Ariana Grande has released “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” the first single from her upcoming album Petal . The song was produced by her long-time collaborator Ilya alongside Max Martin.

The buoyant pop song sees Grande reflecting on a lost love who may have had stronger feelings for her than she did for them. “Hate that I made you love me,” she croons over a shimmering, ambient instrumental backdrop. “Sorry if I made me your type/ Yeah, I hate that I made you love me/ ‘Cause I barely tried.”

An official music video for “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” directed by Christian Breslauer, will premiere on Monday, June 1 at 8 a.m. PST.

Beyond the lead single, not much is currently known about Grande’s eighth album Petal , except that it was executive produced and co-written by Grande and Ilya. Before its reveal, the singer joked that she would need “ an extra brain and four more arms ” to release another album. Upon the LP’s announcement, she described the record as “a little feral.”

“It was kind of about breaking up with all different kinds of negative attachments — whether it’s my own monsters in my own head, external voices, things that no longer serve me,” she said . “It was a writing experiment for me to use that as a template so that I could be talking about one thing and sharing something, and people could use it however they want and apply it to their own lives.”
