Grande's second studio album, My Everything (2014), continued the pop-R&B sound of its predecessor and incorporated EDM elements. It topped the Billboard 200 and featured four US top-ten singles: "Problem", "Break Free", "Bang Bang", and "Love Me Harder" featuring The Weeknd, the most of any artist that year. Grande's pop-R&B styles extended on her third studio album, Dangerous Woman (2016), which was her first of three consecutive number-one albums in the UK, and spawned top ten hits such as the Grammy nominated title track and "Side to Side".
On her next two albums, Sweetener (2018) and Thank U, Next (2019), Grande experimented with trap while maintaining her characteristic pop-R&B tones; being projects with her most creative control yet and showing a more personal and vulnerable side, both debuted at number one in several countries and were acclaimed by music critics. The former won a Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album and spawned the international top three hit "No Tears Left to Cry", while the latter broke several streaming records. Grande became the first solo artist to hold the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously when "7 Rings", "Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored" and "Thank U, Next" did so in 2019. She is also the first artist to have the lead singles from each of their first six studio albums debut within the top ten in the US.
Grande released her sixth studio album, Positions (2020) with its lead single, "Positions" debuting at number one in the US and the UK simultaneously. The song became her third number one hit in the US following "Stuck With U" in collaboration with Justin Bieber and "Rain On Me", also in collaboration with Lady Gaga. A deluxe version of Positions was released in February 2021, with four new songs and a remix of "34+35" featuring Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion. The remix helped the song peak at number two, the highest-charting song credited to three or more female soloist since 2001 when "Lady Marmalade" performed by Christina Aguilera, Mýa, P!nk, and Lil Kim peaked at number one. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, becoming her fifth album to do so. In April 2021, a remix of The Weeknd's "Save Your Tears" was released featuring Grande. The song reached number one in both the US Hot 100 and the Canadian Hot 100. It spent a total of 69 weeks in the US charts, becoming one of the ten longest-running songs in that chart since its publication.
In November 2021, it was announced that Grande would star in the two-part film adaptation of the musical Wicked. The movie is set to release on November 24th, 2024.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got one more problem with you girl
Aye
Hey, baby even though I hate ya
I wanna love ya
I want you
And even though I can't forgive ya
I want you
Tell me, tell me, baby
Why can't you leave me
'Cause even though I shouldn't want it
I gotta have it
I want you
Head in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser
And realize that I've got
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
I know you're never gonna wake up
I gotta give up
But it's you
I know I shouldn't ever call back
Or let you come back
But it's you
Every time you touch me
And say you love me
I get a little bit breathless
I shouldn't want it
But it's you
Head in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser
And realize that I've got
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya

Smart money bettin', I'll be better off without you
In no time, I'll be forgettin' all about you
You saying that you know
But I really, really doubt you
Understand my life is easy
When I ain't around you
Iggy Iggy, too biggie to be here stressing
I'm thinking I love the thought of you
More than I love your presence
And the best thing now
Is probably for you to exit
I let you go, let you back
I finally learned my lesson
No half-stepping
Either you want it or you just playin'
I'm listening to you knowin'
I can't believe what you're sayin'
There's a million you's baby boo
So don't be dumb
I got ninety-nine problems
But you won't be one
Like what!

Head in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders (one less, one less problem)

I got one less problem without ya (without you)
I got one less problem without ya (I got one less, one less yeah)
I got one less, one less problem (problem, yeah)
"Problem" by Ariana Grande featuring Iggy Azalea is a song about a complicated love relationship. The lyrics describe the singer's dilemma as she tries to move on from a toxic relationship. The song begins with Iggy Azalea's verse, where she outlines that she has one more problem with the girl, implying that there were already several other issues. Ariana Grande then takes over the rest of the song, explaining that even though she hates this person, she still wants to be with them but knows that it's not the right thing to do. She questions why this person can't leave her alone, even though she knows she shouldn't be with them. Despite everything, she still gets emotional when the person shows affection towards her, which further confuses her. Ariana acknowledges that she should be wiser and recognize that she's better off without this person, but her head is in the clouds, and she can't help but feel breathless whenever they touch.
Overall, the song is a bittersweet exploration of a complicated relationship with excellent vocals from Ariana Grande and a great rap verse from Iggy Azalea.
Line by Line Meaning
Uh huh, it's Iggy Iggz
The song features Iggy Azalea
I got one more problem with you girl
I still have one issue left with you
Hey, baby even though I hate ya
Despite my distaste for you
I wanna love ya
I want to feel affection towards you
I want you
I desire your companionship
And even though I can't forgive ya
Although I cannot pardon you
I really want to
I truly wish to forgive you
Tell me, tell me, baby
Communicate with me
Why can't you leave me
Why are you unable to depart from me
'Cause even though I shouldn't want it
Despite the fact I should not desire this
I gotta have it
I must have it
Head in the clouds
Distracted or not focused on reality
Got no weight on my shoulders
Feeling unburdened or carefree
I should be wiser
I ought to be more intelligent
And realize that I've got
Acknowledge that I have
One less problem without ya
My life is less complicated without you
I know you're never gonna wake up
I am aware you will never change
I gotta give up
I need to let go
But it's you
But my feelings linger for you
I know I shouldn't ever call back
I realize I should not contact you again
Or let you come back
Or allow you to return
Every time you touch me
When you come into contact with me
And say you love me
And express affection towards me
I get a little bit breathless
I become slightly short of breath
I shouldn't want it
I should not yearn for this
But it's you
But it's still you
What you got?
What are you bringing to the table?
Smart money bettin', I'll be better off without you
Intelligent people would wager that I'd be happier without you
In no time, I'll be forgettin' all about you
Soon, I'll have no memory of you
You saying that you know
You profess to be aware
But I really, really doubt you
But I strongly question that
Understand my life is easy
Comprehend that my life is simple
When I ain't around you
When I'm not in your company
Iggy Iggy, too biggie to be here stressing
Iggy Azalea is too famous to be worried about this situation
I'm thinking I love the thought of you
I believe I am in love with the idea of you
More than I love your presence
More than I love being with you
And the best thing now
And currently, the best option
Is probably for you to exit
Is most likely for you to leave
I let you go, let you back
I have allowed you to depart and then come back
I finally learned my lesson
I ultimately learned from my mistakes
No half-stepping
Do not be indecisive
Either you want it or you just playin'
Either you truly desire this or you are only pretending
I'm listening to you knowin'
I am hearing what you say, but I do not believe it
I can't believe what you're sayin'
I find it difficult to accept what you're telling me
There's a million you's baby boo
There are countless people like you
So don't be dumb
Do not be foolish
I got ninety-nine problems
I have numerous difficulties in my life
But you won't be one
But you will not be among them
Head in the clouds
Distracted or not focused on reality
Got no weight on my shoulders
Feeling unburdened or carefree
One less problem without ya
My life is less complicated without you
