Tami On VIBE
Roots: Kingston, Jamaica Moment of Truth:
Signed with Universal Records in 2005 Flavor:
Dancehall pop Cosign: “Her album is about to
come out and bust the world.”—Sean Paul
Tami Chynn seems a bit alarmed to learn that her
villa at Jamaica’s Grand Lido Braco Resort & Spa
overlooks the nude part of the beach. Her team came here
to find picturesque settings for a photo shoot, but
right now she’s not loving the view. “Trust me,”
she says with a laugh, “it’s not pretty.”
Not that the 23-year-old Kingston, Jamaica, native is
uptight, it’s just that she has somewhat higher
standards. After all, this is the same songstress whose
sexy shape was praised in Leftside & Esco’s
dancehall smash “Tuck in Yuh Belly.” She’s toured
as a dancer with Shaggy and collaborated with dancehall
hot boys Sean Paul, Beenie Man, and Assassin. And with
Chynn’s breathlessly sexy single
“Hyperventilating” making the jump into mainstream
radio formats, Universal Records is convinced that
she’s the future of dancehall pop.
Even with phrases like “the next Madonna” and
“kicks Rihanna’s ass” floating about, the former
Tammar Chin manages to remain disarmingly down to earth.
“Growing up in Jamaica, I’m humbled every day,”
she says, tossing the blond hair out of her eyes. “And
that’s no joke. Once you’re old enough to recognize
your surroundings, you’re humbled every day by
what’s going on.”
It’s no surprise then that Chynn reps hard for her
homeland, even though her fair complexion sometimes gets
her mistaken for a tourist. “She’s not a
Jamaican,” she quips about the whispers she sometimes
hears. In her words, Chynn’s a multiracial “mutt”
who defies stereotypes and personifies the Jamaican
national motto, “Out of many one people” (hence the
title of her debut album, Out of Many… One). Chynn’s
true heritage is musical: Her mother, the child of a
white British woman and a black Jamaican man, played
trumpet; her father, who’s mostly Chinese with a bit
of Cherokee, was a drummer. “My family is too mixed up
for me to discriminate,” she says. “Who knows
who’s what and who cares—as if we all don’t
bleed.”
But don’t confuse Chynn with some sort of dancehall
Britney Spears. First of all, she and her talented
sister, Tessanne, are the ones writing tunes like the
enticing “Looky Looky,” which bristles with a
shamelessly catchy hook. Plus, she’s determined to
push herself and her music beyond the usual creative
(and commercial) limits. “Injecting something
different into dancehall isn’t the easiest thing,”
she admits. “But I want to see Jamaican music move out
into the world, even bigger than it is now. And I love
to toe the line. So hopefully, I’ll toe the line all
the way to the top.”
