“it is overwhelming and so sincerely moving to see how many of you this song has resonated with and it is such a gift to feel so seen and held by you!” the Positions artist added, referring to its lyrics about keeping one’s head held high. “thank you for your positivity, for your support and for everything. you have no idea how much you mean to me!”

The clip Grande shared along with her message to fans — known as the Arianators — features a compilation of footage from the set of the music video of “Yes, And?” which dropped along with the track. In the video, she practices choreography, makes sure her signature winged eyeliner is to perfection, hypes up her crew of back-up dancers and gets in front of the camera.
“This is the best day of my life,” the pop star sweetly exclaims at the end of the clip, as they appear to wrap the project.
The “7 Rings” artist released the house-inspired single, which she co-wrote with acclaimed pop songwriters/producers Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh, a month after she began teasing it on social media. It marks her first solo music release in nearly three years and finds her looking into the face of negativity with self-confidence and pose.
“Your business is yours and mine is mine,” Grande sings on the track. “Why do you care so much whose [d---] I ride?”
In the video, she evokes Paula Abdul, taking inspiration from her iconic dance video for 1988’s “Cold Hearted.”
Days after the single dropped, the singer-songwriter shared the title and additional artwork for her seventh studio album.
