It's a gorgeous intro, and put there perhaps to remind listeners that the 24-year-old vocalist from Windsor, Canada can sing like nobody's business--when given the opportunity. Unfortunately, most of the tracks on A Nu Day deny Tamia the chance, with ho-hum, practically rote R\u0026amp;B fare produced, surprisingly, by some of the best in the biz. When Missy Elliot brings her production skills to the table on the album's first single, \"Can't Go For That\" (Elliot also produces four other cuts), it's as if the tune's running on automatic, with all of Elliot's stop-start, jerk-heavy rhythms running listlessly beneath a sample of the Hall and Oates song of the same name. \"Tell Me Who\", a collaboration with producer Shep Crawford, fares better, and manages to capture a sassy, straight-up feel, reminiscent of early En Vogue. The album offers a pleasant surprise, however, with a cover of the 1983 Debarge tune, \"Love Me In A Special Way\", on which Tamia works wonders, her sonorous mezzo soprano digging soulfully into the soaring melody. --Sylvia W.
