I don't think it's coming that soon, lol. But I won't complain if it is, YT is amazing. Hopefully she goes on a different route for the next one though. She needs a smash to truly blow up and I don't think anything on YT will do it.
Ariana's second album most likely wont be out in Feb. They'll delay it. And she's not gonna turn pop. She's not a fan of pop. YT was originally gonna be more pop, but she herself said she didn't care for that direction.
Ariana has talent and a voice. Pop music is for weak singers who need to busy production to mask their limitations. When you've got talent, you put it on display with R&B. I can imagine Ariana's next album being even more soulfully urban.
Highly doubt it. Idk if you've heard the songs that were originally supposed to be on the album (all pop songs) and she took them off, even the ones fans favored but she didn't want to go in that direction.
It's common for sophomore albums to be released the next year after the debut (Madonna, Mariah, Rihanna, and Gaga did it) but February?
No. I'm so tired of everyone considering The Fame Monster and whole separate album when it was and forever will be an EP. The Fame and Born This Way had a 2 and a half year separation.
