    Don’t understand most ratings either 10 or zero. The amount of hate really spoiled this phenomenal body of work. This album is fantastic and shows growth the freedom of interpretation by Ariana. POV just so beautifully composed, it is the best song there is during this challenging times. Thank you Ariana and team for working on this masterpiece for us.

    Era isso que eu queria! Um álbum sólido que introduz a Ariana para uma nova era R&B e não um conjuntos de músicas mainstreaming baseada em tendências que a crítica aclama só por ter potencial pra hit.

    positions, an R&B album that is steeped in sensuality with Ariana's voice, after such a historic album Ariana develops doing what she always wanted to do, the lyrics are deep but it falls into repetition on tracks like nasty, the production is incredible, without a doubt this is Ariana's most elegant album.
    Best tracks: pov, obvious, west side, shut up & my hair

    This is R&B infused trap-pop Album..Beautiful Vocals Harmonizations, Productions and Instrumentals. She doesnt need to prove whimsical lyricism over Authentic lyrics which makes it special. Its how an artist feel and perceived. Its a post-TUN Era. 10/10.

    Com o álbum "Positions", Ariana Grande consegue mostrar ter uma discografia versátil e com vários estilos musicais. A voz de Ariana Grande se encaixa perfeitamente no R&B, aumentando a qualidade do álbum. Sair de um "Thank u, next" para "Positions", reforça que, Grande não lança trabalhos genéricos e esta sempre se reinventando na indústria musical.

Esta vez ha apostado por un disco completamente R&B, con pequeños tonos pop y disco, como ocurre con Positions o Motive feat Doja Cat. Pero lo más apasionante de este album es el viaje que realizas una vez que entras en su mundo de fantasía y sexo. La mayoría de las canciones suenan parecidas, es lo que tiene ser un disco de R&B, pero en cada una de ellas de sumerge en un viaje único con sus notas altas y sus whistle tones, más hábiles que nunca.

    Positions talks love, sexuality, mental health and feelings in general. It’s by far Ariana Grande’s most impressive body of work. It blends R&B with Pop abs Trap elements at moments, which was a very requested by the fans musical choice. The critics are only bashing this album because it’s a woman openly talking about her sexuality and her desires and feelings when involved with her lover.Positions talks love, sexuality, mental health and feelings in general.

Vocally, it is also her best album... loads of whistling and low registers, definitely my favorite! It is a very cohesive album too. It deserves a 10. Check it out if you haven’t yet. Genres I noticed she experimented with: R&B, Pop, Blues, Neo-Soul, Soul.… Expand

    I think this is her best work so far... I think R&B or at least R&B-influenced pop is way more her element than the usual pop we hear from her. Her voice was built for R&B and soul I feel. Her vocals also keep getting better with every album she releases and it's insane how that's still possible because you think she can't get any better than she is now.

She sang an entire chorus in her whistle register at one point... she's insane.
    This is the type of music Ariana needs to make because those pop songs just aren't her style and you can tell since Ariana sounds more comfortable and "in her vibe" on this album and the general public need to adapt to this R&B Ariana whether they like it or not    … Expand

    this album is r&b perfection and the best album created by ariana grande. she is vulnerable in the way she describes her sex life and writes detailed ballads of how she deals with her grief and has healed over time. this album is her best production and lyrics wise and is a box office hit. anyone who rated lower than a 100 or 10 is easily a bitter person who is mad they can’t see theirthis album is r&b perfection and the best album created by ariana grande. she is vulnerable in the way she describes her sex life and writes detailed ballads of how she deals with her grief and has healed over time. this album is her best production and lyrics wise and is a box office hit. anyone who rated lower than a 100 or 10 is easily a bitter person who is mad they can’t see their genitalia over their large ass guts.… Expand

    Não é apenas um album, é um estilo de vida, algo como meu oxigênio, a monalisa da indústria musical, o blueprint da nova geração, O MAIOR.

    Even if there is no potential instant hits at all, Grande's new album is carefully produced, having the knowledge of how to be simple or over-produced when necessary.
    Beautiful harmonies and vocals, showing an impressive result of Ariana's maturity.
    Even that some songs are not her best works (just like magic, as an example), she shows brute and harmonically estable production.

    In this project, we are surprised with incredible vocal habilities, like the beautiful track 'My Hair', presenting nothing less than intire verses of beautiful whistles or even an impressive instrumental production, like 'Love Language'.
    Definitly a grower, being better everytime we listen to it!
    Best tracks: pov, my hair and love language.
    Recommend it!

    Grande is making no effort to be discreet, instead explicitly owning her sexuality—the album is called Positions, after all. The juxtaposition of beautiful violin sounds and risqué lyrics has become one of Grande’s signature sounds, and it suits her well.

    Grande laid bare may well be seen as a stopgap in her canon, using taboo to checkmate her past trauma, but it does pull off the rare feat of at least sounding effortless.

    With little conflict and few psychological insights, Positions zeroes in on the enviable confidence that only pop stars on top of the world and with nothing to lose can afford. It's easy to write it off as empty calories, but pop has always been described in such terms: cake, candy, chocolate, confection. Positions isn't a "sweetener" but pure sugar.
