    Pros: Many

    Cons: None

    I love her song Milkshake. This song has been on my voicemail since the first day I heard it. The lyrics are tight, the beat is bumping, and the video really sells the song. I love Kelis and whoever helped to write and produce this song.

    Kelis has shown how deviating from the norm can get you pegged falsely in her case, as an extraterrestrial being the Neptunes had beamed down from another planet. Maybe the orangehairandbodypaint photo on the cover of Kaleidoscope didn't help. And it's safe to say that none of her contemporaries would've ever thought of screaming something like "I hate you so much right now uuuugh" for the chorus of a debut single. Otherwise, Kelis is as downtoearth as they come; she just doesn't fit the mold of what has been expected in a female RB artist the past few years (or ever). From a commercial standpoint, this has worked to a disadvantage: Wanderland, her second album, wasn't even released in the U.S. by Virgin, even though it was every bit as fresh and rainbowdappled as her debut. Just before slipping completely out of view, the Neptunes set her up with Star Trak and dusted off Wanderland's "Popular Thug" with Pusha T wiped off in favor of new verses from new fiancé Nas for their Clones ...compilation. That set the table for Tasty, which actually involves less Chad and Pharrell, who produce only five tracks this time around; Dame Grease, Dallas Austin, Raphael Saadiq, Rockwilder, and Andre 3000 pick up most of the production duties. Despite all the new assistance, Tasty is formatted much like Kaleidoscope and Wanderland, constantly swinging back and forth between bouncy pop and laidback (not throwback) soul. Just the same, the favorable quality level is another recurring characteristic, with only a couple miscues thwarting perfection (you're hereby advised to skip past "In Public"). Lead single "Milkshake," a coquettish playground tease, is the brightest moment of all; built around blaring synthfunk stun riffs, pitterpatter hand percussion, and a singalong taunt of a chorus, it's every bit as suggestive as Vanity 6's "Nasty Girl," the Mary Jane Girls' "In My House," and Monifah's "Touch It," with all three serving as musical not just lyrical points of reference. On some other planet, at least ten other songs here hit the Top Ten. Regardless of whether or not Kelis is one of us, we clearly don't appreciate her enough. - Andy Kellman, All Music Guide Read more Less
