While it will be her first time working with Ty Dolla Sign, her track with The Weeknd, entitled “Off The Table,” will be the duo’s second collaboration together following their 2013 effort, “Love Me Harder,” which appeared on Ariana’s sophomore album, My Everything. As for her Doja Cat collaboration, Ariana spoke about Doja and the song back in May during an interview with Zane Lowe on his Apple Music Beats 1 show.
“I love her. I was able to work with her earlier this year on this song that I want to save for whenever it’s time again, to drop,” Ariana said. “But I love her so much. I love her personality. I love what she brings to the table musically. She’s just such a breath of fresh air. I think she’s brilliant and so talented.”
