    This is miles better than her previous album "Sweetener" but some parts of this album feel inauthentic and superficial. Highlights are: "needy", "fake smile", "ghostin" and "in my head". Lows are: "make up", "thank u, next", "7 rings" and "nasa".

    Unbelievably overrated.

    Juvenile musings on a bankrupt world view and lifestyle that ends only in personal delusion and despair. There are some quality, musically uplifting moments (Breathin), some up down bounce and fun, but no amount of sugar and spice can save this album from the vapid, hollow ideology driving it all.

    Miserable, soulless candy..

    Ariana Grande triunfa mais uma vez e perpetua seu reinado no alicerce do pop, ao mesmo tempo se destacando como a maior de sua geração. "Thank U, Next" é um álbum poderoso, coeso e que traz o relato da vida conturbada de uma jovem que se encontra no auge de sua carreira e nas ruínas de sua vida pessoal.

It's popularity wasn't surprising giving how well ariana packages a record and captures a zietgist so wholly. Tge aforementioned is present on the capitalist 'girlboss' sound of music indept "7rings"(possibly her biggest commercial song ) which despite it's confusing use of AAVE , blackfishing or theft of art direction from 2chainz is an achievement. The emotional centerpiece "ghostin" is one of her most personal songs (even sampling it's subject matters song "2003"). It's a insight into grieving an ex who stayed as a friend whilst you've moved on,the confusing politics of that loss and the uncomfortable position it places your partner. This is truly a pop masterpiece with no skip in sight. The catchy AF ''NASA" makes time to oneself an interstellar commitment or the fun "in my head " makes an exercise out of deciphering a lovers intentions &actions . The production deserves it's own mention, it's sprawling quasi-trap with the essential violins/orchestra embellishments. A true magnum opus for sure.… Expand

Being a fan of her since her 2013 debut studio album "Yours Truly" I have been able to see Grande's musical evolution. She began in the music industry as this little girl meant to be a main pop icon but with a lack of confidence and extrovertism. Through the years she has been able to find her own sound with her previous album "Sweetener", released in August 2018. The different sound this album had in comparison with her first three was shocking but at the same time empowering. I really thought Grande had found her sound and voice through American producer Pharrell Williams but, in Thank U Next, sadly, I don't see any evolution but a mix of all her previous songs. Some songs on the album like Needy, Ghostin or the title track are deep, personal and emotional but we can't name this neither the best or the most political album of Grande. Ariana, I wanna know you. I want to know your opinion on politics, on love, on climate change, on life. I see you tweeting about all this topics but I really want to listen to you talking about them in your music.

    Full of the best references of pop music, fashion and beauty. It seems like Ari transformed her love conflicts into a mass cultural product and it sounds so smart and cohesive. Those lyrics so full of the best word games. She is the biggest thing that happened in this decade. The Andy Warhol of our millennial times. She is the future and the fame and she acknowledges that.

    Her fans are revolting and so is this lifeless album. Ariana is fading. Goodbye

    In the rare spots where the production is grating and the writing limp, Grande makes up for it with skill and intuition. The songs that hew closer to pop than hip-hop are the strongest because they show the most confidence, both vocally and musically. That there is even a disparity, however, points to the biggest problem with «thank u, next»: its occasional lack of a clear identity.

    Muy mala letra, malas canciones pegajosas, deberían sancionarla por hacer fracasos horribles

    Don't think it's all that people say, but it isn't all bad. 7 rings is a great song

    Unlike everyone, the album has its totally basic and generic footprint. It appears to be totally commercial, and it does not convey anything rather than having anything to show by Ariana's own career evolution. It has the trap/pop footprint and it sounded in the ears a terrible thing, I can not disregard the fact of flawless vocals and that never lacks on its part, but its production andUnlike everyone, the album has its totally basic and generic footprint.

    Occasionally, rarely, a record comes along that restores our faith. If this is the future of pop-music, then sign me up.

    thank u, next builds on Sweetener by switching modes of scale. It’s less about looking at the world than being by yourself, more focused on the textures of memory than our actions stemming from it. ... thank u, next is also Ariana’s most stunning vocal album.

    [7 Rings] is a hit, but isn’t actually all that great, using Rodgers and Hammerstein’s My Favourite Things as its sing-song musical base. The rest of the album remains of interest for its evolutions in sound, delivery and attitude.
