Mya is definitely more successful than Amerie but both of their careers are in the crapper now. Its unfortunately because BOTH had the potential to be much bigger.

And the problem w/ Mya, allegedly, is that she latched onto too many folks too easily, if you catch my drift. Are we talking about Mya's sex life?if we are then JLO and Mariah latching onto too many people didn't affect there career. Mya is rumored to be known in industry circles as the industry jump-off. At least JLO and Mariah were smart enough to latch onto the top dogs in the biz and not just stagehands and video directors. Mya should become a featured hook girl again and brush up on her songwriting.

I love Mya. I really wish people wouldn't focus on her personal life (which she does seem to keep private in the media).
"Liberation" was an excellent album, and definitely one of my favorites of 2007. I'm excited for her upcoming run in "Chicago" (whenever her foot heals), and her next album.
"Ridin" should've been a bigger R&B hit than what it did.

But no Mya is not in an industry circle.IMO industry slutts are suppose to be at the parties where the celebs are.I swear I use to be mad when I never see pics of Mya at any of the award show parties with the IT celebs.So it amazes me how she has this reputation for being an industry ho and I never seen a sextape nor her at any event hugged up over a guy.So what I really wanna know is how do Cassie and Rihanna not get the whorish reputation,and Mya does?!!?

I'm glad Mya doesn't let all this trash talk about her get to her.

Mya is single and pretty. If she does like a lot of boys more power to her her. My only problem was that if you're going to do your thing why not snag someone who can actually help your career? Some of these R&B girls today just don't have a clue. Heard things about Cassie's true origins, but I won't elaborate, not sure if they're true or not.

Some of these R&B girls today just don't have a clue. Heard things about Cassie's true origins, but I won't elaborate, not sure if they're true or not. But see that is probably because these so called power player's wont be hott forever also.Look at how Sisqo,Silkk The Shocker,Blackstreet,Pras,Wyclef all helped her get her feet in the door.And look at how easily they've all fallen off the map.IMO Mya played her cards right.I don't think her career is about being an IT girl.I think she is more into it for the love of it.And imo that is why she lasted 10 years in the business without having to garner many hit's.If you love what you do then why stop? Also it's funny how people keep telling Mya to work with such and such.But she made more of an impact as a soloist than a collaborator.Just look at Best Of Me pt 2 with Jay-Z.You would think that song would have been a smash like Case Of The Ex or even My Love is like woah,and it bombed.Same with Lock U Down.Hell even "Ridin' " and "Ayo" topped "LUD". :o

The chart success of "Best of me" pt 2 doesnt really show the songs actual level of success. Which happened often due to chart rules and if a actual physical single was released or not. If they didnt release a physical single in order to capitalize on album sales, it wasnt going to chart on the Hot 100 or chart very high. That was the case with “Best of me part 2” so that didn’t bomb at all. It’s 2008 I cant go to a club or listen to any DJ mix show on the radio without hearing "yes yall jigga man be ballin, leave chicks pigeon toed, some of them be crawlin." That remix is a offical club anthem and is probably her most played song to date on urban radio.

Mom's Day Gift Guide: GrandmaTuesday, May 6, 2008 Grandmas love to spoil their grandkids, and now it's time to pamper them a little. We've found the greatest gifts for Grandma for every budget. Pop singer Mya says, "My Mom wants a new computer and I saw this great Dell RED desktop last week. $80 of every sale goes to The Global Fund to help fight AIDS in Africa. It looks great and helps those in need. It's the perfect gift."

^^^LMAO at us turning this into a Mya thread.
But yeah SIR it seems like Interscope would have just made the remix the official version after getting so much attention.Why when they re-released FOF they added "Again and Again" and "Free",and not BOM with Jay-Z?very strange...

i talked 2 her on myspace, she is indeed gone from the record label & in talks with another label. She is recording a new album she told me so, she said that she feels overlooked in the industry & when i told her that i believe in her she was very appreciative and has high hopes of changes
