Considered to be Jackson's most mature recording, it is regarded as a template for pop artists transitioning to a darker or rebellious sound and as a precursor to the development of alternative R&B. Its composition fuses various genres, including pop, R&B, trip hop, folk, jazz, rock and electronic music. Songs on the album also include British violinist Vanessa-Mae, Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell and American rapper Q-Tip as featured artists. The record was co-written and co-produced by Jackson, her then-husband René Elizondo Jr., Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, with additional contributions by various songwriters. Its incorporation of social issues regarding sexual orientation and combating homophobia also established her reputation as a gay icon and received the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Music. Due to its sexually explicit content, the album reinforced Jackson's public image as a sex symbol and as one of the most erotic vocalists of the 1990s. It also encompasses themes of sexuality, including BDSM, sexual orientation and same-sex relationships. Its lyrics address subject matter such as depression, self-worth, social networking, and domestic violence. Its title is a metaphor for emotional boundaries, as well as an allusion to an individual's need to feel special.
