About Positions (album) in brief
Positions is the sixth studio album by American singer Ariana Grande. It was released on October 30, 2020, by Republic Records. The title track was released as the lead single a week before the album’s launch. The album debuted at number one of the US Billboard 200 chart with 174,000 album-equivalent units, which includes 42,000 pure sales. It also reached the top spot in Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom. Doja Cat, the Weeknd and Ty Dolla Sign make guest appearances in the album. It is primarily a R&B and trap-pop album that features elements of hip hop, neo soul, disco, funk, microhouse, electro house, and chamber pop with Grande’s vocals being described as evoking mumble rap. Upon release, the album garnered generally favorable reviews from music critics, who complimented Grande’s vocals but criticized its production and lyrics.
The eleventh track, ‘Love Language,’ is described as a ‘disco-new jack swing’ by Pop-meets-Sugar and sampled by Mac Miller, while ‘One in a Million’ by Aaliyah is credited to ‘West Side of the World’ and ‘Aaliyah.’ ‘My Hair’ has been described as ‘a witty, clever little ditty about reassuring an uneasy lover that it is, indeed, okay to touch’ Grande’s almost frighteningly giant ponytail. It’s also classic horny bait, kicking off like a sexy, swingy, ’70s-esque ‘70s’ do-wop about sex and romance’. ‘Motive’, a collaboration with DojaCat, is a song that ‘tackles the idea of loving after loss head-on and with grace’ ‘Six Thirty’ sees Grande ‘establish language norms and creates a new metaphor paradigm, comparing a person to a very specific hour of the day as represented on a clock’ ‘Off the Table’ features a song by the rapper Mac Miller.
