Urban R&B singer with soulful, assured vocals and mature, reflective, often suggestive lyrics.
Although Mya was initially best known as a dancer, she was also musically inclined, learning how to sing and play the violin as a child. When her father -- a professional musician -- learned that his daughter could sing and was serious about a musical career, he shopped around her demo tapes, and Mya eventually signed with Interscope. Two years were spent working on her debut record, released in 1998, and the result was a smooth urban song cycle about love and growing up. Two years later, her more mature second album, Fear of Flying, arrived. Moodring followed in 2003. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
