Re: Tamia's newest album's singles, this was deleted:
"They have yet to cross over to mainstream radio, but it may only be a matter of time before Tamia is a household name."
What would be a more NPOV way of stating these facts? I mean, these two songs aren't really pop hits, but they are moderately successful R&B/urban hits. THAT'S what I was trying to get across with that sentence. Though Tamia has never had a real "pop" success of her own (other than the techno remix of "Stranger In My House"), her popularity has steadily maintained itself and slowly grown through these remixes, guest appearances, duets. For someone who's been around 8 years and only had one real "hit", she hasn't become a flash in the pan or a has-been (like what happened to Mase and how many others over the years...). She's in the perfect position to begin a successful pop crossover. But, so far, it hasn't happened. Any comments from the deleter on how to get all this into the article but not have it come across as POV (I didn't think the above was) would be welcome.
whistle register?? ==
i love tamia im a big fan but i didnt know she can sing in the whistle register. which song does she sing it in? give samples or tell the songs.
Myke, you still need to identify the songs so that others can listen and decide whether you are correct...So far this can be false.
There needs to be reference that Tamia can whistle. Kudeh 20/11/06 12:31
So what is Tamia's highest note in chest and in head? What are the songs and what time into the song? What about You Put A Move On My Heart, At the end she goes "Sugar I knew from the start, you put a move on me, you put a move on my HEAAAARRTT" How high is that note for HEART? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.150.49.154 ( talk) 20:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
The basic biographical information on this page is wrong. Tamia's middle name is Marilyn and she was born in 1975, not 1976. I think when she first came out her label wanted her to appear younger than she was. I found an old magazine article where she was celebrating her "21st" birthday in 1997 but in recent interview and articles she has changed this. She recently celebrated her 32nd birthday.
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
