MYA JUMPING ON THE ELECTRO BANDWAGON WITH NEW ALBUM

Now that America is slowly catching up with the rest of the world with the infectiousness of dance music, Mya, who is very talented but has always been at the bottom of the totem pole regarding R&B/pop divas. So after no new music released in the U.S. since her album Moodring back in 2003, it's only appropriate that Mya who is an awesome dancer and performer to record an album of electro dance goodies. So far she has recorded 10 tracks with dance DJ/remixer Junior Sanchez, but there's no word if any other producers will come on board.

Here is what Mya had to say to Variety about working with Sanchez:

“Working with Junior Sanchez is an incredibly creative experience. He and his team are true musicians, and we have been having so much fun in the studio – the sound is brand new and completely ferosh.”

I have always been a fan of Mya as a singer and dancer, and I've always felt she got the short end of the stick like many of my favorite other singers like Amerie and Kelly Rowland. I could totally see Mya marketing herself as an international dance artist, since she never did well in the R&B genre. I just hope the music is sexy, edgy and sassy like Mya's personality.

Here is my favorite song from Mya's album, Moodring called 'Whatever Bitch' which if she had made a video for this would have had the kids gagging for points since she was repping them in this song. Also check out Mya in the studio with Sanchez as well.

Mya wanted to release a video for "Whatever Bitch" -it was supposed to be the 3rd single from Moodring- but Interscope squashed it- & Mya began the long process of transitioning labels & management. Damon Elliot is working on a "Whatever Bitch Pt 2".

Well I hope when Whatever Bitch pt. 2 gets released on her new album of sexy electro-pop gems, she pulls a Toni Braxton and has as many of the kids voguing, crab walking and shabamming in the video as possible. Thanks alot for letting me know this bit of detail.
