Brace yourselves, you guys, because less than two months after Ariana Grande released her album, Thank U, Next, she just announced that she’s dropping another new song. That’s right, we’re about to get a brand new bop from the singer, and um, we’re freaking out!
Ari took to Twitter on Wednesday, March 27 to let fans know that her new song, Monopoly, is coming out Monday, April 1, 2019. OMG… That means we are only a few days away! And the best part? It’s a duet with singer/songwriter Victoria Monet!
It all started when the ladies teased some of the lyrics on Twitter.
“Work so f–kin’ muuuuuch, need a twinny twin twin @VictoriaMonet,” the “God Is a Woman” songstress wrote.
“You’d be straight for life if I gave you my pin,” Victoria added.
even tho we gave up that 90% for the win 💸🖤 https://t.co/ncz5Ddg7Bf

“Even though we gave up that 90 percent for the win,” the 25-year-old continued.
Naturally, the internet went wild. We mean, we’re all still listening to Thank U, Next on repeat, but that doesn’t mean we’re not dying for some more new music! And the former Victorious actress got so excited about the fans’ reaction, that she decided it’s time to release it.
“Man, let’s drop it tomorrow night @VictoriaMonet,” Ari tweeted. “‘7 Rings’ is about to be number 1 for eight weeks and the album might go back to [number] 1 too… We need to celebrate tbh! Life too short and too sweet rn. Hmmmmmmm.”

“You ain’t never lied and his moment waaay too special! Let’s dooo it!” Victoria responded.

We are living for this! But Victoria had a better idea.
“Yoo let’s drop it Monday so we can celebrate an eighth week at number 1. Cause this s–t is insaaaane,” she wrote.
“Word it’s also like… not mastered or ready or delivered,” Ariana responded. “See, this is why I can’t go on Twitter anymore, I get too excited and say s–t I shouldn’t. However, Monday is soon enough! We love you.”
So it’s official. Monopoly is coming out this Monday, and we seriously can’t wait! And get this, you guys — this actually isn’t Ariana and Victoria’s first duet together. Although it was never released, they’ve performed a duet called “Better Days” together a few times.
In case you forgot, the ladies have been close for years, and Victoria, 25, even opened up for the singer on her Dangerous Woman Tour. Victoria’s also cowrote a few of Ari’s major hits, like “Be Alright,” “Let Me Love You” and “Thank U, Next.” We know the new song is going to be epic.
