Teyana Taylor's 'The Album' is an ambitious 23-song odyssey. Read our review

soars and sags. It opens with an “Intro” that plays back a recording of her giving birth to her baby daughter as husband Iman Shumpert anxiously calls an operator for assistance. The track sets the album’s themes of personal growth, marital bliss as well as erotic fantasies. “Lowkey” has a nice slow jam/babymaker vibe, and the aforementioned “Morning” track finds her trading raunchy lines alongside Kehlani with barely suppressed glee.

Teyana Taylor is a good singer, capable of shifting between a soft lilt on “Lowkey” and a strident punch on “We Got Love.” But she tends to sound like others, particularly Brandy. She hasn’t quite absorbed her influences into a vocal presence all her own. One gets the sense that her music is just part of a total multimedia package, and it’s her choreography where she truly excels. .

Literal Dookie dreads

There is salami glued to her head. Just saying.

What's the matter? She can't get noticed without growing piles of crap on her head?

One part I disagree with is; she doesn't 'sound like Brandy'.... it's more Jazmine Sullivan lol

Free the octopuses ! 🐙
