It's been so long since fans have gotten an Ariana Grande album. Her previous record, Thank U, Next, which released in February 2019, was a massive success, pumping out hits like "7 Rings" and "Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored," so fans can't wait to hear what's next from the star. Over on Twitter, Grande teased a few songs she's been working on, and even though fans only heard snippets, they can already tell her sixth record is going to be her best one yet. Ariana Grande's Positions album details will only get everyone more excited for what's to come.

This year, Grande has been focusing a lot on collaborations. On May 8, she and Justin Bieber shared their romantic single, "Stuck With U," and then just a few weeks later, Grande teamed up with Lady Gaga for "Rain On Me." The track went on to win Song of the Year, Best Collaboration, and Best Cinematography at the 2020 VMAs, while Grande and Bieber's song won Best Music Video From Home. Fans loved the collabs, but couldn't wait for Grande to release some solo music again.
