POSTED 8/23/07 Mya was dropped at a shelter holding pen overnight...apparently they didn't want the 2 dogs they dropped. She is absolutely beautiful, but VERY scared. For her size she does pull on a leash and is REALLY strong. She can be spooky in a new situation, plays well with the dogs, but does play rough. She barks when playing and weighs between 40-50 lbs. She would do well with an experienced site hound parent.

Mya is showing her man a different side of her. She’s being his waitress, his mistress, his everything, but not for long. She’s being all these things as a soon to be slap in the face for cheating on her. The beat is a hard hand clap which goes well with the hard lyrics. Mya wants to give her man something to remember her by before she leaves him. She continues to “Switch It Up” at the end of the song when she begins a little rap verse. This is something people aren’t used to hearing from Mya.

Mya was originally known for her dancing, but when she focused her attention on singing, nothing could stop her perfect set of pipes from nudging their way onto the airwaves between the likes of Brandy and Aaliyah. Her production team keeps the beats tight -- especially when her cast of collaborators features such heavyweights as Babyface, Swizz Beatz, Dru Hill, Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott, and Wyclef Jean. Fear of Flying (2000) hit the charts nearly as hard as her self-titled debut in 1998, and it doesn't look like she'll be stopping anytime soon.

Since then she has released two more albums, Fear of Flying (2000) and Moodring (2003), and made her mark in videos, movies and video games.
