"Yes, And?" on YouTube |
"Yes, And?" is a song recorded by American singer Ariana Grande. It was released through Republic Records on January 12, 2024, as the lead single from her seventh studio album Eternal Sunshine (2024). Written and produced by Grande, Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh, the song is a house and pop track with ballroom elements. Lyrically, it focuses on self-confidence and preservation, overcoming negativity, while also addressing a range of negative press Grande received between 2020 and 2023.
Music critics complimented the song's production and noted inspiration from Madonna's 1990 single "Vogue". In the United States, "Yes, And?" debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Grande's sixth number-one debut and eighth overall number-one single, as well as her 21st top-ten on the chart. It additionally earned Grande her third number-one single on the Billboard Global 200 chart. Elsewhere, it peaked at number one in 10 more countries, and reached the top-ten in another 28 countries.
An accompanying music video for "Yes, And?" was directed by Christian Breslauer and released on YouTube simultaneously with the single. The video drew inspiration from that of Paula Abdul's "Cold Hearted" (1989) and depicts Grande staging a performance for a group of disapproving critics and winning them over. A remix of the song with American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey was released on February 16, 2024. "Yes, And?" received a nomination for Best Dance Pop Recording at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.
