Review

Teyana Taylor’s third studio album, “The Album,” dropped on June 19, 2020, and it’s a colossal 23-track journey that puts her versatility and creative reign on full display. Split into five distinct sections or “studios,” each part delves into a different emotional landscape. Whether you’re moving to hip-hop beats, funking it up, or grooving with contemporary R&B, there’s something ear-catching for everyone.

Lead singles like “How You Want It?” featuring King Combs and the sultry “Morning” with Kehlani kick things off right. Taylor’s powerhouse vocals really hit home in tracks like “Lose Each Other,” where she serves up soul and depth like no other, with standout guest spots from icons Missy Elliott and Lauryn Hill.

From bumping tracks like “Wake Up Love” with husband Iman Shumpert to introspective jams like “Concrete,” Taylor creates a balance that keeps you hooked. Yeah, some critics might say the 23 tracks are a bit much, or that the production edges on disjointed at times, but Taylor’s growth and boldness can’t be ignored. Releasing it on Juneteenth makes “The Album” resonate beyond just music, tapping into a profound cultural celebration. It’s a fierce testament to Teyana Taylor’s evolving artistry and fearless creativity. - Casey
