"Love. Angel. Music. Baby" is the debut solo album by the American pop and rock singer Gwen Stefani, released by Interscope Records in November 2004. The album originally began as a small side project for the No Doubt frontwoman, but grew into a large production with numerous collaborations and producers.
The album was designed as an updated version of a 1980s music record, and was influenced by artists such as early Madonna, New Order, Cyndi Lauper, Depeche Mode, The Cure, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, Debbie Deb and Club Nouveau. Most of the songs on the record focus on fashion and wealth. The album introduced the "Harajuku Girls", four backup dancers who dress in Stefani's interpretation of the youth fashion trends of Harajuku, a district in Tokyo.
"L.A.M.B." debuted to mixed reviews from contemporary music critics, receiving criticism due to its many collaborations and superficial lyrical content. The album yielded six singles and had high sales, going multi-platinum in several countries, and selling seven million copies. It earned Stefani several Grammy Award nominations in 2005 and 2006.
