Oct 30, 2020I expected much more from the album, but I was very disappointed in the same, overwhelmed with the sounds, it is not its best moment, basic!
-
Oct 30, 2020The most boring album of Ariana’s discography and 2020’s albums. Same R&B trash since “Yours truly”, all of the songs sound alike.

Oct 30, 2020Positions is simply art, it's the album where Ariana is showing us what she can do with her voice, get out of her comfort zone and go back to R&B, I love it.
-
Oct 30, 2020so good. this album is a classic in a making, f*** all the critics this is good music, i love just like magic , safety net. its a spicy, sensual album.
-
Oct 30, 2020my favorite album from her, the vocals was just AMAZING. this album literally a growing album, listen to it over and over and you will love it!

Oct 30, 2020Brilhante, honesta com as palavras e mais madura do que nunca! O álbum tem una atmosfera única e sinto que esse é o tipo de música que ela sempre quis fazer.
-
Oct 30, 2020This was overwhelmingly mediocre. Ariana is so talented but if she keeps producing and releasing instant oatmeal-ass albums she’ll be the next Drake.
-
Oct 30, 2020FRACO DEMAIS, inferior a qualquer disco da ari, com exceção do debut, n gostei.
so n vou dar 0 pq e dela -
Oct 30, 2020This album is currently my favorite out of all her other albums. Ariana is definitely maturing and changing her styles From R&B, Blues, Trap, and Pop, this album has a beautiful range with her vocals and styles of music. So love that Ariana is trying new things. LOVE THIS ALBUM.
Favorites: POV, nasty, love language, off the table, my hair, 34+35, and safety net. :) -
Oct 30, 2020it's not just an album it's a masterpiece her best album since dangerous woman that's it
-
Oct 30, 2020Os instrumentais perfeitos, os vocais da ariana excelentes. Um álbum com muita qualidade.
-
Oct 30, 2020Icônico, magnífico, uma obra perfeita entregada com amor, suas letras incríveis, e vocais que nunca tínhamos escutado da Ariana Grande, lembra-me álbuns da Mariah Carey dos anos 90.
-
Oct 30, 2020“positions” is Ariana’s best album. new r & b sounds give the album a special
-
Oct 30, 2020everything on this album is perfect, ariana showed once again that she goes beyond pop. This album shows how she matured, both vocal and personally, i love this
-
Oct 30, 2020positions it's EVERYTHING, it's perfect, the R&B, the feat, the vocal, it's perfect, it's not what we're used to seeing, it's a different good. I liked SO MUCH
-
Oct 30, 2020Same old same old. Empty lyrics, superficial, it feels like her all discography belongs to one album.
-
Oct 30, 2020Sorry but I don’t like this album. It’s full of skips and it’s not for me.
-
Oct 30, 2020the album is, basically, forgettable
really dull and hard to finish, but it has good songs, as my hair -
Oct 30, 2020I'm not a hater. I love her last albums and I really happy that Ariana do whatever she can do with her music. But this album is.. bad, really bad. It's boring, the sounds doesn't feel good or interesting and when it tries to recover, it's too late and stays bad. I'm terribly sorry because I love her and I really want to like this album but no.
-
Oct 30, 2020As an old Ariana stan, I am deeply disappointed by this album. While I get that she's taking the R&B route now, that doesn't mean the music has to sound this incredibly dull and boring. There are plenty of other R&B albums out there that are true gems and don't play it this safe and sound this predictable. I'll be waiting for her next record.
-

Oct 30, 2020A personal album, written and executed with mastery, shows how much Ariana Grande has matured in the industry. Showing his voice technique, the background vocals and harmonies are well performed, which makes the album even better. There is a lot of cohesion on the album, the songs fit together and form the perfect structure for a well made album.
-
Oct 30, 2020Songwriting is absolutely lazy. Production is above average. Many songs in the album have same meaning -- "will you have sex with me?". Nothing special and mediocre at best.
-
Oct 30, 2020I'm totally disappointed. This album is her worst album for sure. Every song sounds exactly the same as the previous one, I think she made this album because she needed to do it for make money, not because she liked the album.
-
Oct 30, 2020the usual rubbish of a boring,overrated "artist"......literally nothing new under the song

Oct 30, 2020An album that is just... forgettable. I used to love her music but I listened to this once and I would be perfectly fine if I never listened to it ever again.
-
Oct 30, 2020
-
Oct 30, 202014 songs that sound exactly the same way, this album is trash, she needs take a break and reinvent herself
-
Oct 30, 2020All sounds so generic except for a couple. Positions was the most basic song out of all though.

Oct 30, 2020really liked it. each song has its own personality and I loved all the features, specially the one with the weeknd. nasty is my favorite track. ariana did that once again!!
-
Oct 30, 2020Me gustaría poder darle un 10 a Ariana, pero desde 2016 no ha sacado nada bueno a excepción de canciones como; ‘No tears left to cry’ ‘breathin’ ‘in my head’ ‘everytime’ entre otras, solo ha demostrado que se conforma con ritmos básicos y planos. Si sigue así, que se vaya despidiendo de su carrera
-
Oct 30, 2020Os vocais e toda harmonia spam como anjos cantando no meu ouvido, os feats só enriqueceram o álbum e tornou ele mais completo. Amei muito Ariana nunca decepciona.
-
Oct 30, 2020Just like magic: the meaning of this album. Ariana Grande gave us a truly amazing project, the tracks are soft and there's something new never seen in the industry before with Ari's personality in each one. Congratulations queen, everything is perfect!
-
Oct 30, 2020no artistic growth whatsoever. u can put any song from this album on tun and people won't be able to tell a difference.
-
Oct 30, 2020I don’t know but after listening to the whole album, I just can’t believe that there is still little to no growth in her whole catalogue sadly. She could’ve done better but this album is actually “okay” there’s no something great about it, it just sounds like a bunch of rejects.
-
Oct 30, 2020Her worst album ever, I thought her collaboration with the weeknd was gonna be more outstanding. So disappointed.
-
Oct 30, 2020This album is so boring, she is trying to make a R&B album, I'm really disappointed
-
Oct 30, 2020Terrible album, lyrics are blank, melody is the same in every song, flop of a album. Mariah wanna be.. its a no from me
-

-
Oct 30, 2020Grande doesn’t disappoint, the best album of the year, you can’t choose your favorite track because they’re all very good.
-
Oct 30, 2020hay que recordar que es un album R&B y que estamos en medio de una pandemia. Es maravilloso el album me encanto.
-
Oct 30, 2020Such a good album, not the best, but it’s part of the transition pop to pop/R&B. The best songs ‘motive’ (with Doja Cat) and ‘my hair’.
-
Oct 30, 2020Jamás pensé que diría esto, pero este ha sido el peor álbum genérico de su carrera, después del impacto de thank u next, se esperaba algo igual de fuerte con sonidos acordé a su voz, pero ha sido una completa decepción.
-
Oct 30, 2020I loved this album and how Ari changed her perspective in view of her previous albums but bringing references and we must not forget to admire the work and love she put on this studio album that is a masterpiece
-
Oct 30, 2020her voice in this album sounds incredible, never heard ariana singing like this before. can’t stop listening to most of the songs in the album.. 10/10

-
Oct 30, 2020this album is such an amazing work of art, the critics ar just wh*te rep*blucans hating a R&B project
-
Oct 30, 2020Ariana has achieved an incredible and heartfelt album. From the attitude with Shut Up to the haunting Off The Table and loving POV, this hits every base. Her sound, production and lyrics have glowed up perfectly and you can really see this is the sound she has always wanted to share with the world. Thank you Ariana, i can’t wait to see what’s next.
-
Oct 30, 2020This is her best album to date. Clearly, its an underrated masterpiece. Thank u, Ariana for saving 2020.
-
Oct 30, 2020Her best album. We were so tired of that same pop stuff. Ariana run the mf pop!
-
Oct 30, 2020her best album! rnb suits her so well! the songs are so good, I like that she tried this new style, hope she will continue
-
Oct 30, 2020very unique style from her, very enjoyable to listen to. everyone who doesn’t like it really lacks flavor
-
Oct 30, 2020a truly masterpiece. everybody say thank u ariana grande for saving 2020 with positions. we couldnt be more grateful
-
Oct 30, 2020a great new sound from grande ! favourites are 34+35, just like magic, love language and the lead single, positions
-
Oct 30, 2020this is one of the best albums i’ve heard. 10/10 would recommend listening to it
-
Oct 30, 2020Amazing and refreshing and beautiful and different, I've been waiting for the longest time for Ariana to make an r&b album
-
Oct 30, 2020It's a impressive R&B album, with influences of ballad and disco music. Bring to us her experiences in life and how she pass through. Looks like she finally find your real acceptance and real love.

-
Oct 30, 2020Dangerous Woman will forever be her best album, and while I know it isn't necessarily fair to compare, there was something so new and exciting about DW that positions just doesn't have. positions is predictable, many of the songs sound similar and very few stand out. the lyrics are downright cringe-worthy at times. overall, very disappointed.
-
Oct 30, 2020Genérico demais, tentou inovar mas entregou arranjos ruins cm apitos de cachorro
-
Oct 30, 2020She wants to recreate what Rihanna did a few years ago, one album per year, only in a basic way, you can see the maturity in the sound but it seems to me that I listen to a song of almost 50 minutes because the whole album sounds like a RnB cliche from the beginning from 00's
sorry ariana -
Oct 30, 2020Yag que quer pop farofa por favor saia daqui e vai ouvir artpop. Ariana perfeita, entregou um r&b gostoso pra c4r4lh0.

-
Oct 30, 2020De nada sirve que contrate miles de escritores y productores cuando su musica sigue siendo Plana y aburrida
-
Oct 30, 2020Muy aburrido, es lo mismo que viene haciendo desde sweetener, se esperaba mucho, no nos dio anda bueno.
-
Oct 30, 2020ariana sis I really don't know what happened and i'm sorry your album is really bad
-
Oct 30, 2020All the album sound the same. There is no good lyrics, no good sounds, not even good feats. Boring
-
Oct 30, 2020I'm so glad Ariana Grande has found her way back to R&B music. Her vocal superpowers really show on this album as well as her lyrical and productive abilities.
-
Oct 30, 2020worst album of the year she should take time and actually make a good album not releasing one every year to stay relevant
-
Oct 30, 2020it's not completely awful, but effortless in a very bad way, a pop album without energy and a r&b album without soul.
-
Oct 30, 2020Her vocals are good but the writing is weak and she seems more interested in making a “sex” type album rather than a meaningful deep one. Having 10-15 producers doesn’t help
-
Oct 30, 2020Bad and just uninspired because she doesnt know how to progress as an artist and only releases music to keep the lights on. sweetener had potential. this does not
-
Oct 30, 2020Really disappointed. Soooooooo boring and such weak lyrics, positions is the only good song of this album
-
Oct 30, 2020Her worst album yet. The lyrics sound like a teenager who’s never actually had sex before but is desperately trying to convince her friends she has so looks she cool.
-
Oct 30, 2020Ariana Grande más manca que nunca, todo el álbum suena a más de lo mismo, mediocre y poco creativo de principio a fin.

Oct 30, 2020The album is boring even when is about sex. Nothing new. It's lame. Disappointed.

Awards & Rankings
-
Dec 2, 2020Grande is making no effort to be discreet, instead explicitly owning her sexuality—the album is called Positions, after all. The juxtaposition of beautiful violin sounds and risqué lyrics has become one of Grande’s signature sounds, and it suits her well.
-
Nov 9, 2020Grande laid bare may well be seen as a stopgap in her canon, using taboo to checkmate her past trauma, but it does pull off the rare feat of at least sounding effortless.
-
Nov 5, 2020With little conflict and few psychological insights, Positions zeroes in on the enviable confidence that only pop stars on top of the world and with nothing to lose can afford. It's easy to write it off as empty calories, but pop has always been described in such terms: cake, candy, chocolate, confection. Positions isn't a "sweetener" but pure sugar.
