Arianators assemble. Ariana Grande has just launched her sixth era and her new album Positions comes out in mere hours.

Last week (Oct 23), Ariana Grande released her first lead single since 'thank u, next' in 2018. 'Positions' is a stunning, string-led bop which sees Ariana open up about a new love in her life. The single also came with a cameo filled music video which sees Ariana play president of the US. 'Positions' is the first taste of her new album of the same name which drops Oct 30.

As it stands, Ariana is yet to reveal much information about Positions. However, last week (Oct 23), she unveiled the striking artwork, as well as the album's full tracklist. The LP contains 14 songs in total: 'shut up', '34+35', 'motive', 'just like magic', 'off the table', 'six thirty', 'safety net', 'my hair', 'nasty', 'west side', 'love language', 'positions', 'obvious' and 'pov'.

While it's currently unclear who Ariana worked with on each song, 'motive' is a collaboration with Doja Cat, 'off the table' is a duet with The Weeknd and 'safety net' features Ty Dolla $ign. Ariana wrote 'Postions' with Tommy Brown, London On Da Track and Nija Charles so we imagine that they will appear more on the album.

Ariana's friends and longterm collaborators Victoria Monét and Tayla Parx are also rumoured to have credits on Positions.

Discussing the album on Twitter (Oct 24), Ariana wrote: "i don’t have a top three or anything ! everything goes hand in hand. this project is my favorite for many reasons and i really can’t wait for it to be yours. thank u for your love and excitement, it means the world to me." We can't wait to hear it.
