This in-depth look at Invasion of Privacy features a track-by-track breakdown of the album, with an accompanying conversation or essay from a collection of voices about a topic each song addresses. It explores the album's multicultural musical influences, technical elements of production, and the producers on the record. It includes a summation of awards and note the record's chart shattering success--going 5x Platinum while establishing Invasion of Privacy as the longest charting record by a female rapper in history.
