Not in Kansas Anymore is the second album by Basehead.

Music and lyrics

The music style of Not in Kansas Anymore fuses elements of funk,[1][2] hip hop,[1][2] psychedelic,[1] rock,[2] rhythm and blues[2] and soul.[2]

Reception

Rolling Stone reviewer Danyel Smith called the album "an alternative to the benign bullshit music that floods the chain stores and commercial radio waves."[2] Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that "Although it retains many of the same qualities of their critically acclaimed debut [...] there's nothing that has the same sense of discovery that made Play with Toys an interesting record."[1] The album didn't receive much airplay or sales.[3]
