\n\tOn Tuesday (April 28), Ariana Grande<\/a> announced her eighth studio album, petal.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs noted on streamers, the project will arrive not only via Grande\u2019s longtime label home, Republic Records, but also a new entity called Babydoll Music.<\/p>\n

\n\tBillboard has confirmed that Babydoll Music is Grande\u2019s new company, and that petal marks the first release to be owned by that company as a license to Republic \u2014 continuing her longstanding partnership with the label.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Grande\u2019s back catalog remains unchanged, all future releases will be owned by Grande\u2019s entity and exclusively licensed out.<\/p>\n

\n\tPetal, which arrives July 31, was executive produced by Grande and longtime collaborator Ilya. It follows her 2024 set, Eternal Sunshine, which became her sixth album to top the Billboard 200 (following Yours Truly; My Everything; Sweetener; Thank U, Next; and Positions).<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a statement, Grande described petal as \u201csomething that is full of life and growing through the cracks of something cold and hard and challenging.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tThe album will arrive in the middle of Grande\u2019s highly anticipated Eternal Sunshine tour, which kicks off in Oakland, Calif., on June 6 and wraps with 10 dates at London\u2019s The O2, with the final show set for Sept. 1. On album release day, Grande will be performing at Montreal\u2019s Centre Bell arena.<\/p>\n

\n\tOutside of music, Grande is continuing to cultivate an acting career. Following her role as Glinda in Wicked and Wicked: For Good, she will next appear in Focker-In-Law alongside Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro, out this November, and will also appear on the upcoming season of American Horror Story. And in 2027 (yes, she\u2019s booked out that far), she will make her debut on London\u2019s West End in a revival of Sunday in the Park With George alongside fellow Wicked castmate Jonathan Bailey.<\/p>\n
