Drama is the debut album from British R&B star Jamelia. The album, a mix of R&B, hip hop, and soul was released on June 26, 2000. The album features four singles including "I Do", "Money" (Jamelia's first top 5 hit), "Call Me" and "Boy Next Door", which just missed out on a UK top 40 place. Another single "Thinking 'Bout You" was also to be released after "I DO" as the album's second single, however it was cancelled and replaced with "Money". The version of "Thinking 'Bout You" on this album is in fact a remixed version of the song with the original version scrapped, it originally contained a sample of "Thinking Of You" by Sister Sledge with slighty different lyrics, it can be found on promotional copies of the single, a video was also filmed but never released.

The album peaked at #39 on the UK Albums Chart, being certified as Gold, selling more than 100,000 copies.
