![]() Hill, I shouldn’t have to tell you, has fought her own battles. That Teyana teamed-up with Lauryn Hill on “We Got Love,” from The Album, couldn’t be more appropriate. “Been through more than a little bit,” Taylor declared. The record featured “A Rose in Harlem,” one of the best songs of that year. , was kind of forgotten about as it was pushed to the very back of the queue during West’s weekly Wyoming session releases in 2018. ![]() And Taylor's previous album, the strong K.T.S.E. and decided to load his diss track “Elephant in the Room” with a sexist lyric aimed at Taylor for no good reason. I was reminded of the pair when Cyhi the Prynce crashed off G.O.O.D. Both were firestorm emcees who flossed a sexualised swagger decades before Pitchfork named “WAP” song of the year, and both were branded mere dress-up dolls of the powerful men who opened some industry doors for them: for Lil Kim it was The Notorious B.I.G, and in the case of Foxy Brown, Jay-Z. Some very good work followed, but as one of the few women in the stable, Taylor fought to be respected in the same way as her male peers, mirroring what happened to Lil Kim and Foxy Brown as they tried to navigate their careers as women in male crews back in the 1990s. Taylor ended up in Honolulu for the fabled My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy sessions and, in 2012, she left Interscope to sign to West’s G.O.O.D. After a stint on Pharrell’s now defunct Star Trak label that came to very little, she caught a break after meeting Kanye West during the Glow in the Dark Tour in 2008. Taylor has suffered in the similar ways to a lot of women who exist in the male-dominated hip-hop realm. Importantly, the project allowed Taylor to fully assert her artistry and agency after much misogynistic barriers and industry bullshit. But let’s put to one side the quality of the music for a couple of minutes. For me, Taylor’s The Album was the best record of 2020. Instead, I’m complaining that she’s not taken enough period. I should be complaining that an artist who makes such effortlessly great music as Taylor is being taken for granted. It’s easy to imagine a similar sentiment building in the soul of Teyana Taylor, who has been doing heroic things without being granted the acknowledgement she merits. Truth be told, it was probably a veneer for LeBron to get to the final seven words on his speech: “And I want my damn respect too.” The King was tired of those who would deny or denigrate his greatness. The time was right for LeBron to clean out his closet, and so, standing in the centre of the Orlando Bubble as an NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers, he laid out his lengthy list of those in the institute deserving all due appreciation. Clutching the NBA Finals MVP trophy, His Majesty stood for the fourth time at the pinnacle of his domain.
