    Stan Twitter can spam the user reviews with zero out of tens all they want, it doesn’t change the fact that this is one of the best albums released this year and showcases Ariana’s versatility with ease

    he album for its self contains a lot of R&B, Soul hits, but it also has some misses. Some of the tracks felt like they were missing something, but the rest of the songs, and the collaborations turned out amazing, the instrumentals and vocals on point. Ariana did a great job with this album

    A risk that paid off! Ariana’s return to form R&B album is flowing with sex, love, and finding yourself.

    Um dos seus melhores álbuns, um trabalho muito maduro e de qualidade, não é inovador, mas fico feliz que ela esteja se encontrando no R&B.

    Great album! She's doing an amazing job finding out her own way. Positions give us a 70's vibe in 2020

    It is simply such a delightful piece of work. Her voice is mesmerizing and she blends genres so beautifully. By far her best work. She reminds us she's a vocalist.

    Positions is probably without a doubt Ariana’s best album. It’s so fresh and timeless, and so Ariana. The vocals she serves are more powerful than anything we’ve ever heard and the the songs are just beautiful. It’s true r&b. It’s Immaculate. Perfection.

    a beautiful and cohesive album that held my attention the whole way through. ariana never fails to outdo herself and it’s no different this time around. it’s everything arianators have been asking for and i’m obsessed with it. the best tracks off the project are pov, just like magic, and six thirty.

    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.
  2. 80
    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.
