Nov 27, 2020Ariana is good but this album is just the same in every song and some of them sounds just like others songs of her.
-
Nov 2, 2020The theme of this album is.... hughhhhh Like her vocals. TUN and DW were much more solid albums
-
Oct 30, 2020Honestly my least favorite Ariana album. Everything was a little bit too similar for my taste and it really wasn't as catchy or fun or even as moving as thank you next. In my opinion at least.

Oct 30, 2020It's litteraly her worst album to date. I cannot understand why people rate this above a 3. She's a great singer but this album isn't it :( and I really love her a singer but her last 2 albums are really bad
-
Oct 30, 2020As an old Ariana stan, I am deeply disappointed by this album. While I get that she's taking the R&B route now, that doesn't mean the music has to sound this incredibly dull and boring. There are plenty of other R&B albums out there that are true gems and don't play it this safe and sound this predictable. I'll be waiting for her next record.

Oct 30, 2020The album is as disappointing as starting sex without foreplay and ending without climax.
-
Oct 21, 2022Ariana is just not a writer. Need her to leave that job to people who have talent in that area.
It's okay if you can't write we all know you as a singer. Please don't do this again. -
Nov 16, 2020Siento una combinación extraña entre Thank u next y Yours Truly, es como intentar ser uno de ellos,pero sin llegar a tono.
-
Nov 3, 2020I love Ariana but I feel like I have already heard most of the songs on this album by her. At least pov, My Hair, Love Language & the collaborations with Doja Cat and Ty Dolla $ign are good.
-
Oct 30, 2020Es por lejos el peor álbum de ariana y vaya que me amo los 5 anteriores, la primera canción "shut up" es un completo desorden y el resto se sienten super planas creo que solo son defendibles positions pov y off the table de restos de canciones olvidables ninguna es material para sencillo

Oct 30, 2020Dangerous Woman will forever be her best album, and while I know it isn't necessarily fair to compare, there was something so new and exciting about DW that positions just doesn't have. positions is predictable, many of the songs sound similar and very few stand out. the lyrics are downright cringe-worthy at times. overall, very disappointed.

Oct 30, 2020sweetener remains her best body of work. i mean like..... the collabs are great... but the solo ones... we can all agree that they were......much more of the same
-
Oct 31, 2020this a bad, bad album. isnt comparing to sweetner or anyother jobs by Ariana Grande. its a garbage!
-
Nov 1, 2020I little bit disappointed, I expected more from Ari! But there's still some good songs like 34+35, pov and positions
-
Oct 30, 2020Se nota que ha sido complicado el proceso de reinvención, Grande nos entrega más de lo mismo, hasta cierto punto se torna un álbum aburrido y difícil de escuchar...
-
Oct 31, 2020Extremely disappointed the lyrics are so cringey and the beat is basic...hope she will take her time and comes back with a better record
-
Oct 30, 2020i love Ariana.... but this just wasn't it. i really hope she can't mature musically and show us some growth in her next works. we've been hearing her do the same thing for the last 4 years
-
Oct 30, 2020The album is basic. All of her albums are better than this one. Ariana has a lot of talent so I'm surprised with these results. Shoutout to ”Nasty” the song that shines the most. Sadly, the album ended being the female version of ”Changes”. Hope the next one is more like Dangerous Woman, Thank u next or Sweetener, better albums.
-
Nov 2, 2020I don't like it. Thank you next is much better than Positions. It's my opinion and i love you Ariana sorry
-
Oct 31, 2020Ariana is one of the best vocalist of this century but she doesn't show her talent in this album. İt is boring, same beats, basic lyrics, nothing new...
İt is barely listenable. Howe she tries new things and stops playing "safe" . Even "safe" things is bad now. 2nd worst album of 2020 -

Oct 30, 2020Apesar de um bom desempenho vocal, as canções demonstram pouco brilho e quase nenhum entusiasmo. Salvo exceções, que lembram cover de canções clássicas de Mariah, o frágil conteúdo torna o álbum pouco convidativo a uma nova visita.
-
Oct 30, 2020very underwhelming. poor lyrics. it's sad to see her work freefall from her peak to probably her worst yet.
-
Dec 15, 2020Absolute generic pop trash. What the heck are even some of these lyrics?? What a downgrade from "thank u, next". The beats are catchy, but these lyrics are absolutely awful. Some songs literally sound like a Claire's background music or Justice lol

Oct 31, 2020Disappointing album. After releasing the peak of Ariana's career, Thank U, Next this album felt extremely stale, bored and safe. It felt like a filler album. I expected much more from Ariana. Disliked this album....

Dec 2, 2020Grande 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.
-
Nov 9, 2020Grande 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.
-
Nov 5, 2020With 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.
