The unexpected tweet directly contradicted statements made by Grande in an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe earlier this year.
Ariana explained at the time that, despite having a home music studio at her disposal, she did not ‘really feel comfortable’ releasing new music due to the pandemic.

‘I don’t really feel comfortable putting anything out right now, because it’s just like other than this, it’s a really tricky time for all of that,’ said Grande.
Ariana’s last album, thank u next, came out in February 2019 and went double platinum after it was named the second best performing album in the country.
The album was nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album at the January 2020 Grammy Awards, but she sadly went home empty-handed despite five nominations.

The record was written in the midst of personal struggles with ex-fiancee Pete Davidson, and after grappling with the death of ex-boyfriend Mac Miller, who died a month after her 2018 album Sweetener was released.
After the two very public relationships, Grande has since moved onto a more private one with luxury real estate agent, Dalton Gomez, 27.
The two were first linked in the spring, after she was spotted kissing him around Valentine’s Day.
