    This album is phenomenal. Every song is very diffrent yet they all connect with each other in a way. There also is no "filler" type of songs. My favorite song right now is bad decisions.

Every song stands out, there are no fillers within the album, each song is unique and special. Features include future on 'everyday', Nicki minaj on 'side to side', Macy gray on 'leave me lonely' and lil Wayne on 'let me love you'. Ariana and the features have amazing chemistry, they work perfectly together on a track. This album showcases her outstanding vocal ability while showing off her incredible musical production. The production on dangerous woman is flawless. The lyrics have improved a lot, which is good considering Ariana was the lead writer on over 8 songs, more than half of the album. The album includes a song for everyone, it captures every moment and every emotion perfectly. This album is much more mature than Ariana's previous albums, it showcases her true emotions and identity. This album is Grammy worthy and truly amazing. If you haven't already, you should buy it on iTunes or stream it on Spotify and Apple Music, highly recommended.… Expand

    New sound, new rythms, new lyrics, and new woman. I think this is one of the best albums of the year, it's different to her past albums but it keeps a bit of that 2013-2014 Ariana

    This is by far the best album of 2016. Also, Ariana's biggest album yet. The tracks flow one by one perfectly, the enunciation, whistle notes, lyrics all combine into one overwhelming work of art. Dangerous Woman is definetly a Grammy award-worthy masterpiece.

    "Dangerous Woman" is sexier and edgier than any of Ariana Grande's previous releases. It starts with the beautiful ballad "Moonlight," which is one of my personal favourites from the album. The lead single "Dangerous Woman" shows her transformation into a more daring person. "Into You," the second single from the album, is a fun, bouncy track, which is one of the biggest highlights.

Songs I believe that would make potential hits as a single include "Side To Side," "Greedy," "Leave Me Lonely," and "Thinking 'Bout You." I am glad she decided not to go in the direction of "Focus." Don't get me wrong: I enjoyed "Focus," but it seemed like it would've been a better fit if she'd included it on a repackaged version of "My Everything." Overall, "Dangerous Woman" is her strongest release so far.… Expand

    Given that she started out as an actress, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Grande can work convincingly in more than a single mode. But it’s still impressive how fully she inhabits the emotional environment of each song here, even when one directly contradicts another. Even if most of «Dangerous Woman» is co-written, the modish message of empowerment feels honest coming from Grande.Given that she started out as an actress, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Grande can work convincingly in more than a single mode.

    Even though I should give her an 8 or a 9, she seems to have ditched the good girl side of hers and went to the bad, naughty, sexual side. Feels like a transformation, almost.

    ____________
    -Moonlight
    Brings back old Ariana vibes, "yours truly" vibes to be accurate.

    -Dangerous Woman
    THE hit of the hits. The first single of this album and a new era for Ariana

    -Be Alright
    The jam you wanna wake up to. Being sexy in a classy way something like Ariana in general.

    -Into You
    The biggest hit of the album (my opinion) and the catchiest of them all. "a lil bit dangerous but maybe that's what i wanted"

    -Side to Side ( ft. Nicky Minaj)
    The most expected song of the song was the least powerful of all. Nice beat with reggae pinches and nice verses by Nicky, but as a song isn't as strong as others.

    -Let Me Love You (ft. Lil Wayne)
    Ariana grew up.. she evolved.. and that song makes it obvious to see it.
    p.s. Wayne's verse is KILLING IT.

    -Greedy
    Orchestral-Glee vibes with sexiness and disco rythm. Classic Pop lovers will love it.
    Catchy lyrics probably the next "single" to be promoted after Into You.

    -Leave Me Lonely (ft. Macy Gray)
    James Bond realness.
    Macy opens the song.. and she surrenders us to Ariana's hands, for an EPIC verse and chorus.
    Maybe the best vocal performance by Ariana in an album.. since ever.

    -Everyday (ft. Future)
    The sexiest song of the album. This song is a sensual seduction for your ears.

    -Sometimes
    An almost acoustic love song with stunning vocals. If you are not in love.. you will probably fell after this.

    -I Don't Care
    Jazz erotic music. Lyrics deticated to an old love, that will make you feel like you don't care about anymore.

    -Bad Decisions
    This song is sassy and fierce but not in an offending perspective.
    With this happy beat.. the unapologetic lyrics take it to another level.

    -Touch it
    The strongest ballad of the album.
    Broken hearted lyrics and unbelievable chorus that reminds us power ballads of the early 00's.

    -Knew Better / Forever Boy
    The beat is sensual and it sound totally like 2016.
    The R&B vibes are for sure here.. mixing them with some electronic elements.. and a masterpiece is borned. -Thinking Bout You The best was kept for last by Ari. So last but not least the track with the number .15. the greatest song of the album in my opinion. The most powerful lyrics Ariana has ever sung.. relatable AF and the most chills worthy. The repeat button will take fire. Congrats Ariana for the strongest album of your career. The ease of this 10/10 is unprecedented.    … Expand

    Her best album to date. **** Rolling Stone who gave it a 3/5, they're deluded and biased, that's why everyone prefers Billboard. But anyway, back to Ariana, she really outdid herself with this album. Every song is a vocal masterpiece and it's special in their own way. Btw, Moonlight is a outstanding masterpiece.

Dangerous Woman is an album that soars and is meant to top the charts, all while keeping up its sexiness, sass, and confidence. It's hard to choose favourites because basically the whole thing is pop-perfection. What hits the most is the four deluxe tracks that don't sound like they're left-overs in any way. Each track carries out a mission on its own and accomplishes it.

Every track was different, to a point where it surprised you. The one that stand out to me the most was "Greedy", it had a funky upbeat tone to it, like a Bruno Mars song. Another one was "Moonlight", the first track on the album. Ballads usually bore me, but the way Ariana's vocals stand out on the track gave me goose bumps throughout the entire song.

    Primeiramente, quero parabenizar a evolução avassaladora que a Ariana teve em com o passar do tempo e a qualidade de seus álbuns. Dangerous Woman é um álbum milimétricamente bem feito, excelentes composições e os vocais impecáveis. Ariana Grande tende somente a crescer cada vez mais.
    Estou muito orgulhoso de ser fã dessa mulher perigosa!!!

    For sure, Ariana is a Pop/R&B princess. This album is just a reflection of everything she can do (this girl really can sing everything) and, at the same time, is just a start for everything she will conquer in a not far future. Behold Ariana, the Dangerous Woman.

    Ariana has outdone herself with this excellent Pop/R&B album.
    By mixing up multiple genres like pop & reggae and R&B & Pop she created this super diverse album which won't bore you for a single second,

    and ofcourse her vocals are amazing

    From start to finish, it's a spectacular album from Ariana, Starting off with "Moonlight" the transitioning to "Dangerous Woman" I find brilliant as it gives off her innocence in the beginning then her 'dangerous' complexity throughout the album. The production of her hymns, whistles and the instrumentation with guitars, and pianos are stellar.

    Ariana teve uma era conturbada em DW, com o fracasso de Focus, e o recomeço com Dangerous Woman.
    O Álbum tem um sonoridade perfeita, mais peca na ordem das faixa, exemplo: Everyday que poderia facilmente ser substituída por Bad Decisions.
    o Álbum e redondo e atual, Acho que a ariana é uma forte concorrente ao Grammy.

    Not gonna lie this album has more good songs than her previous effort. But what it lacks are signature songs due to which Problem by her remains that signature song. In some songs this album feels like a female version of Zayn's Mind of Mine album.

    I was reading through the comments and saw that "She has not found her genre yet" - I totally disagree with that, her genre is Dance-Pop/R&B. These genres can be found in all songs, These genres can be mixed with Reggae and House but it still has Dance-Pop or R&B vibes.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ariana has proved that with her own talent can make amazing albums independently of the genres. I could say that she was looking something beyond than only music for teenagers, she just left the teenage music like her previous albums, "Yours Truly" and "My Everything", to give one higher step and make an album more mature experimenting with new sounds. The most phenomenal is that we can appreciate her poweful voice in every song (and in every album). Don´t forget the talented artists that participated: the verse of Nicki Minaj in "Side To Side", Lil Wayne in "Let Me Love You"; the rare but special voice of Macy Gray in "Leave Me Lonely".
    Nothing more to say: this album is one of the best albums so far this year.    … Expand

I loved the fact, that she came through the masses and into pop music, even when her material was heavily leaned on traditional R&B music. The flow of the album was very vintage with beautiful ballads. Not even a year after Top 10-Hit ''The Way'', she released her, up to this date, biggest and commercially most successful #1 smash ''Problem'', which officially made Ariana a pop sensation. In the coming months she released even catchier songs as ''Break Free'', a Top 5-Hit, that was influenced by modern electronic-dance music. Also an anthem for the LGBT-Community. Not even a year after her debut album she released her second #1 album ''My Everything'', an international hit. Ariana has gotten two ''Grammy'' Nominations with that heavy pop album, yet I personally felt a huge detachment to Ariana's roots in music, and saw the album as a tool to get into the mainstream audience. Still, it doesn't mean that it was a bad album it was a great pop album with a lot of hits, but it didn't have much variety in it's cohesiveness and sonically it wasn't doing Ariana any favors with her vocals. Her voice is her strength. The album ''My Everything'' got tiresome after the first eight song, as the instruments remained electronic beats with only little changes, especially towards the end of the record. That all leads me to her third studio album ''Dangerous Woman''. Ariana finally seems to have found her place within this industry, which she expresses, more confident than ever, in this record. She is more confident with her sexuality than ever before and the album contains the best music she has done thus far. In 15 tracks, she seems to have redefined her musical roots, which lay in R&B, but she connected her redefining of R&B with a mixture of Pop music. Yet, that is nothing to blame her for, as Pop music have become the foundation of her image in the music industry, as even Madonna, the ''Pop Queen'' herself, called Ariana the ''New Priness of Pop''. The melodies of the album are beautifully working together with Ariana's vocals, something that ''My Everything'' strongly suffered in. She even embraces new genres in this album, as it has touches of soul, funk and reggae (''Leave Me Lonely'', ''Greedy'' and ''Side To Side''). Altogether her third record is truthfully called ''Dangerous Woman'', as she has found herself again, and is one dangerous talent, which her generation, up until she came across, did not have. She has been in the music industry for 3 years now and is a pop princess, who won't leave that fast, as she is just getting started.… Expand

    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.
