"God is a woman" by Ariana Grande - Single Review


   You've erased the quite awful "The Light is Coming" from your mind, right? Good. Moving on.

   To serve as the second official single off upcoming fourth studio album Sweetener, pop starlet Ariana Grande has serviced seductive, trap/electronic-influenced "God is a woman" as the next taste of the anticipated project (out August 17). 

   Featuring her always-impressive falsetto and some welcomed flow skills on the charged and pointed verses, the finished project becomes a flourishing anthem of confidence, femininity and sexual liberation. The track could easily find itself sitting in the top region of the charts just as predecessor "no tears left to cry" did when it debuted and peaked at #3 earlier this year.

   "God is a woman" is a sultry affair, where Grande innocently proclaims that she will be the best her man has ever had. Fearless and straightforward, the artist's playful nature and vocal delivery allows the subject matter to hit an erotic chord with listeners, while never once coming off forced or inappropriate. It is a bedroom jam that showcases class and respect first and foremost. In the end, it falls in line with Grande's previous hits that touched on the same topic. Think "Into You".

   Boasting about how great the carnal experience will be, that her suitor will eventually believe that our savior is indeed female, Grande remains calm, collective and sure of herself throughout the three-minute effort. "I'll tell you all the things you should know, so, baby, take my hand, save your soul, we can make it last, take it slow, hmm, and I can tell that you know I know how I want it," she coos on the second verse. 

   Grande is opening eyes and treating others to an out-of-this-world experience when her lustful desires take control. She could even be forcing lovers to break one of the Ten Commandments: thou shalt have no other gods before me. Oh well. 

   "God is a woman" perfectly blends pop, radio-ready aesthetic with hip-hop edge without alienating her fan base as her recent critically-mediocre collaborations with Nicki Minaj have. That's an impressive feat. Co-written by industry heavyweights Savan Kotecha, Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh (Grande is credited as well), the new effort is destined to be a hit. Memorable, thought-provoking and infectious. 

   Oh, and there's an accompanying music video to go with, featuring the long-rumored Madonna collaboration. Enjoy!
