Details: Amazon.caWanderland is the follow-up to Kelis’ massively successful debut, Kaleidoscope. Easily the most original and exciting thing to happen to R&B in 2000, Kaleidoscope gave new meaning to the word attitude, pairing the unique sci-fi bleeps and beats of production duo The Neptunes, with the big haired singer’s own, very individual, innocent/psychotic persona. Subsequently The Neptunes, under the guise of NERD, released their own spectacular debut album, In Search Of, and worked similar magic for Britney Spears. That both projects bore so many of Kelis’ trade marks, not only illustrated what a major hand the duo had in Kelis’ identity, it meant that her once edgy sound wasn’t edgy anymore. With the same creative backbone, Wanderland, understandably, doesn’t pack the same fresh punch as its predecessor. It is, however, still a phenomenal album
