Ariana Grande and The Weeknd fans can rejoice, as the pop music duo teased another collaboration via social media on Feb. 21. “Wrote and recorded a verse for my friend after a 14 hour day on set. This certain exception had to be made….”, the 29-year-old hitmaker captioned her TikTok video. In the clip, Ariana could be seen vocalizing the track and cutting the mix together on her computer. Although neither she nor the 33-year-old singer has confirmed what song it is, many fans speculate that it is The Weeknd’s 2016 track “Die for You”, given the brief lyrics that the songstress belted out.
