    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Álbum perfeito. Meu Deus!!! De tirar o fôlego as letras toda essa composição, é incrível de se ouvir esse trabalho PERFEITO. Tem momentos de fragilidade e tem momentos de força e poder. É um misto de emoções incríveis. Amor, ódio, rancor, tristeza, alegria, esperteza, fúria, agilidade, futilidade e etc. Enfim, um álbum perfeito em todos os sentidos dessa palavra.

    O BRASIL TE AMA, ARIANA    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although not as good as its predecessor, sweetener, Thank U Next is a good album with the first two tracks starting the album on a low point, but once NASA plays, the album starts to pick up a pace and become some of the greatest pop music of 2019. However, the decision to have all the singles be the last three tracks could be a risky move for those who may be only listening to the album just for the hits.… Expand

    With thank u, next Ariana showed for a fifth time that she can make great music. With powerful tracks like bad idea or bloodline, emotional songs like ghostin or beautiful chilling songs like imagine this album has a lot to offer. This album is something you don't wanna miss.

    One of the best albums by the vocalist of this generation Ariana Grande. The lyrics are completely insane and special because every song is 100% related to a moment of Ariana’s life. This album’s production is next level and the best example of that is the song bad idea. The vocals are incredible and the vocal range of the album is extense, going from lows as a G3 to whistles that arrivedOne of the best albums by the vocalist of this generation Ariana Grande.

    This album REVOLUTIONIZED 2019. This deserved all of the Grammy Awards that Billie Eilish got. A refined piece of work, showcasing her matured songwriting, within tumultuous events.

    it's an album with so many layers, and if you explore them all you'll see how in reality it often shows a cruel and lonely reality, but you also see pleasure in solitude (and in money lol). it's well produced, well written and the vocals are amazing, its tracks don't even have a skip, I say with certainty that it's the perfect pop album, and the best of ariana grande

    I can safely say that it is the best album of Ariana's career. Very well thought out and crafted. All tracks had the potential to be singles.

    Um album muito bom, inegável que tem uns traps bem genéricos e uns 'yah' desnecessários, mas é um dos melhores projetos de Ariana Grande

    Pontos Positivos: "ghostin", "borderline", "NASA"

    Pontos Negativos: "imagine", produção muito repetitiva nas músicas

    Occasionally, rarely, a record comes along that restores our faith. If this is the future of pop-music, then sign me up.

    thank u, next builds on Sweetener by switching modes of scale. It’s less about looking at the world than being by yourself, more focused on the textures of memory than our actions stemming from it. ... thank u, next is also Ariana’s most stunning vocal album.

    [7 Rings] is a hit, but isn’t actually all that great, using Rodgers and Hammerstein’s My Favourite Things as its sing-song musical base. The rest of the album remains of interest for its evolutions in sound, delivery and attitude.
