Ariana Grande is taking some time away from the limelight the way she knows best - in the studio.

The pop superstar recently - and very understandably - put a stop to all promotion of her just-released fourth album after some tragic personal news, although she’s keeping herself busy.

It’s no secret that Ari finds the writing and recording process to be healing, as she frequently described the making of 'sweetener' as being like therapy that helped her greatly following the Manchester Arena bombing.

The ‘Breathin’ singer surprised fans in the early hours of this morning with a minute-long video of a new song from the studio.

“Passionate but i don’t give no fucks / I admit that I’m a little messed up,” she sings. “I can hide it when I’m all dressed up / I’m obsessed with being loved too hard.”

“And I can be needy, way too damn needy / Tell me how good it feels to be needed.”

Her vocals are strong and assured despite the vulnerable lyrics, singing over wonderfully simplistic, laidback R&B production.

There’s no expectation for Grande to release another project any time soon as 'sweetener' did only arrive in August, although she did drop her 'Christmas & Chill'EP immediatelyafter it was recorded in a handful of days before so she can do whatever she wants.

The new song sounds absolutely incredible so of course we'd love it ASAP, although Ari can do whatever makes her happy.

(You better drop this one day, though, okay hun?)
