    Her best album yet. This is an album that shows and celebrates the difficult process of healing, the ups and the downs. While her work with Pharrell may be controversial as it is different from anything that she has done before, it is not bad but instead extremely refreshing and well executed. She is experimenting with new sounds and showing her range. Sweetener is personal and can be rawHer best album yet. This is an album that shows and celebrates the difficult process of healing, the ups and the downs. While her work with Pharrell may be controversial as it is different from anything that she has done before, it is not bad but instead extremely refreshing and well executed. She is experimenting with new sounds and showing her range. Sweetener is personal and can be raw at times as she tells what she has gone through. Each song while different flows perfectly into the next telling a story. This is not the bubblegum pop album that some people want, it is mature yet fun as she mixes fresh and weird beats with sultry vocals and powerful emotional ballads. Ariana once again shows her dynamic vocal range with lots of high notes and some songs sung with rarely used yet beautiful lower low tones. Forever on repeat.… Expand

    Totalmente diferente e ESTRANHO de tudo que já fez. O estranhamento e o jeito diferenciado poderia ser pra melhor, mas nesse álbum foi pra pior. Som equivocado, que o que parece a cantora aceitou a sonoridade dos produtores(que não tem nada a ver com ela) e não fez nada do que queria!ÁLBUM PÉSSIMO! Pior da carreira!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. sem dúvidas é o trabalho mais diferente da Ariana, ao contrário de seus álbuns anteriores, Sweetener explora outro lado da voz dela, literalmente algo mais "sweet". Grande com este álbum assume riscos em sua carreira ao unir-se com Pharrell Williams que vem de um vasto histórico de canções "fora de sincronia" do que está fazendo sucesso hoje em dia, explorando outras formas, como por exemplo em the light is coming que é totalmente diferente do que está no topo dos charts hoje em dia… Expand

    Ariana perdió ese toque que nunca tuvo para hacer música, este álbum suena como un reciclaje de toda la música pop ya muerta y la actual, que está siendo envenenada por el trap. Como sea, no la culpo, de todos modos no se involucró en su trabajo, como siempre.

    Honestly this is just not good. Zero artists growth from Dangerous Woman - if anything its regressed back to Yours Truly. Her work with Pharrell is very hit and miss and most of them are a miss from me. The highlights are Everytime, Breathing and R.E.M. The worst are TLIC, Sweetener, Blazed and Borderline (which is the very definition of a dull, filler track). Pharrell’s adlibsHonestly this is just not good.

The highlights are Everytime, Breathing and R.E.M. The worst are TLIC, Sweetener, Blazed and Borderline (which is the very definition of a dull, filler track). Pharrell’s adlibs throughout many of the tracks are unnecessary and ruin many of the songs (such as the sheesh in Sweetener). The lyrics on most tracks are cringy and hyper-sexual and there’s zero variation in topic. You could literally swap the verses of one song to any other song on the album and you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. I’ve been a fan of Ari for a long time but this album is just so disappointing. By far her worst album to date.… Expand

    Truly wonderful. Ariana Grande is showing a whole new level of versatility. She is incorporating r&b with a hint of pop and a touch of 90s diva. She is portraying what artist growth is. I'm incredibly proud of her, her work, and this new album. This piece is wonderfully produced and vocally executed well. This is a masterpiece. I love you Ariana!

    The message of the album is very special, but 'No tears left to cry', 'God is a woman' and 'Breathin' are the only commendable tracks.

It's not a work of songs like Side To Side, Bang Bang or Break Free that make us dance and everything, but rather works more with the voice of our diva. People have to understand that the old Ariana is gone, she is in a new phase, a more working, conservative phase.

    I truly believe this is one of the best pop albums of 2018 (we have not had many options to choose from, tbh). Sweetener is really cohesive, uplifting and well produced. Favorite songs are: REM, sweetener, successful and God is a Woman.

    I loved the album, the sweet Ari really knows how to make good songs like breathin and everytime, i just feel that the features songs don't belong the album. but is the most personal ariana's album so far

    Ela com certeza perdeu o medo de sair da caixa e entregar para o público algo que deve ser digerido e não um simples album pop genérico. Um dos melhores trabalhos dela.

    This is something so fresh. It definitely is a grower and will age like a fine wine. The beats and the vibe is so uplifting refreshing peculiar it is everything

    Ariana’s messiest album to date. The production didn’t do her angelic voice any justice.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sem a menor sombra de duvidas, "Sweetener" é o álbum mais pessoal e mais real desde que Ariana entrou na indústria.
    Eu não consigo enxergar outra coisa além de grandeza vindo desse álbum. Em poucos álbuns sentimos ela tão conectada com sí mesmo e tão bem realizada na nova fase.

    I'm not an Ariana fan to begin with, but I was low key looking forward to this album because of how much she promoted it saying how great it is. Plus, I really liked 'no tears left to cry' so I had some hope. but.........

    this album is a flop... I was not impressed to say the least...

    Better luck next time

    With this album we see another space where Ariana gives us a warm, soft, quiet place to take refuge. It's what pop music has needed in recent years and Ari gives it to us in the form of a sweetener.

    Grande’s new sound, the Williams-produced Not-Bangers, only make up half of the album. These standout tracks are interspersed between standard pop tracks. ... That’s not to say that the Bangers on Sweetener are bad--it’s more that they belong in previous era of Grande and they spoil the flow between songs. Sweetener may not be the dawning of a new age for Ariana but it could be a step towards somewhere weird and wonderful.

    Ms. Grande backs up her statements with song-and-dance mastery. ... She’s her own choir, support group and posse. While a few guest vocalists (Mr. Williams, Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott) provide a little grit for contrast, Ms. Grande sails above any fray, past or present. Her aplomb is her triumph.

    An album that coheres in a way other Ariana Grande albums don't, which means Sweetener is something of a double triumph: she's come through a tough time stronger and better than before.
