Ariana Grande’s New Single Influenced By Madonna

Ariana Grande's new single has been heavily influenced by Madonna.

The 30-year-old singer-songwriter recently announced her long-awaited return to the music scene, revealing that her new single, "yes, and?," has been strongly influenced by the chart-topping icon.

According to The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column, Grande has used Madonna's 1990 hit single "Vogue" as the major influence behind her much-anticipated new track.

It is no secret that Grande is a self-confessed fan of Madonna and she previously sang "Vogue" during her Honeymoon tour back in 2015. The brunette beauty also appeared on-stage as a surprise guest during Madonna's Rebel Heart tour. Ariana has previously admitted to having a huge admiration for the pop icon's longevity in the music business. She told Apple Music's Zane Lowe: "After everything she has accomplished, reshaping pop music and setting the bar higher and higher, I feel like she does it as she is still hungry and still loves it."

Grande revealed that Madonna's attitude really "resonates" with her, saying: "She has done what she needs to do - there are no more awards and hits she needs. She does it as she loves it and that resonates with me."

Recently Grande announced that "yes, and?" are slated to be released on Friday, Jan. 12.The award-winning star took to social media earlier this month to confirm her return to the music scene. Alongside a close-up photograph of her face, she wrote on Instagram: "yes, and? [❤️] 1.12 (sic)"

"yes, and?" is set to be released through Republic Records, as the lead single from her upcoming seventh studio album, Eternal Sunshine.

"yes, and?" is Grande's first solo musical output since positions. The artwork was partially revealed in December 2023 with a blurry close-up of Grande's red lips via R.E.M. Beauty packages that were sent to fans, with a note: "See you next year".
