She is signed to Universal Republic Records and has recently released her very first single, "The Way," on March 26th, 2013. It features her good friend and Pittsburgh rapper Mac Miller (Check him out, he's pretty dope.)

Anywayzz, lets start with the lyrics.
So what I have come up with from listening to this song multiple, multiple.....MULTIPLE times is basically that she's telling her boyfriend or love interest or whomever(blehh) that she loves the way they make her feel. And Mac Miller's part I guess is telling the male point of view, which is pretty helpful I should think..
The song was actually written by  Harmony SamuelsMac MillerJordin SparksBrenda RussellSevyn Streeter, and Al Sherrod Lambert. I don't really know any of those names except for, of course, Mac and JORDAN SPARKS!
NO AIR, NO AIRRRRRR!
As we all know, she's pretty good at writing popy love songs....
Check out the lyrics for yourself: The Way- Ariana Grande ft. Mac Miller Lyrics
The video for this song is pretty awesome two. It's Ariana as the main protagonist and she's dancing in a sea of balloons!(WHOOOOO, BALLOONS!) Mac is her love interest in the video and it shows him as the loving boyfriend taking picture(appropriate ones!) of her. There is a kiss in the video, of course! But the two have claimed to be just friends, so we're gonna stick with that till they say otherwise! I just also watched a VERY HILARIOUS video of YouTube Personality GloZell watching the video and Reading the lyrics of the song.
It's a flipping classic. You need to see it. 
But anyways, I found this song very refreshing to hear. In today's very techy-age, its urban-R&B, 60's style composition is quite interesting and like I said REFRESHING to hear! And her vocal range is FREAKIN' OUT OF THIS WORLD! AND AT 19 YEARS OLD, INCREDIBLE  She was hittin' those notes so well, I thought that Mariah Carey was in the song for a second! 
This girl is going to go VERY VERY far, in the bizz..if I do say so myself.
Hey, maybe I'll work with her one day and we can make an amazing song together???
I'll have my people call your people??
Haha, I keed, I keed! 
Kind of...
Anywhoo,
