New Ariana Grande Album

American singer Ariana Grande just released a new album. It's her 6th studio album and is called Positions. It was a surprise to many that she was bringing out a new one! She made the announcement only 2 weeks before the release.

Positions was released on 30th October and consists of 14 tracks. The lead single is also called positions (written in lower case) and came out on 23rd October, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. It's currently No. 1 in the UK as well. The 2nd single 34 + 35 was released the same day as the album. pov has also charted.

Positions is a good album, similar to Ariana's previous releases. Good R'n'B songs with pop, trap and hip hop elements. My favourite tracks are positions, 34 + 35, off the table (with The Weeknd), safety net (featuring Ty Dolla $ign) and nasty. motive which features Doja Cat  , six thirty and west side are is growing on me as well.

So here are my fave songs. Most are audios, but I will update the post as and when there are any music or lyric videos.

Note: Most of the song titles are lower case. and some of the songs are explicit. :) 


positions

First up is positions, the title single which came out on 23rd Oct. This is the official music video, starring Ariana as US President!

 


34 + 35

Next is 34 + 35, the second single which was released on 30th October. This is the official lyric video.

 

 Update 17/11/20: The music video for 34 + 35 has just been posted:


 

off the table feat The Weeknd

Back in 2014 (can't believe that was 6 years ago now!) Ariana collaborated with Canadian singer The Weekend on the single Love Me Harder. That's still one of my favourite songs of Ariana's (and I like The Weeknd's part too). For the new album they teamed up again for the track off the table.

This is a slow, laid back duet about questioning whether a relationship is really over.


 


      

safety net feat. Ty Dolla $ign

safety net is about moving forward in a relationship, and features American singer Ty Dolla $ign. My fave part is the chorus.



nasty

Smooth song with a relaxing vibe. I've really been needing songs with a chilled vibe this year!

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
