I am all here for it!!
This might finally give him a hit
Who can Wildhorn write for?
I think it would be interesting to see the old-fashioned STAR vehicle make a comeback.
However I don't see all that from the one tweet. Could just be a song or something.
Agreed, that seems like it may just be a song. Can you imagine if JRB had a pop hit on the radio? This would be a topsy-turvy world indeed.

OMG he is writing a musical or someone who has been on Broadway before. This is really strange. Why does everyone feel this is news

"Can you imagine if JRB had a pop hit on the radio?"
I know I can't.
Maybe they were just literally cooking up some sh!t, like he said. Who knows what crazy Hollywood diets these starlets are on?
Ugh.
This is great! But I don't think he is writing a musical for her, I think he was just writing a few things for her upcoming album. I can see him writing a strong ballad for her.
I sincerely doubt he's writing songs for her album. Just doesn't seem like something that would happen. Unless maybe he's writing a song for a musical that she will introduce on her album, a la Andrew Lloyd Webber. But still, I've heard some early cuts for her album and unless he was writing something heavily R&B influenced, I don't see it working thematically. So I'm crossing my fingers it's a vehicle.
It looks like he did write a song for her album! It's an exclusive track called "Jason's Song (Gave It Away)".

It's pretty good! One of my faves on the record.
Should've expected there'd be an insane piano solo
He would name the song after him.
Ariana named the song.
First they need to teach her how to speak English. What is she singing about?

Thank you for kindly providing a source.
Congrats to him for getting on the deluxe edition! still a huge deal. I was just wondering earlier: what IS he working on? I haven't heard of anything since Honeymoon in Vegas flopped.
once again he shows all he really cares about it money. Exploiting tired movie titles didn't work so now he tries exploiting tired singers, which won't work. The worst example of everything that has been wrong with the genre for a long time.
Is she a tired singer? I don't feel like she is one.

No. Her last album was her breakthrough album and this one is receiving similar projected sales figures and better reviews.
okay whew, i was gonna say i thought her first two albums both debuted at number one. It would be a little "tired" if, say, he tried to get a single on a Britney Spears album. Ariana Grande makes perfect sense for him given she appeared in a show of his.
