Lacks variety...go for Tasty instead, 3 Feb 2005
As with Kaleidoscope this suffers from having only one production team for the whole album. Outside of their N.E.R.D. material, the Neptunes computer-generated beats are pretty samey, resulting in this album lacking the variety of Kelis' latest, 'Tasty'. Aside from that, though, Kelis has a good voice and 'Little Suzie' is one of my favourite tracks of recent times.

Kelis, 25 Nov 2003
I thought that Kaledoscope had to be one of the best albums in 2000.She had re-invented urban music and changed it to sumthing Fun,Fresh & original With the the guidence of Pharrell Williams no wonder she's one of the best.Although very under-rated as frm the likes of the Beyoncé's & the Ashanti's of this world
Kelis is definatly one of the most Original 1.Intro / Quite funny 10/10
2.Young,Fresh n New/The whole point i brought this i love this song very Original 10/10
3.Flashback/One of my favourites good beat an cool lyrics 10/10
4.Popular Thug/Remixed on the Neptunes Cd with Nas instead this one has Pusher T Frm the clipse i like this but do prefer the Nas one 10/10
5.Daddy/I think this is so good love the beat to it 10/10
6.Scared Money/Its ok not one of the best 9/10
7.Shooting Stars/I love Kelis but this isnt a good song for her 6/10
8.Digital World/I had to play this a couple of times to actually like it but its cool 10/10
9.Perfect Day/Co-Wrote by Gwen Stefani Very rock sounding song not that good either 3/10
10.Easy come.Easy go/Again not a strong point very poor 2/10
11.Junkie/"Im a Junkie,A junkie for ur love" Here ya good a good song to make up for the other 2 above 10/10
12.Get Even/Its ok Good beat to it 7/10
13.Mr.U.F.O Man/I think this song is funky & fresh but very childish 7/10
14.Little Suzie/My bf likes this song the beat is good thats all the lyrics r rubbish 4/10 Overall i would say that Kaledoscope is the better out of the two but Wanderland does have is good points i hope Tasty will be as good as Kaleidoscope Wen its released on December the 9th The single Milkshake is very good

This is Funked up!, 8 Mar 2002
I initially went to buy this album but on skiping through the album at a local store(!) i gave it a miss because i wasn't quite sure. How wrong could I have been. I finally took the plunge last week and bought the album.This album is stylish, sassy and has a whole lot of FUNK ozzing from it. Kelis's last album was a masterpiece and as one of the other reviewers has said this is a definite progression from it. Its showing Kelis in a slightly more mature light.
I would have given this album 5/5 but my only fear is that as gr8 as the neptunes are.Im worried they are getting over exposure and sooner or later people are going to get tired of that britney beat!Kelis you're fine, sophisticated and a credit to the music industry.Im waiting with baited breathe for your next album. don't leave us waiting to late cos i may have to ask for a breath mint!!! ;0)

easy listening, yet pretty much the same, 20 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Wanderland is a good expansion on what Kelis acheived with Kaleidoscope. Tracks to especially look out for are young, fresh and new, and flashback. Of course with the Neptunes twiddling the knobs, it is a guaranteed hit. I really enjoy listening to this album and even though it is highly reminiscent of Kaliedoscope, Kelis has grown up, to a point where some of the album even sounds like jazz.

A re-invention of R'n'B!, 28 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Although Kaleidascope was easily one of the best albums ive ever heard Wanderland comes close!
Its the most different and original thing ive ever listened to and songs such as popular thug just sum up exactly what rnb should be!
Kaleidascope in my opinion is better but i think this comes close second!!!!! Keep up the good work!!

She's back!, 4 Nov 2001
If you loved Kaliedescope then you'll love this too! Kelis is back (with a little help from the Neptunes) and even though this is a bit softer than Kaliedescope it's still got all the trademarks. Kelis sounds as good and in-yer-face as ever, the songs pulsate with attitude and it all fits together nicely. The stand-out track for me is "Perfect Day", a Kelis-style rock anthem which is sure to stick in your head and put a smile on your face. What are you waiting for? Go get it!

She just keeps delivering the GOOD STUFF!, 5 Oct 2001
I absolutely adored Kaleidoscope and this is really more of the same with an even more (if it's possible) polished Neptunes production . Nothing wrong with that, and my personal fave is the new single Young, Fresh 'N New with its great mix of guitar and cutting beats. Elsewhere, Popular Thug and Mr UFO Man are prime Kelis tracks, and her voice is still as soulful and perfect as ever. Unlike a lot of R'N'B and soul album, there's hardly any filler and all of the songs stand out on their own. All in all, a great album.
