Vivian Tanya Stephens nació el 2 de julio de 1973 en St. Mary, Jamaica. Desde una edad temprana, Tanya mostró un profundo interés por la música, influenciada por el ambiente cultural y musical de su país natal. Creció en una familia de clase media y se sumergió en los sonidos del reggae y dancehall que llenaban las calles de su comunidad.
A pesar de las dificultades económicas, Tanya se dedicó a su pasión por la música, participando en concursos locales y cantando en reuniones comunitarias. Sus primeras incursiones en la música no fueron fáciles, pero su determinación y talento innato la empujaron a continuar su camino.
En la década de 1990, Tanya Stephens comenzó a ganar atención en la escena musical jamaicana. En 1994, lanzó su primer álbum titulado "Big Things a Gwaan", que la presentó como una nueva voz prometedora en el género. Aunque este primer intento no alcanzó el éxito esperado, no la detuvo.
En 1996, lanzó su álbum "Too Hype", que incluyó éxitos como "Yuh Nuh Ready Fi Dis Yet". Este álbum permitió que el público y los críticos comenzaran a notar a Tanya, gracias a sus letras incisivas y su estilo vocal distintivo.
El gran salto de Tanya Stephens al reconocimiento internacional llegó con el álbum "Gangsta Blues" en 2004. Este disco no solo destacó por sus potentes letras y producción, sino que también mostró una mezcla única de reggae

He laid all his cliches on the table before me
Told me how much he really loved and adored me
and there's no other girl in the world who could make him feel like this
such beautiful lying lips
He played all the right songs all night long just to sway me
and made it clear he didn't just wanna lay me
And he's been married but it's not working out so pretty soon they're gonna split
What beautiful lying lips
go to hell
dont pass, go, you dont collect
go to hell
you better learn to have a little respect
go to hell
i put a curse on your wondering dick
go to hell
or back to your wife, wich ever you pick
go to hell
i'll bet she's waiting for you to come home
go to hell
i'll bet you can't let me answer your phone
go to hell
there's really nothing here for you to get
go to hell
im only lonely not desperat
These are the words I should have said
But instead i let him take me on a trip
with those beautiful lying lips
And as he walked away reality filled me
I knew that very day my conscience would kill me
but so much time had passed sense i last had a chance to kiss
such beautiful lying lips
He made all the wrong moves
He needed to win me
Appeal to every little deamon within me
He semed to sensual to this lonely girl
Said everything i missed
go to hell
dont pass, go, you dont collect
go to hell
you better learn to have a little respect
go to hell
i put a curse on your wondering dick
go to hell
or back to your wife, wich ever you pick
go to hell
i'll bet she's waiting for you to come home
go to hell
i'll bet you can't let me answer your phone
go to hell
there's really nothing here for you to get
go to hell
im only lonely not desperat
These are the words I should have said
But instead i let him take me on a trip
such beautiful lying lips
These are the words I should have said
But instead i let him take me on a trip
with those beautiful lying lips
