Overview Edit

Drama is the debut album from British R&B star Jamelia. The album, a mix of R&B, hip hop, and soul was released on June 26, 2000. The album features four singles including "I Do", "Money" (Jamelia's first top 5 hit), "Call Me" and "Boy Next Door", which just missed out on a UK top 40 place. "Thinking 'Bout You" was originally to be released after "I Do" as the album's second single, however it was replaced with "Money". The version of "Thinking 'Bout You" on this album is in fact a remixed version of the song with the original version scrapped, it originally contained a sample of "Thinking Of You" by Sister Sledge with slightly different lyrics, it can be found on promotional copies of the single, a video was also filmed but never released.

The album peaked at #39 on the UK Albums Chart, being certified as Gold, selling more than 100,000 copies.

4 stars Good Debut
A UK star that never made it to the US. I didn't know the UK could make R&B this good!! This album is better than Mya's Fear of Flying and anything else that came out last year. Best songs are Money, Not With You, Call Me and Boy Next Door, I Do, and One.

1 stars Jamelia is all hype...slight talent
Jamelia is an attractive lady, however, her music is overrated. Her voice is average there is nothing about her vocals that stand out. I don't know what all the hype is about since I can only conclude it's because she is a black BRITISH female singing R&B and her sex appeal is the only thing that can carry her.

If you really want to get your groove on from British artist I reccommend Floetry, Ms Dynamite (reggeaish), or Craig David.
