    After so many turns in his life, Grande is born again among the darkness bringing us light and originality. She has her own identity and that she doesn't need something generic from pop to shine. She came to show us that she is the princess of this generation!

    The most mature ariana has ever sounded. Each song flows perfectly with the other and she dives into so many genres and subgenres. It’s so in her element. She was born to do this kind of music, her r&b influenced music comes from the heart and it shows.

    She's been doing the same thing for years. This album sounds just like Sweetener, same old beat, nothing groundbreaking.

    It's a wonderful album! I love the way Nasty makes me feel, it's like being above the clouds while she sings with her melodious voice. Thirty Six is simply perfect, I love every sound and melody of that song now I will be able to sleep and relax with a voice as sweet as the one on 'POV' and dance with the same sweet voice but a little more upbeat with 'Positions and Motive'.

    The most mature and intimate album that Ariana has ever made.

    Definitely a masterpiece and I don't say that just because I'm a fan but bc she rocked again, she is a complete artist. It's
    very gratifying for me to hear that she is fine now after everything she has been through these past years.
    I'm so so proud!

    Love u sm Ari

Spanish Review: sigue los patrones de “thank u, next” y algunas canciones de “Sweetener”, ya Ari nos había dicho que seria un álbum más inclinado al R&B y realmente le sienta bien. Espero escuchar más de esta nueva Ariana, canciones como “pov”, “safety net” y “off the table”. Por otro lado, nos muestra un lado más explicito como por ejemplo tenemos las canciones “34+35” y “nasty”, que podría decir, son las más “nasty” del álbum. “¿puedes quedarte toda la noche? cog**me hasta el amanecer” es una parte de la canción “34+35” y el resto podrán escucharlo por ustedes mismos, a este álbum le doy realmente un 85/100.… Expand

    El sonido es increíble y va de la mano con esa lírica tan peligrosa y mágica a la vez; El Fuerte de Positions esta en su lírica y en el poder curativo que tiene, simplemente me dejo pasmado, es lo que siempre había deseado y por fin Ariana lo hizo.    … Expand

    I feel like this album really shows growth. Everyone expected bubblegum pop, and ballads but she gave such a beautiful mixture of sounds. It’s like the perfect R&B/Pop mixture but so much more as well. The lyrics, the production, the vocals. EVERYTHING.

    I’ve loved all of her albums but I think this one might just be my favorite.

    In her sixth album, Ariana gave us BGM to be played in coronavirus quarantine. The lovey-dovey theme is making the album lovely but combined with her more R&B-based beautiful vocal also with her subpar songwriting makes 'positions' a little bit complicated.

    It's more like Ariana's side project to enrich and broaden her music catalog.

    VERY LITTLE growth and she's STILL using the same poppy trap beats that at times seems repetitive. Capable of so much more, but fails to deliver. 5 good songs out of the 14 and that's because of some of the features.

    pov and obvious are standout tracks that i LOVE but the remaining tracks are too similar in style and sound that the album gets lost in itself

    puro arte, el cambio de sonido de Ariana a R&B y las fusiones con violines, fue hermoso, mis favs: pov, nasty, my hair, 34+35

    An album where Ariana Grande shows that she can do well in Pop and R&B, Positions is an extremely cohesive album with Ariana's participation in the composition of all the songs, the sound is calmer but we can see that Ariana is confident with herself and her sensuality and uses it to inspire herself in the lyrics of these songs, this album literally saved 2020.

    For me this is her best album for sure, this is also a new style for her, maybe trying something new, I love the orchestra on some tracks, the violin and the trap beat were so beautiful on track 34 + 35, all the tracks are rich in detail

    It's the same vibe on full album. She try to make a new sound but it's bored.
    Cute but just it's that.

    This is a gentle and truly magical album that captured me from the first track and didn’t let go until the last one. My favorites are POV, off the table, my hair, safety net. From now on, this is one of the most beloved albums in Ariana’s career on a level with Dangerous Woman 10/10 Awesome

    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.
