Literally her last two albums but the themes are very dragged. A basic version to those two great albums. The sensual cuts are definitely a little more superior than her retrospective stuff. Maybe if this album was cut down to like 10 or 9 tracks which are something like "Positions" and maybe throw in something different in between and you have another good Ari album.
Ari's thank u, next feels like a stronger and much more cohesive version of Sweetener. The sexier cuts don’t come off as corny — they’re actually enjoyable to listen to. The self-reflection and personal tracks land better, and the lyrical content is written in a way that doesn’t feel “meh” or even a little annoying.
Ariana presents a very drastic change in sound compared to her previous work. This time, she receives help from Pharrell Williams and Max Martin, who contribute some strong material to the LP. However, I found the tracks produced and written by Pharrell to be the least interesting on the project. Ariana’s lyrics are a bit cornier this time around; I wouldn’t say they’re my favorite aspect of the album. Still, I find the midpoint and especially the ending to feature the most ... read more
I'm gonna be honest the deluxe tracks don't really fit here. It's just filler material except for "Knew Better / Forever Boy". This track fits in this album perfectly and it's amazing asf.
Ariana Grande’s Dangerous Woman is an amazing, romantic, and irresistibly cute pop experience. It’s a clear upgrade from her last two projects. Unlike those, it doesn’t feel bland or generic—she really carves out her own style on this album. While some of the more conventional pop elements are still present on the instrumental side, her vocals and lyricism more than make up for it.
While it retains the essence of her debut, it’s more nuanced and features several of her most acclaimed tracks.
This installment feels like a bit of a regression back to the first HEELS HAVE EYES. The beats are simpler and the mid-section songs are noticeably shorter, which leaves parts of the project feeling a little undercooked. The wrestling skits, which take up a sizable chunk of certain tracks, also break the momentum—they make it feel like I’m suddenly listening to a WWE broadcast instead of a record.
That said, this album contains the best track in the entire series: “FREE ... read more
The mixing is better, the beats hit harder, and the performances feel more focused. Overall, it’s a more cohesive continuation of the first HEELS HAVE EYES, even though I do wish a few moments were tightened up a bit more.
Brother Tom Sos, especially when compared to his stronger work on last year’s Westside project, feels weaker here. He was catchy and sharp before, but his appearances on this album don’t quite reach that same level. Gunn also has a few verses that ... read more
Ummm ok?
Like i don't know how to react.
This song is a mess and i really hope it doesn't land on the actual album. The structure is just completely ruined. It's like they threw bro in there for 5 minutes and told him "do your thing" and left the studio. Yeat's feature is just sudden, abrupt and very awkwardly mashed within the song. Not even that, his verse sounds like a "2093" throwaway. It just sounds sooo out of place that i cant ignore it at ... read more
I've wanted to get into her discography for a while because i always liked her hits, and her majestic voice. But sadly i didn't really enjoyed this album that much. It felt like a standard/generic pop album. It sounds dated and not really interesting.
88rising's group effort project might be one of the most inconsistent releases I've heard in a while. The production is bland and tasteless yet sometimes it sounds sweet and ear catching. Some of the artists sound unoriginal and uninteresting biting styles from Lil Yachty, Juice WRLD and Post Malone which was annoying asf. Joji, Rich Brian and Higher Brothers are artists who in a way at this time on this album have established they're sound for sure. They're the most ... read more
I didn't expect to find this to be on the same level as "Some Rap Songs" and i think with time it'll grow on me more. And tbh it feels like a standard Earl album but the samples and his lyricism is definitely on peak level on this project!
