Someone itt earlier mentioned Mac’s influence on her music, but the first flow/lines on Shut Up really sound like something Mac would do on his last few albums. Love the intro and outro songs on here
That was me. Because there is influence. Ari clearly still listens to Swimming + Circles a lot cuz you can hear traces of it in her recent work.
Synth bass getting abused on this album
Nasty has that Pierre/kanye2018/zaytoven 808

Hmm, I’m not sure it would be easy for someone who dated Mac to listen to those albums a lot but idk wtf do I know u may be right
The Weeknd feature is the best feature but thank u, next/Sweetner are still her best albums.
This album suffers from too many songs sounding similar: in production, cadences and a lot of the melodies we've come to love from Ariana now just sound repetitive and predictable.
There are like 4/5 solid songs on here, but that's really it. Everything else sounds like filler meant to pass the time.
Just on track 3
Is it better than Sweetener or TYN?
Nigga it’s her worst album

Regardless of what they had, they're great albums and Ari has always been a big fan of him, even before they dated.
Like the recurring use of strings on this album, you know who else had used strings before?

Does anyone else like how this is slower than her other abums?
Cause im liking it a lot
