The third preview of the album, “BURNITUP!” featuring Missy Elliott, just makes you happy to hear Janet’s voice-with the just as musically missed Missy Elliott, no less-on an uptempo track. The title track successfully conveys the overall theme of the album and Janet’s state of mind-self-assured, truly ready to sing again, and very much in love. era while its J.Cole-featuring remix manages to add a hip-hop twist without it feeling forced, or worse, futile as many guest raps on R&B tracks have proven to be. The rollout for the pop icon’s first album in seven years has been executed ***flawlessly.

I approached Janet Jackson’s Unbreakable with equal parts excitement and trepidation.
