    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.

    "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

    A superb album. Refined, sophisticated pop. Vocal control is immense. Grande has got a slew of potential top 5's under her sleeve. I personally feel this effort is far more commendable than her debut.

    This album is near perfect. Where as My Everything was an unfocused (but still good) pop record, Grande picks up where she left off from her debut, but with more progression in her sound, maturity and confidence. And of course, that voice of hers is pitch perfect as usual. It's a must listen for sure!

    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

    There is always room for improvement but this album slays! 'Leave Me Lonely' left me speechless along with 'Moonlight'. I feel like Ariana needs to put out more soulful songs like those 2 songs to get a 10/10 from me. I can't wait to see how Ariana will be able to evolve as an artist in the future.

    Ariana Grande has obviously grown since her previous album. This album shows a lot of maturity and artistic growth, wit many catchy hits provided. Although it may not have the same irresistible as My Everything, it still by far surpasses it. Best Songs: DW, Into You, Side to Side, Greedy, Bad Decisions. Worst Songs: Let Me Love You, Leave Me Lonely

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is clearly one of the best albums of 2016, if not the best. It features different sounds and genres in each song, but all are connected with each other. It feels way more mature than every album Ariana has released.

    "Moonlight" is a sweet, feminine ballad and makes up for a great intro. But everything changes when "Dnagerous Woman" comes up. This empowering song justify the album's title; it feels dangerous. After the danger, "Be Alright" comes up and makes us relax, with it's house sounds. "Into You" follows up and with its production, it makes us want to dance non-stop to its beat. Definitely the best song on the album. At least this is what I was thinking of it, until "Side To Side" featuring Nicki Minaj came up. This song features a reggae sound which makes us want to move our head from side to side! A bop! "Let Me Love You" featuring Lil Wayne is a cool song, that works as an intermission from the dance beats. But this won't last too long, because "Greedy" is the next song. A dance-pop track, coming from the late 80's, with a catchy, but unfortunately a little boring, beat is what we need now! With "Leave Me Lonely" featuring Macy Grey, Ariana gives us a taste of what her voice can do and she delivers. "Everyday" featuring Future is a really cool song, but for some ears, the sound might seem a little "hard". For me is pure perfection! "Sometimes" follows up, a nice produced ballad that makes us want to fall asleep, even though if we listen to it a couple of times it may become our favorite. "I Don't Care" seems like a song that the album could have done without it. It's a ballad that is not catchy and boring. With "Bad Decisions" we get to know the **** version of Ariana and it actually is really impressing! "Touch It" features a really mature and different sound, that by the time I heard it, I wondered why this was not selected as the lead single of the album! Definitely worth listening. "Knew Better / Forever Boy" is a really gorgeous track, but I would rather they were two different songs. In order to close this era, Ariana chose "Thinking Bout You" a sweet vocal perfection, that really makes us hungry for new music!

    In a nutshell, "Dangerous Woman" is the best album Ariana has ever put out. Strong enough but yet not out of point, it is a perfection. Worth Buying.    … Expand

    This album is a bomb compared to its predecessor, everything that My Everything tried to be is better and more confident on Dangerous Woman, this multi-genre pop album with some electro-nuances is a phenomenal comeback.

    Truly great pop album. Between the genius of Max Martin and the vocal abilities of Ariana, this is definitely worth checking out. I recommend the following tracks:

    Dangerous Woman
    Into You
    Touch It
    Leave Me Lonely
    Moonlight
    Greedy

    This is her best album so far. We could see the feminine and adulthood her music become. Of all the pop album released this year, hers is one of the most catchy and must listen. She needs more power on her voice though.

    My Top 3;
    1. Leave Me Lonely
    2. Into You
    3. Side to Side

    En Dangerous Woman he escuchadoa una Ariana Grande que desde luego ha avanzado desde aquel irregular y delicado My Everything, y por supuesto estoy delante de uno de los mejores álbumes de pop que he escuchado: variedad de sonidos, sin relleno, buena producción ... pero a pesar de todo Ari sigue siendo ella, y eso es lo que hace a su nuevo álbum un producto sobresaliente.

    Something about this album feels . . . fully formed, for lack of a better word.

Every pop girl has her good girl gone bad moment and that is what this album was for Ariana Grande. First off, the title track "Dangerous Woman" is the best song of her entire career in my opinion. Such an underrated masterpiece. It’s mature and extremely sexy and sounds different from anything she has ever done. It has some influences of rock music here and there and kind of reminds me of a pop rock song from the 80s. "Greedy" is also a highlight on the album. It’s a fun disco pop song that gets you in a good mood every time you listen to it. Another standout track is the extremely underrated "Leave Me Lonely" featuring Macy Gray. It’s a dark R&B/soul song that has a very mysterious vibe to it. Nobody ever talks about this song but it’s so good. The fan favorite and second single "Into You" is also one of my favorites. It’s a sexy dance pop track that incorporates elements of EDM. "Touch It" is also a very good pop track that sounds similar to "Into You".
    "Let Me Love You" predicted the sound that Ariana would later go for as its a mellow R&B and hip-hop track that could’ve also been on her newest album "thank u, next" (2019). The album’s third single "Side to Side" is also a fun pop song with reggae influences. It’s also one of many collaborations between Ariana and Nicki Minaj. The closing track "Thinking Bout You" is a beautiful ending for the album. It’s a great ballad that’s even sadder now that it’s the Love Manchester anthem.

    The only songs on this album that I don’t like are "Moonlight", "I Don’t Care" and "Knew Better / Forever Boy". They are not terrible but pretty boring if you ask me. The underrated "Focus" should’ve replaced one of them. So like I said, "Dangerous Woman" is Ariana's best album. It’s nothing groundbreaking but it’s definitely a fun pop album.

Пройдя путь от звезды молодёжных ситкомов до исполнительницы всеми узнаваемых хитов, её имя приобрело достойный вес в мировом шоу-бизнесе. Так случилось, что данный релиз совпал именно с тем моментом, когда Ариана Гранде не только росла как исполнитель - проходило её становление в качестве уже не просто девушки, а настоящей женщины. И это более отчётливо начинает прослеживаться в лирике её песен, которые стали более откровенными и которые стали нести более интимный подтекст, чем ранее.
    Альбом наполнен огромным количеством треков, претендующих на то, что приобрести популярность у массовой аудитории. Радует и жанровый колорит композиций, с которым так удачно умудряется заигрывать исполнительница. Вокал же, как и ранее, мисс Гранде не подводит. Он точен и ярок, впрочем как и всегда. Конечно, есть и слабые места на пластинке, но слушая её целиком, всё это становится не столь заметным и значительным.
    Погружаясь в творчество такой исполнительницы как Ариана Гранде, вы просто не можете упустить из вида данную работу, которая дарит спектр положительных эмоций и заряжает позитивной энергией от начала и до конца, лишь иногда замедляя темп, чтобы вы сумели передохнуть, перед очередным потенциальным хитом, который мог бы играть на радио и в наши дни.    … 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.

    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.
