Bubblegum pop has never been my scene. Never. Ever. My Everything
from Ariana Grande changed my opinion. Not that it's actually bubblegum pop,
but that was what I expected to hear when I got the CD. I was very wrong. The
21-year-old Nickelodeon starlet grows up on this CD. As Rolling Stone says,
"It's a confident, intelligent, brazen pop statement, mixing bubblegum
diva vocals with EDM break beats." And I do like EDM. Her voice is
haunting, almost like Maria Carey, but not quite. A bit of Selena Gomez, Kary
Perry, but better. The songs "Problem", and the shimmy shake
"Bang Bang" are my favourites. The CD feature guest appearances from
A$AP Ferg, Big Sean, Cashmere Cat, Childish Gambino, Iggy Azalea, The Weeknd,
and Zedd. Not a bad release at all. Actually quite enjoyable.
