Ariana Grande debuted her collaboration with Nicki Minaj last weekend. "The Light Is Coming" is included in the singer's Sweetener album.
However, it was only Grande that performed their new song live at the Wango Tango. Prior to her performance, the "No Tears Left to Cry" songstress told the live audience that she was feeling nervous.
Despite how she felt, Grande still managed to give an all-out performance of her new track. Her over two-minute live number opens with the 24-year-old singer walking to the stage and greeting her fans. Minaj breaks into a rap in the recorded version of the track.
Less than one minute into the video, Grande is seen showing off her impressive dance moves while the line, "the light is coming," is uttered multiple times. Grande also combines her singing with her dancing midway through her performance.

Before last weekend's performance, Grande and Minaj teased their collaboration on social media. The "Anaconda" singer posted a video of Grande singing on her Instagram account and called her the "queen of flawless vocals." The singer also said that they are up to something in her caption.
