[C#m] [A] [F#m] Ariana Grande channels Broadway and Atlanta with an ode to her best friends on 7 Rings.
[G#]
7 Rings is produced by TB Hits and Social House, the collective behind two songs off
her latest album, Sweetener, including,
Good Night & Go and the Billboard Hot 100 No.
1 hit, Thank U, Next.
In early December, Grande explained the inspiration behind 7 Rings saying quote,
"'Twas a pretty rough day at NYC.
My friends took me to Tiffany's.
We had too much champagne.
I bought us all rings."
Counting Grande, the six [A] other rings went to her best friends Taylor Parks,
Courtley Cipollone, Neomza, Alex Luria, Victoria Monet and Cadence.
She also shouts out the rings she received from her former [C#m] fiancé, Pete Davidson.
[A]
[F#m] [G#m] [G#]
[B] Ariana also reworks the Julie Andrews cut,
My Favorite Things, from the 1959 Broadway musical, The Sound of Music,
while referencing the Audrey Hepburn 1961 classic,
Breakfast at Tiffany's, to describe her real-life diamond [C#m] shopping trip.
[A]
[F#m] [G#m]
[C] [Fm]
With this interpolation, Grande walks in the footsteps of music royalty,
joining Anita Baker, Barbra Streisand, Mary J.
Blige and many other acts who have covered
Andrews' My Favorite Things.
Next, Ariana gives a nod to a number of hip-hop songs, starting with Lil Mama's, Lip [C#m] Gloss.
[A]
The chorus has sparked some chatter on social media over where it draws its influence.
I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it, [F#m] if you like my hair, gee thanks, just bought it.
Ain't that the little song I made about brown women and their [B] hair?
It's [C#] mine, I bought it, it's [F#] mine, I bought it, it's mine, [Fm] I bought it.
Sounds about right.
Historically, Ari also appears to interpolate Atlantis 2 Chainz and
Soulja Boy's cuts, Spend It and Pretty Boy Swag respectively,
with a splash of Beyonce's formation.
It's mine, I spend it, it's mine, I spend it, I'm riding around, I'm [C] getting it.
Every [D#] bone, paint, a T.
[F#] This right here is [E] my pretty boy [D#m] swag.
[Fm] Let's see it, I want it, girl I touch yellow, want it, I dream it, I work hard, I'm done till I own it.
The music video, directed by Hannah Lux Davis, the eye [B] behind
Thank U, Next may also pay homage to 2 Chainz's pink trap house.
The hip-hop inspiration doesn't stop there,
as she references the late Notorious B.I.G.'s classic,
Give Me The Loot.
[C#m]
[D#m] [G] Ariana had been teasing 7 Rings for quite a while.
In the music video for Thank U, Next, 7 Rings is pictured on the license plate of a car.
7 Rings has shot to the top of the Genius song chart.
