Whoa, Nelly! is the debut album by Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado, released by DreamWorks Records in North America on October 24, 2000. Slant magazine called it “a delightful and refreshing antidote to the army of ‘pop princesses’ and rap-metal bands that had taken over popular music at the turn of the millennium.” The sound of the album was strongly influenced by musicians who had traversed cultures and “the challenge of making heartfelt, emotional music that’s upbeat and hopeful.” One of the songs on this album, “Scared of You” has portions of the song in Portuguese, while “Onde Estás” is entirely in Portuguese, the official language of Portugal, which reflects Furtado’s Portuguese heritage.
