Album Notes & Community Reviews

Written and recorded following her marriage and the birth of her first child, the superstar R&B vocalist's fifth album is defined by a triumphant, fiercely empowered perspective. The production ranges from sparse, deeply soulful piano ballads to massive, stadium-ready anthems, prominently featuring collaborations with Frank Ocean, John Legend, and Dr. Dre. The soaring title track became a ubiquitous, culturally defining statement of female resilience and confidence.
