eternal sunshine is a concept album about divorce and heartbreak, and Ariana Grande co-wrote every track. Her main creative partner is Max Martin, who produced 11 of the 13 songs, working alongside Ilya Salmanzadeh and Nick Lee. The single 'the boy is mine' nods to the 1998 Brandy and Monica hit of the same name, tying the album's themes to R&B history.
eternal sunshine, released on March 8, 2024, was Ariana Grande's seventh studio album and her most deliberately constructed project, built almost entirely in sessions with Max Martin over a sustained period, creating a cohesive dreamlike pop-electronic sound that departs from the R&B warmth of her previous work. Grande received production credits throughout the album, reflecting the deepest involvement she has had in the sonic architecture of any record she has released. The lead single 'yes, and?' (co-produced by Grande, Max Martin, and Ilya) is a house-influenced track about ignoring outside noise that debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Track 13, 'ordinary things,' was co-written with Grande's maternal grandmother (credited as Nonna in the performers list), whose speaking voice appears on the track; Marjorie Grande is listed as a co-writer, making it one of the most personally intimate songs in Grande's catalog. Track 4, 'saturn returns interlude,' samples a YouTube video by astrologer Diana Garland discussing the significance of the Saturn return at age 29, for which Garland receives a lyricist credit. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and was widely praised as a career-defining work.
