AceShowbiz - Official details of Janet Jackson's highly-anticipated "Unbreakable" album have been unveiled. In between shows on her comeback tour, the singer took to her website on Thursday, September 3 to share her forthcoming project's cover art, tracklist and release date.

The album's artwork already floated around the internet before Jackson confirmed it by posting the same image on her site. The 17 new songs featured on the tracklist that also leaked earlier this week all appear on the official list in different order.

Those tracks include the previously released "No Sleeep" featuring J. Cole and a collaboration with Missy Elliott called "Burnitup!" which was debuted live at Jackson's tour kick-off a few days ago. Also making the cut is the title track "Unbreakable" that she shared later on Thursday.

Produced by her longtime collaborators Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, the track is a love letter from Jackson to her supportive fans. "Truth is that I wouldn't be here without the love I stand on/ Anytime I get lost in the world/ You'll always be there," she sings.

Marking Jackson's first album in seven years, "Unbreakable" is available for pre-order on iTunes ahead of its release on October 2. In a statement on her site, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis said of working with the 49-year-old diva, "It's wonderful to be creating again with Janet."

"From songwriting, producing, arranging, singing, dancing, acting, she deftly does it all and truly personifies the word artist," they continued. " 'Unbreakable' is a gift to all of her fans who have steadfastly stood by her. It is a subject for conversation, a plea for compassion, and a call for action from someone who's come a long way, bu's got a long way to go, and has much to say about it. In other words, if you want to know what's on her mind you only have to listen."
