When are these young R&B female singers gonna go left field with the first single and do something like...a house track or something innovative to kick off an album? Geez! I agree. They could come with something REALLY interesting and innovative...but they just don't seem to want to take that chance. she got what you just described on her myspace now,lol

The song started out all right but a little into it I lost interest. By the end all the screaming had me annoyed.

I think that's the problem with singers who take such a hiatus. Anything more than 2 years, you have to come back hard...not just settling with material that has a little zing to it. It has to be bangin'. That's a requirement. If she thought about all of the female singers who have come out since 2003, you can't settle for less.

When "Escape" is playing, it says LIBERATION 2007 so this must mean that it's gonna be on the new album! And since it's pushed back, this must mean that she's gonna put MORE tracks on the CD!!

The first single should be noteworthy, but good at the same time. Even though she talked about saving the goods on Best of Me for her second LP, I think a clever answer song to Akon's I Wanna Fuck U would be an excellent choice with either Akon or Snoop featuring as a trade-off(in the vein of Ciara's Goodies).

Yeah, "Lock U Down" is really generic. It's not as instant as something like "My Love Is Like...Wo."

The music to the song is horrible. But the lyrics aren't. THERE was only two big female singers that came out as artist during the years 2003-2004. And those female singers were Beyonce & Ciara. A lot of them tempted to release but couldn't stay. Those artist did not last because of what you guys are saying, they were not innovative. When Ciara first came with Goodies I thought she was wack but I knew she had something because of the way she moved. I had the same feeling about Beyonce, but I didn't like CIL, still I knew she would do something, esp. when Bad Boy was released. Plus the rumors of her and Jay helped. That relationship plays a big part in Beyonce's career. Anyway, Mya does not have that. I feel like her label thought that LUD was the Best Of Me of 07. And they fail to realize that Best Of Me did perform well then, so this sure as hell wouldn't perform well now. And if she took her own direction than it's her fault. But in my opinion, Mya's music is only half the problem. The real problem is her lack of personality. Hell, even Christina Milian has that.

Much of the reason Ashanti & especially Beyonce blew up because they gave people plenty to talk about. In Beyonce's case, I think the Bennifer blow out kept her from disclosing her relationship with Jay to the press and so the whispers grew louder and louder, keeping her a hot topic. Mya just doesn't generate as much buzz. Of course you need the hits and promotion, too. Which is why Letoya fell like a rock after drama propelled her so high when her album dropped.

"Escape" sounds like a Janet reject from "the velvet rope." Myas voice wasnt strong enough for the track either.

Mya Do Create A Buzz, She's Just Laid Back With It Though!!!!! Ha, But Does Christina Milian Know How To Sell Records No, Why Cause People Sees Her As A Beyonce Wannabe With Mya's Vocal Stylings Who Will Never Get Taken Seriously!!!!!! Mya Has Lots Of Personality, She's Very Down To Earth And Humble!!!!!! Ashanti Has Fallen Off Big Time, When Was The Last Time She Came Out with Somethin' !!!!!! And Beyonce People Are Gettin Over Her Now, Finally Thanks To J.Hud Big Win At The Oscar!!!! That Was A Big Slap In The Face For Beyonce, That Just Goes To Show Her No Bitch U Don't Deserve All The Recognization And Glory All The Time, Move Over Let Someone Else Have The Spotlight!!!!!! Lock U Down Isn't Genertic It's Refreshin With A Spring Vibe To It!!!!!! It Could Be The Answer To Best Of Me But I Doubt It!!!!!! I Hope Mya Comes Back With A Slap In Everybody's Face!!!!!!!!

Personally I think LUD is a great first single. What Mya is doing isn't standard fare but why is that such a bad thing? LUD has substance and is a breezy track that one can dance to as oppose to something that's driven on just the beat alone and has mind boggling lyrics.

lol...I remember people saying that Mya should push her album back to this year.I'm really wishing she would've put it out in 2006.Looking back on that year,it really could've been her year if only they played they cards right and released LUD as well as the video.I mean her comp was Beyonce with her "Deja Vu" and "Ring the alarm" bs as well as Janet's flops.Now Eve is coming back,50 is coming back,even Kelly Rowland is bringing some steam,Usher,Chris Brown,and even B2K gone make they comeback at the BET awards in June.

Actually the competition right now is much less than last year with every major artist in the business coming out. Mya just doesnt have the steam and NOBODY CARES about her anymore. She cant even hit top 40 at urban. Mya would never have been able to compete with Beyonce, Janet or anyone else who came out last year because they all had singles do better than "Lock u down."

Not really because Ayo was able to do alot better than Lock U Down,and that is because it was alot less competition than then it is now.You are right about Beyonce and Janet having singles do alot better than Lock U Down.But the competiton as a whole was alot less.Now it's Rihanna,Kelly,50 Cent,Eve,Lil'Mama(lol),Ciara.And if she releases her cd in August Chris Brown is going to be everywhere.Plus Alicia Keys cd is coming out this fall as well.So she really could've came out with her ish when it was due in October/November.When I think of 2006 I think of Beyonce and Janet.Beyonce didn't have a hit single until November/December.Oh and let's not forget JHud cd is coming out this year as well.

Woooooooooooow "Walka not a talka" is sounding pretty dope.I love it already!!! But my vote goes to "Ridin",it is more radio friendly and it's showing a more mature side of Mya.Mya is almost thirty and she needs to branch off into more mature music, so the grown and sexy crowed can accept her music.So "Ridin" to me is that song that could do it for her.It screams "Comeback" and "I've grown since" over her other material.
