Canadian chanteuse Tamia got a taste for the spotlight in her early teens, singing for Quincy Jones on his 1995 album Q'S JOOK JOINT, so it's no surprise that her third album, MORE, finds the vocalist refined and at top form nearly a decade later. Tamia's greatest strength is her understatement; she knows how to convey power during a song without resorting to overstated vocal acrobatics. Even when she bounds over three or more octaves in a single phrase, as on the alluring and sensual title track, she does so with a subtle agility.

Tamia also shows an equal skill with pop ballads and dance numbers. MORE opens with the bouncy, imperious "On My Way," which glides into the aforementioned title track before drifting into a collection of the sweetest of ballads, including the mournful, gentle guitar-pop of "Officially Missing You" and the insistent "Still." Fabolous drapes a gritty rap over the soft touch of "I'm Yours," while Gerald Levert joins her to dip "(They Long to Be) Close to You" in molasses and somehow discover a new angle on the well-covered tune. As these songs prove, Tamia is a powerful soul singer at the top of her game on MORE.
