Rolling Stone writes a review about Ariana Grande's album, My Everything. The beautiful pop star shocked the world with her debut album in 2013 called, Yours Truly. Rolling Stone says this album, "is where the 21-year-old Nickelodeon starlet grows up"(1). Rolling Stone uses automatic ethos because everyone knows who Rolling Stone is and how famous they are with writing reviews, so the fact that Rolling Stone is writing a positive review about Ariana Grande's album just makes life even better for Ariana. "It's a confident, intelligent, brazen pop statement, mixing bubblegum diva vocals with EDM break beats" says Rolling Stone, which brings a pathos appeal to the audience who enjoys diva vocals and EDM break beats. The claims that Rolling Stone make are that Grande's album is the album where she grows up, the only terrible song was "Just a Little Bit of Your Heart" because it simply did not fit her nor her personality, and also that Grande's voice is better than the select pop, diva, r&b stars such as Selena Gomez. There is no logos appeal to be found because even though it is credible and trustworthy, it is especially opinionated. Some of the audience might like the songs Rolling Stones degraded, but considering the credibility, this website's album reviews are rarely wrong. The Rolling Stone gave Grande's album a three and a half out of five which clearly means it was almost perfect. The reason why it was not a perfect score were some of the songs that the Rolling Stones did not find appealing and some of the features who were not a right fit to Ariana.
