Dangerous Woman // Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande: Dangerous Woman (2016)

Ariana Grande's 3rd album finds the 23-year-old pop star embracing a Sasha Fierce-like alter ego, with the help of Future, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Macy Gray, and others.

Dangerous Woman by Ariana Grande leaves fans shocked and wanting more. On May 20, 2016, Ariana Grande released her third album which she spent a total of 5+ months working on. The album was originally supposed to be titled "Moonlight" and the song "Focus was supposed to be the lead single from the album. Instead, Ariana decided to change the name of the album to Dangerous Woman and Focus was completely removed from the album. It was listed as one of Rolling Stones top 20 best pop albums of 2016 and Fuse's top 20 albums of 2016 and sold 175,000 copies in the first week alone. 

My Opinion: This album by far has to be one of the best albums of 2016! I am a huge fan of Ariana so when this album came out, I made sure I was one of the first to get my hands on a copy. Ariana is really changing up her music style as you can tell from the evolution of her first album "Yours Truly". The singer/songwriter has added a more mature feel to her music and this is her first album to have a parental advisory on it. But again, the album is by far amazing. I love her, and all her music. If you ever get the opportunity to listen to it, go for it! I promise you will not be disappointed.
