Pop icon Ariana Grande has just revealed her future plans in the music industry, an announcement fans have been waiting years for.
For the past three years, Ariana’s focus has been on her REM Beauty brand and her role in the upcoming movie adaptation of ‘Wicked,’ rather than on releasing new music.
Although she has not released music of her own since ‘Positions,’ the pop singer has made appearances on other artists’ singles, such as a track with Kid Cudi in 2021 and a remix of The Weeknd’s After Hours hit ‘Save Your Tears.’
She also released a holiday track alongside Kelly Clarkson in 2021, ‘Santa, Can’t You Hear Me?’

“I’ve never felt more at the mercy of and in acceptance of what life was screaming to teach me. I’ve never felt more fulfilled by or present in my work, being able to cherish every moment,” she wrote on social media, adding, “I gave everything I could have possibly given of my heart and of myself to the projects I was fortunate enough to be a part of and learned so much from every brilliant, beautiful, soul that I had the privilege of creating art with and crossing paths with this near.”
