Out today is Teyana Taylor‘s latest release, The Album. The full-length project is a glorious interpretation of what her life is right now as a mother, a wife and, a Black woman. On the intro track, Taylor featured an intimate recording of her home birth of her daughter Junie (she also appears on the album).

Taylor comes out the gates swinging strong from the very beginning. Her vocals are strong, the production is stronger and the 23 tracks are filled with a vengeful spirit. In a way, it’s almost as if Teyana wanted to quiet the naysayers of K.T.S.E. her last album. The singer who has never once shied away from R&B inclinations poured her innate passion for music into The Album. Notable features on the release include Erykah Badu, Missy Elliott, Future, Rick Ross, Quavo and Big Sean.

Teyana has been providing glimpses into The Album for quite some time now. Two new singles that were the first to reach fans in 2019 were “Morning” with Kehlani and “How You Want It” featuring King Combs. Both these tracks resonated with R&B heads and were packed with plenty of sex appeal.
