Welcome Buzzjack to the Jamelia -Singles Rate. I have done many rates before but this is my first on the 2000's forum. Jamelia was a big star during the 2000's, she has released 3 studio albums which have collectively spawned 8 UK Top 10 Hits. In addition, Jamelia has won four MOBO Awards, a Q Award and has received nine BRIT Award nominations. She had quite a successful during the early to mid 00's, but she quit her music career & became a successful TV personality. I got the idea to do this after the 'where are they now' post in this forum & decided to take a look back at Jamelia's wonderful if rather short discography & I urge you guys to do the same.

Here are the Rules: listed below =

• Rank every song on this between 0-10
  You can use one 11 & one -1, (but that's optional)
  Half marks are allowed, but please no 10.5's or 0.5's
  The deadline will be around 2 weeks from now, but will extend if needed
  Sit back, revisit & more importantly HAVE FUN!

The Singles:
xx.x I Do
xx.x Money (ft Beenie Man)
xx.x Call Me
xx.x Boy Next Door

xx.x Bout (ft Rah Digga)
xx.x Superstar
xx.x Thank You
xx.x See It in a Boy's Eyes
xx.x DJ
xx.x Stop

xx.x Something About You
xx.x Beware of the Dog
xx.x No More

xx.x Universal Prayer (ft Tiziana Ferro)


There's 14 songs here to rate & have included a Spotify playlist below if you're not familiar with some of them. Note I didn't include 'So High' as it wasn't included on any of her albums & didn't chart & doubt many will know it, but if anyone wants it here then u guys can request it.

Closing date April 26th

I wasn't a huuuge Jamelia fan but she had a consistent discography. Superstar to Beware Of The Dog was a very solid run of singles.

I think I would also tbh!

 

I assume that must have been when Mysterious Girl was pushed as part of a radio campaign? If so it would have been very unlucky to be #2 behind that, much like when P!nk got stuck behind Let's Get Ready To Rhumble

 

 

 

(also now I'm looking at her list of singles she's actually got some decent songs to her name)

ALSO: What would get the Jamelia slot if we have a listen through? Would sync tube implode in some form of paradox?

Is that a reference to her videos being potato quality from memory? Or something else? :P
