DO ARIANA’S FANS HELP HER MAKE MUSIC?

Forget the record label, Ariana Grande goes straight to her fans when she needs advice on the new music she’s making. “I have, like, a couple of very close friends that I met through the internet, through being fans of mine, like four or five years ago,” she shares. “We became very close and like with Sweetener and thank u, next and Positions, like they heard all of it and more that didn’t make it beforehand and helped me put it together.” Ari explains that while she listens to the opinions of the people at her label, nothing compares to her fans’ opinions. “I really value what my fans have to say,” she spills. “I trust them with everything because they are the people that I care about touching with this music the most.”
