Truly, My Everything, Dangerous Woman, Sweetener, Thank U, Next, and Positions. In August, she told her fans that she was working on her next album. So, people are now guessing that this could be her seventh studio album. The hint? She posted seven photos on December seventh. Some fans are going as far as suggesting that Ariana Grande might already have a demo of this supposed album ready, as hinted by the computer screen visible in the post.
Of course, the singer received many positive reactions to her post, including several from the music industry:
It’s been a couple of years since Ariana released new music. Although she’s given us some remixes, collaborations, and even a special edition of her debut album, Yours Truly, for its tenth anniversary, she hasn’t dropped brand-new tracks for a while. Some fans expressed their disappointment about this, and Ariana addressed those comments in a TikTok video.
@arianagrandewanted to sing you a little something but don’t want to sing anything that is not “Ozian” at the moment 🙂 keeping to my little bubble for now … done with lots of love.
In the video, Ariana appears wrapped in what looks like a pink blanket while singing the iconic melody of «Somewhere Over The Rainbow.» Text on the screen reads, “Why aren’t you a singer anymore?” In the video’s description, she wrote, “Wanted to sing you a little something but don’t want to sing anything that is not “Ozian” at the moment 🙂 keeping to my little bubble for now… Done with lots of love.”
