Kelis - Kaleidopscope album cover | |||||||||||||||
Kaleidoscope is the debut album by R&B artist Kelis, released in 1999.
In the U.S. "Caught out There", was a modest urban radio success and a MTV/BET video hit. The album debuted at number 144 on the Billboard 200 and number 23 in U.S. R&B selling 12,423 copies in the opening week. The album has sold just over 249,000 units in the U.S according to Nielsen Soundscan. 'Kaleidoscope' fared better in Europe, where all three singles, "Caught out There", "Good Stuff", and "Get Along with You" were sizable hits. The BPI British music organization certified Kaleidoscope gold (selling over 100,000 copies) in England. Kelis' colorful style in both clothing and hair in the videoclips with bright contrasting colors combining an urban style while maintaining girl power received considerable attention. The exclusively European positive reception was also attributed to the reluctance of her native U.S. to accept Kelis due to her first single "Caught out There" containing a seemingly furious Kelis and the album featuring tracks like "Mafia" about the gangsta culture and "Ghetto Children" about domestic abuse. "Caught out There" managed to provide Kelis with a #52 chart entry in the UK on imports and it was therefore decided to release a single which peaked at #4. "Good Stuff" also proved a modest hit securing a number #19 position in the UK charts. The third and final single from the album, "Get Along with You" was her first and only solo release to miss the top 40, peaking at #51. Track listing: 1. "Intro" 1:55 2. "Good Stuff" 3:52 3.
