Unbreakable (Janet Jackson song)

"Unbreakable" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Janet Jackson for her eleventh studio album of the same name. It was co-written and produced by Jackson and her long-time collaborators Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, with additional writing by Thomas Lumpkins and additional production by Tommy McClendon and Dem Jointz. The song debuted on September 3, 2015 on Apple Music's Beats 1 radio station and was made available for digital download on the same day Jackson officially announced the studio album's release date and track list. It was subsequently released to urban contemporary radio on September 29, 2015 and to urban adult contemporary radio on October 5, 2015 as the album's second single.

"Unbreakable" is a mid-tempo R&B song, which instrumentation consists of a thumping bass and a subdued beat, having a soul-sample throughout the track and Jackson's vocals. It starts a cappella, shifting into a smooth, mid-tempo groove, and towards the end, the beat is pulled back for a spoken outro over finger snaps. Lyrically, the song finds Jackson expressing her gratitude towards her loyal fan base and a lover, while also addressing her absence. The song received largely positive reviews from music critics, who praised its groove, her vocals and its harmonies. "Unbreakable" was added to Jackson's 2015–16 Unbreakable World Tour.
