Got a fussy little one? A relaxing new album of Ariana Grande hits transformed into soothing lullabies will make sure there’s no tears left to cry.
As Billboard can exclusively announce on Thursday (Nov. 13), Rockabye Baby! is gearing up to drop an LP of soft, sleepy-time versions of some of the pop star’s biggest hits, from “One Last Time” to “Dangerous Woman” and “Positions.” And ahead of the full-length’s release on Nov. 21, the company has shared a snippet of its take on eight-week Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper “7 Rings,” complete with an adorable animation.

The full track list features a total of 13 songs spanning Grande’s seven studio albums, as well as her evergreen Christmas smash “Santa Tell Me” and signature Wicked number “Popular.” The project’s album cover shows the Rockabye Baby! bear wearing a fuzzy bunny mask inspired by Grande’s Dangerous Woman era.

The two-time Grammy winner is the latest musician to have her work transformed into a Rockabye Baby! album. Some of the company’s past compilations include tributes to The Beatles, Bad Bunny, Queen, Taylor Swift, Snoop Dogg, Coldplay, Beyoncé, Journey, BTS and Marvin Gaye.
Though the genre is primarily geared toward little ones as they wind down for bedtime, Rockabye Baby! promises in a statement that its Grande compilation is perfect for “former theatre kids, pop diva parents, Boca Raton grandparents, future dangerous women and everyone in between.”
The tribute comes at an exciting time in Grande’s career, as the R.E.M. Beauty founder is currently gearing up for the worldwide premiere of Wicked: For Good, in which she stars as Glinda opposite Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba. Grande also recently wrapped filming on another screen project: Focker-in-Law.
Next year, the vocalist will embark on her first tour in six years, supporting 2024 Billboard 200 No. 1 album Eternal Sunshine — one song from which, the Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love),” will appear on the Grande-inspired Rockabye Baby! LP.
Check out the Rockabye Baby! version of “7 Rings” below.
