Tamia

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BHip hopRhythm and blues

Tamia is a Contemporary R&B and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches Rhythm and blues. Their sound grew out of Johnta Austin, Deborah Cox, Dangerously in Love 2, Quincy Jones and Kelly Price. Those roots explain a lot about how Tamia arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Toni Braxton, Joe, Kelly Price, Mary J. Blige and Fantasia, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Denise Julia, Babyface, Barry White, Brandy and Gladys Knight, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 45 connections around Tamia, reaching back through Johnta Austin and forward to Denise Julia.
