    I wanted to like this and have it be more than just generic pop music but i don't and it isn't.

    Playboy look with the bunny ears, Mariah Carey wannabe but overall nothing original to keep your attention.

    Nope. It’s bleh. Seems like she doesn’t care about her image maturing. Same thing over and over. I just don’t like it. Feel like I’m listening to the same song all over with different lyrics.

    This album is a trashy candy pop sound track full of showing off money riches and no depth, sounds pretty generic, and the albums just bad, this might be her worst album ever, I hope those kids understand that this album also sounds identical to her previous album, pretty boring and weird production, Ariana should learn to write her own song instead of using as many ghost writers asThis album is a trashy candy pop sound track full of showing off money riches and no depth, sounds pretty generic, and the albums just bad, this might be her worst album ever, I hope those kids understand that this album also sounds identical to her previous album, pretty boring and weird production, Ariana should learn to write her own song instead of using as many ghost writers as possible, make her fans feel sad and disappointed and I pretty sure, there are nothing unique about Ariana in this album, 7rings is another catchy song but it’s so plain… Expand

    Ariana grande showing off her vocals, what a surprise !!!. Not, seriously, this album isn't good at all, maybe 1 or twice songs, we can see different songs in this album, like Side to Side featuring a rap live leyend, or Let me love you by the only lil wayne, but what we can say about the other part of the album?... **** Pure **** with non-sense.

    No es pegadizo, no tiene buenos ritmos, creo que es uno de los peores álbumes de Ariana, pero hay que aceptar que de cierta forma es bueno, pero para mí gusto, le falta un poco más a Ariana para llegar a triunfar y ser una "Diva del pop" como dicen.

    Her career has gone really bad! She used to sing so good and write good songs but now she soldout! Her vocals are screechy and this album sounds horrible! She's working with d-listers like Lil Wayne and Macy Gray? And Nicki is on her way to the d-list too, so gross! This album is the WORST I have heard ALL YEAR! I hope she goes back to working with Zedd on her next album! He is the bestHer career has gone really bad! She used to sing so good and write good songs but now she soldout!

    Terrible music made in a factory where they strap her face to a machine to change her voices while she sing in it. I heard his single or two and it had very trashy… super annoying voice which is a first class torture device in itself.

    the album is a good one, however still leaves to be desired, as it was expected a more mature Ariana that sobressaisse relative s other teens, but what we see is a continuation of his previous album

    Is a powrfull album where Ariana can show her voice but it isn't a good music style for her.She's becoming a great artist but there's still a long way for her.

    No entiendo porque "Dangerous Woman" tiene tan buena puntuación, es completamente genérico y repetitivo, además de tener una temática sobreexplotada y unas líricas bastante malas.

    Lixo de álbum
    Péssimo, péssimo, péssimo. Sem sombra de dúvidas é um dos piores álbuns que já ouvi. Lembras bobas e infantis, sem conceito, nada de importante pra história.

    Wow. A heartfelt piece of work. Her most heart wrenching album. Ari puts all her feelings into this album

    Although 3 songs in the album, the most popular ones are good and catchy, the rest of the album is quite unispiring...I feel like I heard all these beats and melodies before. But, If you wanna have it as background music in a store for a teens, I guess it's ok.

    she literally wasnt on her right state of mind when she made this, the only good song was the title track, the rest are just pure cringefest that makes you want to rip your hair off.

    THIS is Ariana Grande's best album! Most of the songs are amazing, with some slight duds in between the best songs, but the cover is cool and the singles choices were top notch. I live for the production that unveils the masterpieces of this record!

    She appears to be in the right place creatively, but she just needs to take her own advice and break free.

    These songs [“Greedy,” “Into You” and “Touch It”], which unite a strong persona--haughty, insatiable, a little manic, really into you--with a vivid pocket version of one style or another, are the core of a swift, heedless pop album, albeit one struggling to emerge from the false notes (“Dangerous Woman”) and rote 2016 obligations (Future) of what’s probably an executive-mandated bagginess.

    The pop star is putting out fine records, but it’s hard to escape the feeling that her ludicrous potential remains unfulfilled.
