Pop star Ariana Grande has posted a series of cryptic tweets suggesting that new music is on the way.

The American songstress teased fans with what is presumably the title of her new song , No Tears Left to Cry, written upside down along with its Friday release date.

The 24 year-old has not released any new music since the Manchester Arena terror attack in March 2017, in which 23 people were killed.

Before the cryptic tweet, Ariana broke her four month social media silence by first posting a teardrop emoji and following it with a Tweet telling her 57 million followers fans she had “missed” them.

Her Instagram account was also awash with activity as her stories featured billboards with the song’s title splashed across America as well as Grande herself pictured wearing a sweatshirt with the slogan.

YouTube star and self-proclaimed “social media mogul”, Frankie Grande, also showed support for his sister’s new material by posting a Instagram photo with a teardrop as its caption.

Rapper and producer Pharrell Williams is also reported to have worked on the album as well as director, Dave Mayers, who has behing Kendrick Lamar’s Humble music video.

Fans quickly took to Twitter to celebrate the news and dissect the cryptic nature of Grande’s tweets.

Grande’s manager has confirmed that her new single will be released on Friday 20th April.
