" After building up anticipation with teasers on Twitter and Instagram, Ariana Grande&amp;#039;s music video for &amp;quot;The Way&amp;quot; is finally here! Featuring rapper Mac Miller, the song is super catchy. Only seven hours after it debuted, &amp;quot;The Way&amp;quot; reached the #1 spot on iTunes! In response, Ariana tweeted, &amp;quot;Really though a sincere thank u 2 everybody showing their support &amp;amp;amp; buying the record. Ik I&amp;#039;ve said that already but it&amp;#039;s my dream come tru!&amp;quot; Even though she is known for her role on Victorious\u2014and upcoming spin-off Sam &amp;amp;amp; Cat\u2014this song proves that Ariana&amp;#039;s more than just an actress. Singing is a strongsuit for the bubbly 19-year-old and her voice reminds us of a younger Mariah Carey (who Ariana considers one of her idols and inspirations!). In the song, she belts lyrics like, &amp;quot;Stay by your side, I&amp;#039;ll never leave you / I ain&amp;#039;t going nowhere, &amp;#039;cause you&amp;#039;re a keeper.&amp;quot; With balloons and playful flirting between Ariana and Mac, the video is just as fun as the song. Be sure to watch all the way to the end for a surprise ending! When she premiered the song On Air With Ryan Seacrest, she announced that the album is scheduled for a late summer release! Even though we love her covers of Justin Bieber and Frank Ocean on YouTube, we can&amp;#039;t wait to hear more of her own music! P.S. Did you know Ariana is helping Seventeen [Delete] Digital Drama?
