    Es increíble como ariana viene tan fuerte desde su exitosa era pasada 'My everything'. Cada track demuestra que ariana viene más madura y lista para demostrar que no necesita de un chico para hacer algo bueno siendo una Mujer peligrosa en la vida diara.

    This album is hands down her best album. None of the tracks are 'bad'. The songwriting was quite good, and the production was also excellent.

    This album is a MASTERPIECE! Every single song in it is perfect! The lyrical content is really good and the different type of songs are equally as good !! Ariana really did a great job with this one.

    Ariana reinvented herself in this album, she shows a grown, independent and feminist side of her and i’m here for that. There’s literally no skips on this album and it’s one of the best eras ever with a lot of iconic singles, performances and videos clips!

    Sexy, bold and empowering with powerhouse vocals. Ariana established herself as a pop stsr who is here to stay for many years and make history. The tracks and lyrics are rebellious, she is not a little girl anymore, and we love her for it, her versatility truly shines im this album.

    Ella e una reina todo lo que hace es arte, este es uno de los mejores álbumes de su carrera sin duda que no recibió el éxito que se merecía aunque su desempeño fue aceptable, con vocales increíbles que solo ella sabe hacer, Gracias ari por este álbum tan artístico...

    Very good album. I had high hype for this album because Ariana Grande had already released several good songs. This album exceeded my expectations.

    Amazing album. Almost everything is perfect. None of these tracks is a skip. Her vocal is one of the best in the industry. Production is good. The lyrical content still needs to improve.
    Moonlight 10/10(cute and perfect intro)
    Dangerous Woman 9/10(MV is not good... the song itself is good but wonderful) Be Alright 9/10(production is good but the melody is not so good) Into You    Amazing album. Almost everything is perfect. None of these tracks is a skip. Her vocal is one of the best in the industry. Production is good. The lyrical content still needs to improve.
    Moonlight 10/10(cute and perfect intro)
    Dangerous Woman 9/10(MV is not good... the song itself is good but wonderful)
    Be Alright 9/10(production is good but the melody is not so good)
    Into You 10/10(pop perfection)
    Side To Side (feat. Nicki Minaj) 9.5/10(great, Nicki's verse improves this track)
    Let Me Love You (feat. Lil Wayne) 8/10(fair, Wayne's verse doesn't work)
    Greedy 9/10(good but sounds like a remix of an old song)
    Leave Me Lonely (feat. Macy Gray) 9.5/10(vocal is incredible but for me Macy sounds too different from Ariana)
    Everyday (feat. Future) 9/10(good track but too commercial, Future sounds not good)
    Sometimes 9.5/10(melody is great and the guitar works perfectly)
    I Don't Care 9.5/10(a huge grower)
    Bad Decisions 9.5/10(love it personally)
    Touch It 10/10(one of the best tracks, deserves much better)
    Knew Better / Forever Boy 9/10(Knew Better is 9.5 and Forever Boy is 8.5)
    Thinking Bout You 10/10(love the production and the vocal)
    She really has the potential to be a diva and create a wonderful album. Although Sweetener is not good enough, Thank u, next will be wonderful.    … Expand

    Undoubtedly, her best album. This album introduces us to a grown-up Grande, being a huge leap forward from “My Everything” and her debut album “Yours Truly”. “Dangerous Woman“ also showcases Ariana’s strongest vocals yet. “Dangerous Woman” is a definite must.

    I consider this album as one of her bests. Every time I think about this album, it always reminded me of a sexy, sassy, and powerful goddess. Most of the songs in this album hits me very well. There are certainly no skips in this album, which is outstanding.

    You are going to Be Alright after listening to this album! Ariana is not merciful for sure! During the tracks she kept giving us great songs and we can not deny that she is a grown woman now (a dangerous one). With bop after bop she creates an amazing cohesive set list, consequently giving us an iconic era.

    Nesse álbum Ariana conseguiu mostrar seu lado mais maduro acompanhando com sua voz impecável, sem contar com a turnê mundial que foi extremamente lendária e emocionante! Uma artista de verdade.

    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.
