At Home with Ariana Grande: The Playlist
Ariana Grande is excited that she’s able to bring some cheer to her fans during this unprecedented shelter-in-place period. “We wanted to make something fun that also helps and makes people feel less alone—or can be hopefully somewhat uplifting,” she says of her special Quarantine Prom playlist, which she made for Apple Music together with Justin Bieber in honour of their duet “Stuck With U”. “We wanted to put music out because music is the thing that makes people feel good.” In her interview for Apple Music’s At Home With series, the pop/R&B singer-songwriter shares that she’s been playing with her pet pig Piggy, helping others and donating to charity, and writing and recording music in her home studio. On this exclusive playlist, which features Grande’s Quarantine Prom selections, she’s included tracks by Troye Sivan, Madonna, Thundercat and the late Mac Miller. “He was the kind of person who woke up and rolled into the studio, tumbled out of bed and into the studio next door,” she says about Miller. “He was a person who gave literally every single second of his thought and time and life to his music.”
