True, this album is more mature which is what I wanted from her. But I would still put both Yours Truly and probably Dangerous Woman above it. Sweetener is different and more interesting conceptually than her other efforts, I just can’t find one memorable track on this album that anyone will care about a year from now, and as you said, vocally she didn’t give as much as I would’ve expected. Honestly I think I don’t like the album because I can tell that she got torn between growing musically and appeasing her teenage fans and the balance was off-putting for me. I feel like If you’re going to mature your sound, you need to be all in.
