Spice is basically a pop album with a diverse inclusion of musical styles such as dance, R&B, hip hop, soul, rap and funk, which lead some reviewers to called it a pop collection. The lead single, Wannabe is an uptempo pop song with a touch of white hip–hop, rap and dance music. Two of the three ballads of the album: 2 Become 1 and Mama are co–written and produced by Stannard and Rowe, and both feature the use of keyboards, guitars, string arrangements and backing vocals.
