Ariana Grande has dropped a new single, "Problem," from the Nickelodeon star’s forthcoming sophomore album and featuring Australian rapper Iggy Azalea.

The first track from the as-yet-untitled album, due sometime later this year, is an ode to letting go of one’s unworthy exes and instituting a no-scrubs policy.

So to speak. Take a listen below and see what you think:

As only she can (or at least only she and a few others can), Ariana Grande’s soaring vocals compliment a beat that feels like it belongs in the club.

The Sam & Cat star’s debut album, Yours Truly and its mix of R&B and pop genres drew comparisons to Mariah Carey when it dropped last year.

No pressure to repeat that with album #2, AG.

As for Iggy Azalea, she spits mad game (and Jay Z references) throughout, proving that these two young faces joining forces is hardly a "Problem" at all.

Ariana is also collaborating with Chris Brown – for some reason – while the fate of her TV show seems a lot less certain than her rising musical career.

Despite the success of its first season, Sam & Cat has not been renewed by Nickelodeon. Could that be related to the Ariana Grande nude photo scandal?

Or her feud with Jennette McCurdy? Or the Jennette McCurdy scandal? Or McCurdy’s beef with Nick? These girls and their scandals and beefs.

Time will tell if they get Sam & Cat canceled or not, but you can tell us right now: What do you think of Ariana’s new single with Iggy Azalea? Discuss!
