Ariana Grande’s Dangerous Woman arrived Thursday night, capping what was a very long but generous promotional campaign. The 15-track album features contributions from Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Macy Gray, and Future; it marks the popstar’s third studio effort and latest reinvention, sonically and lyrically. “I feel like DW is a heightened, super version of myself,†Grande said in response to a Twitter question about the persona she created for the project. “[She’s] the shot callllller/boss … Sometimes we have to wear armor to protect ourselves!†In the same Q&A, from earlier in the day, Grande also confirmed that a tour is in the works, and that an “Into You†music video is on the way. Further details were not given, but until then, Dangerous Woman is available here and streamable below:
