These are tried-and-tested products that we can't wait to get our hands on!

After their recent release of &ldquo;Bed,&rdquo; Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj are back with yet another collaboration &ldquo;The Light is Coming.&rdquo; Co-written and produced by Pharrell, the song will be on Grande&rsquo;s upcoming album Sweetener, out on August 17. The track is pure pop perfection where Grande&#39;s powerhouse vocals harmoniously blend with Minaj&#39;s effortless flow. The &quot;No Tears Left To Cry&quot; singer gave fans a special preview performance of the single at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYX5euRm-HY" target="_blank">iHeart Radio&#39;s Wango Tango</a> earlier this year.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

The release comes after Nicki&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/nicki-minaj-future-nickihndrxx-tour" target="_blank">tour announcement</a> with Future and the premiere of another Ariana feature; the recently engaged singer also contributed vocals to the groovy single&nbsp;&quot;<a href="http://www.lofficielusa.com/music/listen-to-troye-sivan-and-ariana-grande-s-new-song-dance-to-this" target="_blank">Dance To This</a>&quot; on Troye Sivan&#39;s album&nbsp;Bloom. Still,&nbsp;no word yet on when we&#39;ll be getting a video for &quot;The Light Is Coming,&quot; &nbsp;but we do have the music video teaser for &quot;Bed&quot; to tide us over. In it, the two besties play around in a bubble-filled pool without a care in the world. Listen to &quot;The Light Is Coming&quot; above and watch the steamy 1-minute clip below. Evidently, when it comes to a Grande/Minaj collaboration, it&#39;s a gift that keeps on giving.&nbsp;

So Tyler, what was it like to get invited to collaborate with Bergdorf and Artsy?

It [was] really exciting! I didn&#39;t know Artsy even knew about me or what I was doing [so] I felt like I had to do it.

&nbsp;

Can you walk me through the concepts you used for these works?

A lot of what I shot is personal. It&#39;s all kind of a mixture. It&#39;s very documentary and simple, spur of the moment ideas about black masculinity. It&#39;s kind of symbolic and the way I chose to install it looks at doubles and singles of Black men that I&#39;ve cast over the past year or so. The shots themselves use styling, posing, [and] symbolism to talk about connection and visibility amongst Black men.

Frank Ocean – "Moon River"

And you guys famously hung out in Cape Cod gay-mecca Provincetown with a whole crew that included photographers Nan Goldin and David Armstrong.&nbsp;

We were drunk and high all the time in Provincetown. I was only there one summer and I lived with Mark and Stephen Tashjian. We did wild things, like hit the streets in ridiculous outfits and put on performances on the street corner. That was the summer I met David Armstrong, and at that time, he was probably 27, but to me, I thought, here&rsquo;s this old queen who had really lived it, and he knows everyone. I felt privileged to know him, and I thought, What could I find out from him? It felt like we were receiving information that was important to have and that only an older generation had.
