What a bad album cover, which is a shame, because she has had at least a couple solid ones. In general tho, they have been very Gen Z. Her best were Sweetener and Positions.

The album title gives me such good vibes. Sounds like a critics' darling album lol.
PS: I hope the default / digital artwork is a different photo and this is just an alternate. I don't like it at all.

Terribly bland cover, if that’s indeed the cover. Perhaps her worst one, even. I too hope there’s a different cover somehow.
Very excited to hear the song and album though. I wonder when she plans on dropping the record.

Guess I will be one of the only ones who enjoys the cover if that is the main one.

We already know there are multiple covers, per Ariana herself. I dig the title, though. I just remembered that Ari is a big fan of Jim Carrey, so I'm guessing she's a fan of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as well.

Spotless Mind would be a much better title imo, but this one is fine too.

It’s out! It’s cute and I like it. KINDA wish it went a little harder w Max on board but it’s def for the clubs and the gays. It’s very early 90s Madonna. i’ll probably end up loving it in a week.

The music video of "yes, and?" is out now. I like the song's idea is reflected in the music video in its own way.
I can see some elements/ideas of the music video paid some homage to Paula Abdul's "Cold-Hearted". But definitely different in other ways (like Paula cared about the opinions of the executives comes to see her performance at the end. But Ari, well don't care, went back as the statues and wait for next set of people coming in.)

The lyrics are giving this vibe, honestly, but I feel like the song will grow on me.

That looks like Ice Spice on the left, I don't recognise anyone else I think SZA is in the middle. On the right, people speculate it's Dua or Olivia, but not sure about that.

Digging this song a lot. She's not really giving us big vocals but it's a vibe. It's not giving me Madonna so much though. I am hearing more Janet in it than Madonna. The backbeat (not the lyrics clearly) are reminding me of Together Again a little bit.

Eternal Sunshine shares the same initials with Ethan Slater. She knew what she was doing with that title.

The single/alt album cover gives Kylie Kiss Me Once vibes.

Love me some Ari but hope she goes back to the black hair or some other color. I cannot believe she is still only doing ponytails.
