It’s clear from the jump that “Boomin” will be an interesting ride, sparked by Missy Elliott’s vintage declaration that we’re listening to a Teyana Taylor Exclusive. And while this lineup may have easily lent itself to an up-tempo banger, Taylor opts to pull back for an extensive and sexually charged slow-burner. While all three parties come through in the vocal department, it’s the lush production from seven different contributors — including Taylor herself and longtime Missy Elliott collaborator Timbaland. For those who enjoy the journey as much as the destination, “Boomin” should satiate a variety of different urges — especially if you dim the lights beforehand.

QUOTABLE LYRICS

All a n*** need is a down-ass bitch, pay your bills
Baddies on baddies on baddies on baddies is the way I live
One in Miami, one in Atlanta, and Beverly Hills
Walk through the crib with no panties on, we made a deal
