(a thread)
note: I, many times, have said this is ariana’s “worst” album to date, this is simply not true. What i actually mean is sweetener has more skips than her other albums. (i love all of her albums)
track 1: an angel cried
her best intro. her vocals snapped and
perfect.
rating: 10/10

track 2: blazed
i think pharrel did a great job with this track. personally, i think the instrumentals are a bit repetitive, otherwise the vocal production is good, ari & pharrel sound surprising good together.
rating: 8/10

track 3: the light is coming
This track deserves all the hate it gets. it really bad and yeah. nicki’s verse added nothing to the track. the annoying man in the background is, annoying. the only thing i liked about this track is the chorus.
rating: 4/10

track 4: R.E.M
i have mixed feelings about this track. i love the production, ari sounds good but the song is too long maybe if the song was shorter it would’ve gotten a higher rating.

track 5: God is a woman
I love this track, one of the best from this album. alongside its powerful message, ariana gives us powerful vocals. Ilya never disappoints with his pproduction skills and gives us a smash hit!

track 9: no tears left to cry
hands down the best comeback of this generation (along with we belong together). the production is solid, the lyrics are meaningful and ofc her vocals ate.
