Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong> is saying “thank u, next”<\/a> to 2019 in the sweetest way.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the Grammy-nominated singer<\/a> dropped a new album k bye for now<\/em>, a compilation of the live performances from several stops of her Sweetener World Tour. Featuring songs from 2018’s Sweetener<\/em> and 2019’s thank u, next<\/em>, the 32-song album was Ariana’s way to end her fourth concert tour<\/a>, which ran from March 18 until December 22, on a sweet note.  <\/p>\n

Excited to share the release with her fans, Ariana took to Twitter with a sweet message, writing<\/a>, “A little something to thank u for everything and to make saying goodbye to this chapter a lil easier love u.”<\/p>\n

Also feeling a little sentimental about the tour’s ending was Frankie Grande<\/strong>, who left his little sister a touching tribute on Instagram<\/a>. “One chapter closes. another one begins. i am so proud of you ariana for the most beautiful piece of work you have ever gifted the planet… so far,” the Celebrity Big Brother<\/em> star said.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The “God is a Woman” singer<\/a> teased that the album was coming earlier this month, calling it “something sweet n special to say thank u for this year.” She also shared that she played a major role in producing the vocals for k bye for now<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“love u hello ! been prepping these vocals for the live album,” she wrote on Twitter. “Listening to first pass mixes & am so excited vocal producing everything myself, johnny’s been producing all the band parts ! deadline is soon so jus saying hello and love u and miss u.”<\/p>\n

Arianators will be thrilled to see that Ariana included her other hit songs<\/a> on the album as well. Live performances of “Into You,” “Dangerous Woman,” “Break Free,” “Tattooed Heart,” “Right There,” and more are featured on the track list.<\/p>\n
