Bridgeport, Conn., R&B singer ToshaMakia has that rare combination of plaintive tone and confident sass that helped Brandy rocket to stardom. What's more, ToshaMakia has learned a lesson or two from Alicia Keys on production, setting hot bass lines and skeezy keyboards against a warm vinyl crackle.
