Ariana Grande's album is "My Everything" (IMED 1359.001 Post #5)

Ariana Grande, singer-turned-Nickelodeon superstar-turned-bonafide pop star, released her highly anticipated sophomore album, "My Everything" (which went on to debut at number one on the Billboard 200). Grande's musical success hasn't come as a shock - at least to me - because of her because of her already large following, not to mention her beautiful 4-octave vocal range. This is the second album of Ariana's to go number one (an accomplishment most singers with more years in the business can't say they've achieved). Once again, I've decided to review my favorite tracks on the album.

1. 'Be My Baby' (feat. Cashmere Cat) - This sassy, feminine anthem is Ariana's proclamation to any guy that's interested in her. This is her way of saying that a guy has to touch her heart, mind, and soul before even getting a chance to touch her body. If you meet her needs/requirements, you can 'be her baby.'

2. 'Break Your Heart Right Back' (feat. Childish Gambino) - This bold, fearless record is a personal recollection from Ariana's romantic past - it talks about a guy who is unfaithful to his girlfriend with another man, something I've been through myself (and even written songs about)! The song features witty rapper Childish Gambino, who plays the role of Ariana's guy friend breaking the unfortunate news to her. He takes advantage of the clever Diana Ross "I'm Coming Out" sample by putting his own twist on his verse.

3. 'Just A Little Bit of Your Heart' - This song talks about not being someone's only, but loving them so much that you'd be willing to settle for 'just a little bit of their heart.' Written by Harry Styles (of One Direction), this is one of the few ballads on the album. It's beautifully, heart-wrenching to say the least.

4. 'Only 1' - This MJ-esque, old school style record is an exclamation of disbelief. It talks about how unbelievable it is that you could be with someone so perfect. Therefore, you're in disbelief that you're their 'only one.'
