Tamia competed in singing and dancing competitions throughout her childhood. In 1994, after signing a development deal with Warner Bros Records, she was invited by veteran producer Quincy Jones to appear on his album Q's Jook Joint, which earned her Grammy Award nominations for their collaboration on ‘You Put a Move on My Heart’ and ‘Slow Jams’.
In 1998, she released her self-titled debut album and then followed it with a series of successful Elektra Records releases, including A Nu Day (2000) and More (2004). Her hit singles from these albums include ‘So Into You’, ‘Stranger in My House’ and ‘Imagination’, as well as collaborations ‘Into You’, ‘Missing You’ and ‘Spend My Life with You’.
Some of her other albums include Between Friends (2006), Beautiful Surprise (2012), Love Life (2015) and Passion Like Fire (2018).
