Elevator - A standout on Smoove Jones. The lyrics, the production, etc are golden.

"Coolin'" was the third single and sole video released from the Grammy-nominated Smoove Jones project! Shot in Australia, the video was released on V-Day 2017, the 19th anniversary of Mya's industry debut (It's All About Me was released on V-Day 1998).
This was an instant favorite the moment I heard it! I just love when she uses live instrumentation in her productions, I love the lyric and I love the texture of her voice against the music. Easily one of her strongest offerings as an independent artist and I was pleasantly surprised to see this as the most favored of her indie releases in the rankdown!

Damn. Would have loved to see Coolin' make top 5, but top 10 is still nice! This was a runner-up in one of James' Madness tournaments (I forget which one now) when I submitted it last year, so I had pretty high hopes it would also perform well in her own rankdown with people who were already familiar with it. This song is just too sublime.

There's a 79 point difference between the #10 and #9 so Coolin' would've needed quite a few more boosters to make it any higher.
However, it's not one of my favorites as it is in my bottom 5 (along with another ranker who put it there) while TWELVE of y'all ranked it top-10. And it's arguably biggest loss of the RD so far as FOUR people are losing their #1s...

Coolin' - Sensual, soothing and smooth. Coolin' is definitely the strongest song on Smoove Jones. Its production is stellar.

"My First Night with You" was released in April 1999 as the third single from Mýa's self-titled debut album. It peaked at #28 on both the Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart while making it to #9 on Rhythmic.
However, most 90s R&B fans are probably aware that Deborah Cox originally recorded the song for her self-titled album in 1995 and there ain't no comparison between the two vocally. Granted, I think Mýa did a great job with her version but I was never a big fan of the song in general and I was never really happy with it as a single choice, especially since it was the last single released. However, I'm clearly in the minority and I'd say this was probably the biggest top-10 surprise for me.

Scratch what I said before: #8 is in the middle of the SD pack and only 4 points ahead of #9. Twelve top-10 rankings and only 1 bottom-5 but the bottom-5 ranker pretty much sealed its fate to not make the top-5.

I was truly worried that this would end up winning the RD because Pulse and, as much as I do love the collaboration, I am ecstatic that several other Mýa records won out.
Fun fact: Ron Fair confirmed that Mýa was responsible for the pocket he used on all of the vocal stacks and he likened her precision and skill in recording vocals to Michael Jackson.
