2020 is about to get another surprise, this time for a good reason. Earlier this month, Ariana Grande teased on Twitter that she couldn’t wait to drop her album. Knowing that Grande is good for her word, fans have been anticipating a single and album release date since October is quickly coming to an end. Fans soon noticed that the star’s official website had been blacked out, and earlier today, Grande tweeted out the link to her site which sported a new makeover: a countdown for both her single, “Positions,” and album of the same name. The single is set to release on October 23 and the album on October 30.
