On Instagram, Grande also shared a quick note about the Thank U, Next album art, saying there will be a dark version for the physical release of the album, and a pink version for the digital release. OnMonday, Grande also told fans on Twitter that the record would be available to pre-order starting Friday, January 25th.
Thank U, Next will arrive just months after Sweetener, and in a recent interview with Billboard, Grande said she hopes to continue releasing music a similar pace. My dream has always been to be obviously not a rapper, but, like, to put out music in the way that a rapper does, she said. I feel like there are certain standards that pop women are held to that men arent. We have to do the teaser before the single, then do the single, and wait to do the preorder, and radio has to impact before the video, and we have to do the discount on this day, and all this shit. Its just like, Bruh, I just want to fucking talk to my fans and sing and write music and drop it the way these boys do. Why do they get to make records like that and I dont? So I do and I did and I am, and I will continue to.
