What a GREAT singer !!! So professional, and goes the extra mile. She has a lovely southern voice, like a Tina Turner , that combines rock, blues, Soul- but truthfully she could sing a shopping list and make it sound great !! Good quality recording . A real professional. Recommended !

Great singer, really good pitching and phrasing ! nice to work with .

I gave Tamika a difficult task of coming close to a classic house vocal that i liked, and she did really great. It's a powerful soul voice she has- not breathy. She was fast and helpful to work with . I'll be back !
