    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gran álbum! Dangerous Woman e Into You es una canción atrevida pero al mismo tiempo identificable, además de ser calmada. Be Alight te hace bailar y es muy hermosa. Side to Side es una muy buena descripción de pop en los 2016. Let me Love you y Everyday es todo lo que positions quiso ser y nunca fue, una muy buena canción R&B. Greedy me encantó fue muy simple y bonita, pero al mismo tiempo potente y agradable. Bad Decisions es una canción potente para sentirte atrevido, me gustó su ritmo y la letra me también me encantó. Touch It es buena, cantable, bailable, aunque la siento vacía. Thinking Bout You es un buen cierre, muy melancólico pero al mismo tiempo te da fuerzas.… Expand

    Truly showcased her talent. I feel like it's the album that helped her not be considered an industry plant but an amazing and deserving vocalist.

    This album is a very cool, with fun and very enjoyable songs, and although the lyrics are not the best (I think 'Thank u next' has better writing), I feel that that does not stop it to being a very fresh and sexy album.

    I recommend the songs: 'Side to Side', 'Touch It', 'Be Alright' and 'Into You'

    At the third album, Ariana brings literally everything. Showing a side of her more adult and less little girl, Ariana’s Dangerous Woman had all the things that makes a pop record perfect, the concept, the production and most important: the variety of the songs. With Dangerous Woman you have a journey through the feelings of a powerful and adorable woman. probably Ariana’s best work

With her third studio album, Ariana Grande and her team take a leap forward and finally manage to perfectly reconcile commercial power and disc quality. Electro-pop and trap hits like Side To Side or Everyday immediately capture the consumer's attention, but they get along perfectly with the decidedly more mature and personal atmosphere of tracks like Moonlight, Touch It, Sometimes and Leave Me Lonely, thanks to a work of cohesion and artistic interpretation that was certainly successful. Into You promises to be Grande's best single so far: protagonist of a great commercial success, the song demonstrates a unique production and very good textual attention.
    Ariana Grande is now grown up: her spectacular voice without equal manages to clearly express her strength and confidence as a woman and singer, introducing a stronger artistic personality. The lyrics are generally of a very good standard and accurately interpreted, while the sound perfectly embodies the definition of pop music. The only notable flaws are the lack of a strong unifying concept and the absence of a true songwriter personality.    … Expand

    Para mim esse é (até esse momento) o melhor álbum de ariana!!
    O álbum é muito bom, assim como o instrumental tanto quanto às letras!!
    As pessoas falam que o álbum é ruim por causa do instrumental que é farofa mas é uma farofa que querendo ou não é perfeito!! É difícil ver álbuns bons como esse. Se vc olhar a discografia da ariana vai ver que o Dangerous woman foi a maior evolução dela, e    Para mim esse é (até esse momento) o melhor álbum de ariana!!

    Her best album also in 2021. It's the album where she made some unforgettable hits like "Side to Side", "Into You" and "Dangerous Woman", but also some underrated tracks like "Sometimes" and "I don't care" that are also masterpiece that are better than 95% of all the music today. ARIANA IS LITERALLY THE QUEEN OF POP IN 2010's and 2020's and we all know that.

    Honest, sexy and truly confident. Ariana prove herself as a pop star in this album. She sounds a little bit teenager sometimes, but that's not a real problem. You can feel her empowered, spirituous and free. The final part sounds like a cherry above the cake. The sonority it's good, but nothing that I'll keep listening in repeat.

    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.
