Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 SCORE : 76 (13 eviews) --------+++++++++---------- POSITVE REVIEWS : 83 Entertainment Weekly May 19, 2016 While the hooks may not be as irresistible as her 2014 double whammy of “Problem” and “Break Free,” Grande compensates by having something meaningful to say with that jaw-dropping voice 80 New Musical Express (NME) May 23, 2016 It’s not only the consistent songwriting clout that elevates this album from recent efforts by Grande’s teen-star peers, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez. Even if most of it is co-written, the modish message of empowerment feels honest coming from Grande. 80 AllMusic May 23, 2016 While some of these cuts work better than others, the range is impressive, as is Grande's measured, assured performance. 80 The Observer (UK) May 22, 2016 Held together by Grande’s skyscraping voice, Dangerous Woman throws a lot at the wall and, brilliantly, most of it sticks. 80 Boston Globe May 19, 2016 The album glides through styles, maintaining a slightly menacing yet sexed-up vibe throughout. 80 Los Angeles Times May 19, 2016 Given that she started out as an actress, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Grande can work convincingly in more than a single mode. But it’s still impressive how fully she inhabits the emotional environment of each song here, even when one directly contradicts another. 76 Pitchfork May 25, 2016 Even if the results are uneven at times. Grande does not need to force any sort of spirit, she is full of it already. She just needs to find the Dangerous Woman within herself and let her break free. 75 Pretty Much Amazing May 23, 2016 Dangerous Woman shouldn’t be taken particularly seriously as any kind of “maturation,” but that it still has some pretty good songs on it. Not counting the bonus tracks, there are only two outright throwaways. 75 The A.V. Club May 20, 2016 Buoyed by this poise, Dangerous Woman possesses more personality than My Everything. It’s also far looser than anything else in Grande’s catalog. 70 Slant Magazine May 20, 2016 Though the album immediately shifts gears with the decidedly more contemporary title track, a sultry waltz in which the singer implores her man to “test [her] limits,” assuring him that, underneath, every 21-century woman is a “bad girl,” there are smart, unexpected nods to yesteryear throughout the remainder of Dangerous Woman. MIXED REVIEWS: 60 Rolling Stone May 20, 2016 Grande may not have settled on a sound, but she's still an outsized, dangerous talent. 60 Spin May 31, 2016 These songs [“Greedy,” “Into You” and “Touch It”], which unite a strong persona--haughty, insatiable, a little manic, really into you--with a vivid pocket version of one style or another, are the core of a swift, heedless pop album, albeit one struggling to emerge from the false notes (“Dangerous Woman”) and rote 2016 obligations. 50 Consequence of Sound May 25, 2016 The pop star is putting out fine records, but it’s hard to escape the feeling that her ludicrous potential remains unfulfilled. http://www.metacritic.com/music/dangerous-woman/ariana-grande The acclaim is real. So proud. "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the publications who made an article about BA when it first came out consider it to be house, even the pop forum users. I gues you are disagreeing to them as well.
