SEVENTEEN (December 1996) pg.127 “Tamia” Tamia had been living in L.A. for just three weeks when she went to a major Hollywood party and had a chance to join R&B biggies Luther Vandross and Natalie Cole at the piano for a spontaneous sing-along. Legendary producer Quincy Jones, who happened to be there, signed Tamia and asked her to record the smoky ballad “You Put A Move On My Heart” for his 1995 album, Q’s Jook Joint. The song became a hit. Since then, the 21-year- old Canadian has performed on Oprah and recorded another hit ballad with Brandy, Chaka Khan and Gladys Knight for last summer’s Set It Off soundtrack--and she’s currently a model for the new Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign. In March, Tamia will release her debut solo album that she’s now loading with plenty of “up- tempo jams” in addition to ballads because, she says,”I want people to know that I’m young.” --Susan Kaplow
