Richmond, Virginia born songbird Tameka Dawn is often described as “a magnetic force that naturally draws admirers to her personable and intimate performances.” Singing while riding in her toddler car seat, Tameka’s mother realized her child’s natural gift at the ripe old age of two. Her God given raw talent has been cultivated through the many life experiences she has had to mold and shape her craft. Her sound is described as unique, smooth and sexy, yet powerful and captivating. Known for her sophistication and class, meek and humble demeanor, beauty, and radiant smile, all fans and admirers say, “the world needs to hear her voice” and “it’s just a matter of time until the world discovers her!"

Tameka is a "gem" amongst the finest jewels. She can do it all, from exacting harmonies to taking the lead and commanding the stage. Tameka is the perfect compliment to the front line as she brings beauty, grace, and unbelievable vocal power.

Inspired by the music of the 70’s and 80’s, Tameka Dawn’s angelic voice echoes of old-school divas like Minnie Riperton and Denise Williams. Her old-school R&B Vibe caters to the likes of both young and old.

Talent and Beauty Scholarship Pageants provided a platform for Tameka to exercise her stage poise, performance and natural vocal abilities. Her pageant experiences began during her elementary school years, continuing on until college. Through the help from parents, her winnings of several titles including Miss Alpha Phi Alpha, and her earnings through summer internships with A&M Records, she completed her education at Purdue University where she earned a degree in Nursing, and pledged the historically black sorority, Delta Sigma Theta.

“I Do", one of the songs from the Debut CD, has received rave reviews and radio airplay by DJ Rita Jones of 89.3 FM Atlanta, who was responsible for breaking the artists India Arie and Erykah Badu in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

Tameka has coined this CD as, "an old age recipe, which contains natural organic ingredients of love relations, and is baked with the new age heat of sensuality that has produced a good blend, one that will bear fruit from old roots. There''s a lot of me on it. I came from the school of hard knocks, where learning was experiencing things the hard way. I''m definitely hoping to show young women how to stay positive and poised, empower each other, love self and those who love them, and follow your dreams, even in the midst of adversity. I believe some people get success by chance, but others are destined for success through the struggle. Dreams Do Come True!"

Tameka continues to pursue her dream toward International notoriety, as she takes the world by storm.
