Our Take

Once in a blue moon, an artist emerges with a new album that shakes the very foundations of the music industry. Unfortunately, Ariana Grande's "Sweetener" is not one of those albums.

From the opening track, it's clear that Grande is serving up her usual brand of bubblegum pop with a side of vocal acrobatics. The production is slick, the hooks are catchy, and the vocals are as powerful as ever. But there's something missing.

Perhaps it's a sense of urgency, a need to push the boundaries of her sound. Or maybe it's just that Grande's shtick has started to wear a bit thin. Whatever the reason, "Sweetener" feels like a missed opportunity for the pop star to truly leave her mark on the music landscape.

That being said, there are still moments of brilliance on the album. Tracks like "God is a woman" and "no tears left to cry" showcase Grande's undeniable talent and charisma. And the collaborations with artists like Nicki Minaj and Pharrell Williams add some much-needed variety to the mix.

Overall, "Sweetener" is a solid effort from Grande, but it falls short of the high expectations set by her previous work. Here's hoping that she can push herself even further on her next release.

Ariana Grande

Buckle up, music lovers, because we're diving headfirst into the enigmatic world of Ariana Grande. With vocal prowess that could shatter glass and a public persona as intriguing as her high ponytail, this pint-sized pop powerhouse has been shaking up the music scene since her Nickelodeon days. Born in Boca Raton, Florida, Grande burst onto the scene with her debut album "Yours Truly" in 2013, showcasing her impressive range and powerhouse pipes. Since then, she's become a household name with hits like "Problem," "Into You," and the anthemic "Thank U, Next," solidifying her status as a pop princess with a rebellious edge. But don't be fooled by her sweet exterior - Grande is a force to be reckoned with. Whether she's belting out ballads or serving up fiercely feminist bops, she's unapologetically herself in a sea of manufactured pop stars. And let's not forget her iconic whistle tones, which can pierce through even the most jaded music critic's heart. With a string of Grammy nominations and a legion of dedicated fans known as Arianators, Grande has cemented her status as one of the most influential artists of our time. Whether she's breaking records on Spotify or causing a stir on social media, she's a force to be reckoned with in the ever-evolving world of pop music. So, crank up the volume and let Ariana Grande's music wash over you like a wave of pure pop perfection. With her dazzling vocals, infectious hooks, and killer style, she's a force of nature that's impossible to ignore. Ariana Grande - put some respect on her name.
