    I never got disappointed with her. As a fan I could see the maturity in this new album, I’m proud and glad that she made something that she loves. My favorite on the album is “pov”, a song that shows that she grew up since ghostin, the lyric really got me emotional.

    I used to be a pretty big Ariana fan. When I was 10 I listened to her cover version of "Grenade" and the "Victorious" songs before her debut album was even released. "My Everything" was the first album of hers that I bought and I liked it and I was obsessed with "Dangerous Woman". But then she released the disappointing "Sweetener" and my Ariana phase ended abruptly. I did however loveI used to be a pretty big Ariana fan. When I was 10 I listened to her cover version of "Grenade" and the "Victorious" songs before her debut album was even released. "My Everything" was the first album of hers that I bought and I liked it and I was obsessed with "Dangerous Woman". But then she released the disappointing "Sweetener" and my Ariana phase ended abruptly. I did however love "thank u, next" and I hoped that she would be back on track now but now she released "Positions" and it's a big downgrade from its predecessor. When I heard that it’s a concept album about sex I was excited at first and expected something like Madonna's "Erotica" or Janet Jackson's "Janet". Turns out that my expectations were way too high.

    The album starts off with "shut up". A ridiculously short and ridiculously terrible song. The lyrics and the melody sound like the writers/Ariana did not even try to create a good song. Sonically it reminds me of her debut album "Yours Truly". The worst album opener and one of the worst songs of Ariana's career. Ariana's current single "34+35" is the second song on the album. The lyrics and the song's "creative" title are so in your face it's kind of like when a kid learns about something "bad" and can’t stop talking about it obsessively. It’s kind of tacky. The track is also very generic and boring. "motive", the highly anticipated Doja Cat collaboration, is the third track. It’s one of the few highlights on the album, I really like it. Doja's verse is very good and her and Ariana's voice sound nice together. The song's production is also not as boring and predictable as most of the album's tracks.
    The next song is "just like magic". Is it just me or does the majority of this song sound exactly like "Everyday"? The verses are okay but the monotone chorus ruins it. Next there’s "off the table", a fan favorite and Ariana's second collaboration with The Weeknd. Lyrically the song is very nice but sonically it’s just very boring. Imma stick to "Love Me Harder".
    "six thirty" is the sixth track and I hate it. Will this girl ever leave the tired trap sound alone? This song is painfully generic and I can’t believe that she thought repeating "are you down wassup?" would make a good chorus. NO! I like the song's intro/outro though so that’s something I guess.
    "safety net" featuring Ty Dolla $ign is the seventh song on the album. This one had to grow on me but it finally clicked and now I really really like it. I gotta point out the track's intro as well because it’s heaven. A highlight.
    "my hair" is another fan favorite and I actually started to like this one as well over time. It’s a fun track that incorporates elements of doo-wop. The next song "nasty" was the first song that stood out when I first heard the album. I knew that fans were excited about this one before the album came out so I was curious to see what the hype is all about. It’s a very sexy R&B song and a clear standout track on this record. I don’t have anything to say about "west side". In my opinion that song is just there. Not good, not bad, just very boring and kinda monotonous.
    "love language" gets a very clear no from me. This song is another "Sweetener" mess aka it sounds like Wii music. It’s a very uneventful song and I don’t like the chorus at all. I also don’t know why it needed that outro? I do like the strings (?) that you can hear in the intro and in the chorus. When the title track was released I was very disappointed at first. It wasn’t bad but not as good as her previous lead singles. Not even on the same level as "The Way". The song grew on me but I still don’t think it’s lead single material. I really don’t know what I can say about "obvious". It’s another song that’s just there. The pre-chorus is kinda bad. Definitely a filler. The album ends with the fan favorite "pov" which is currently becoming another "breathin" type of sleeper hit for Ariana. I really like it lyrically and the vocals on this song are beautiful. It’s an alright song overall and a cute outro but not one of my faves. Definitely one of the better songs on this album though.

    This album was another "Sweetener" situation for me. I had high expectations and ended up being very disappointed. It’s not a terrible album but it’s just painfully boring and monotonous. You have to give this album a couple of listens because on my first few spins everything sounded the exact same and I only discovered my highlights after a while. This might be my least favorite Ariana album. "Sweetener" had ridiculously bad lows but its rare highs were much better than the highlights on "Positions". Overall, an okay album that feels very rushed. But if you ever need something that you can play in the background this album is perfect for that.

    an amazing rnb album, really cohesive, amazing lyrics, amazing vocals, especially with The Weeknd in off the table, and in My Hair where she whistled for an entire verse!!

    All the songs sound the same because they’re very short and have intentional poor lyrics. This is just a collection of singles.

    O pior álbum da carreira da Butera, uma mistura de descartes dos seus dois últimos álbuns, além disso ela não disfarçou que fez o álbum pra playlist de Spotify, com músicas tão curtas que nem deveriam ser chamadas de músicas completas. Além disso o álbum é cheio de letras fracas e metáforas sexuais clichês. Enfim Ariana tem uma voz ótima, mas enquanto ela fazer música pra hitar no Spotify.O pior álbum da carreira da Butera, uma mistura de descartes dos seus dois últimos álbuns, além disso ela não disfarçou que fez o álbum pra playlist de Spotify, com músicas tão curtas que nem deveriam ser chamadas de músicas completas.

Ao invés de arte, é isso que vai sair: uma albúm primo do Changes do Justin Bieber, que talvez deve ter cedido descartes pra esse tmb.… Expand

    Positions, Ariana Grande’s 6th studio album came after a streak in her career. 2 successful albums and the predecessor being her biggest to date. With this said, Positions feels a little bit rushed and one of the weakest albums of the year. Still, there are some highlights in this record, such as “pov”, “safety net” and the vocal masterpiece “my hair”.

    A carbon copy of thank you next. Similar sounds. Nothing really new. She should take her time with the next album.

    Es por lejos el peor álbum de ariana y vaya que me amo los 5 anteriores, la primera canción "shut up" es un completo desorden y el resto se sienten super planas creo que solo son defendibles positions pov y off the table de restos de canciones olvidables ninguna es material para sencillo

    I think that ariana is moving away from pop to move towards something else, in short I feel more comfortable and free when it comes to expressing her lyrics without having to make a lot of effort in her voice, however I feel very low about the album I would not say that it is her best work but it's certainly not the worst

    "Ariana Grande se jogou no R&B e abusou de seus incríveis vocais. Demonstrando maturidade e sexualidade, Grande pode ter se perdido em uma extrema horizontalidade musical em seu novo álbum. Com alguns sons que parecem preguiçosos, a faixa-título é a de maior destaque, mas ainda podemos citar motive, parceria com Doja Cat, e pov. Não é um disco ruim, mas talvez não te deixe entusiasmado"Ariana Grande se jogou no R&B e abusou de seus incríveis vocais.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this album is very important for Ariana's career, an album that she is totally safe, open and happy with what she is doing. Each song, melody, vocals sound so good, and seeing her happy with her project is very good, she is reinventing herself more and more. I have no words to describe how much I love this album and the good, light energy it impart!!… Expand

    Ariana is heavily talented but this album seems forgettable to me. It is almost like a background album cause it all sounds almost the same. She has an amazing voice but always over do it to prove it.

    Boring album. It feels like she doesn't take much time on making this album. I know she make an album every year, but quality is important than quantity. Her old albums are thousand times better than this.

    Don’t understand most ratings either 10 or zero. The amount of hate really spoiled this phenomenal body of work. This album is fantastic and shows growth the freedom of interpretation by Ariana. POV just so beautifully composed, it is the best song there is during this challenging times. Thank you Ariana and team for working on this masterpiece for us.

    A bad album, few songs are saved, with so many good albums in his career, Ariana disappointed in this one.

    Grande 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.

    Grande 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.

    With 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.
