Ariana Grande might be calling it an “instant gratification” track, but honestly, girl, you’re really just teasing the life out of us with all these My Everything previews.
Grande dropped yet another full-release on (August 12) on iTunes, this time featuring the smooth rhymes of Big Sean. “Best Mistake” walks in the footsteps of records like Rihanna’s “We Found Love,” with the singer dropping heavy lines about the struggle of an on-again, off-again broken relationship.
“Break up / Make up / Total waste of time / Can we please make up our minds / And stop acting like we’re fine,” the pop star cries with a tone that really says, “It’s over, boy.”
Sean follows up in another verse, attempting to mend the broken love with, “I guess time’s wasting / Tick-Tocking / Lip-Locking / How can we keep the feelings fresh / How do we Zip-lock it.”
“Best Mistake” is the former Disney star’s second collaboration with the MC. Sean’s lusty lips made a cameo appearance in Grande and Iggy’s “Problem” video with his background whispers.
The track takes a twisted turn from the album’s party-banger teasers like “Problem,” “Break Free” and “Love Me Harder,” but it continues to hit on a solid theme about hard-to-handle relationships.
My Everything hits shelves August 25.
