Teyana Taylor has announced the released date of her next LP. It’s called The Album, and it’s out Friday (June 19) via G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam. The new record will feature guest spots from Erykah Badu, Missy Elliott, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Future, Kehlani, Quavo, Rick Ross, and others. Find Taylor’s Instagram post (which includes The Album’s tracklist) below.
Taylor previously shared the track “How You Want It?” in August along with a video that features Diddy’s son, King Combs. That track, along with the Iman-featuring “Wake Up Love,” appear on The Album.
Taylor’s most recent LP was 2018’s K.T.S.E., which was produced by Kanye West. From that record, she released two star-studded videos for “WTP” and “Issues/Hold On.”
This Juneteenth, Teyana Taylor is bringing generations of black musical artists together on her new LP, The Album. Last night, the R&B singer announced the title, track list, and release date for her first project since 2018’s K.T.S.E. Taylor already dropped videos for the sexy single “How You Want It?” featuring Diddy’s son King Combs back in August 2019 and one for the viral track “Bare Wit Me” in May. The 23-song LP is broken up into five “studios,” labeled A, L, B, U, and M. All but “Studio U” have collaborations, including Rick Ross, Erykah Badu, Quavo, Kehlani, Missy Elliot, and Ms. Lauryn Hill, who was almost left off of the track list. “Tryna figure whoooooooo at da buildin getting fiiiiiiiiiiiired for forgetting to add MS LAURYN HILL to my track listing 🤔 (as I sing you about to lose yo job) lol anyways…….” Taylor wrote in a second, updated Instagram post
The Album isn’t just star-studded. It’s also a family affair. “Wake Up Love” features her husband, former Knicks star Iman Shumpert, who raps under the mononym Iman. And “Come Back to Me” features their 4-year-old daughter, Junie (a nickname for Iman Jr.). In the music video for “Wake Up Love,” Taylor, Iman, and Junie announce that there’s another little Shumpert on the way. Cry your tears of joy while listening to The Album when it drops this Friday, June 19.

The Album features several tracks issued in 2019 and early 2020, including “How You Want It,” “Mornin’,” “Made It,” “Bare Wit Me,” “Wake Up Love” and the Kanye West-produced “We Got Love.”
