Video: Mya - 'Mr. Incredible'

Mr. Incredible

Although Mya's star has completely dimmed in the United States, the singer's name still holds some weight in other parts of the country particularly Japan, where her latest 'K.I.S.S.' album debuted in the Top 10 on the Japan Top Independent Albums Chart.

"Mr. Incredible" is the latest single taken from the set and for the single's accompanying video the curvy songstress travels back to the 1970s. Watch it beneath:

Fallen star Mya is gearing up to release her album 'K.I.S.S (Keep It & Simple)' on Valentine's, and the set is preceded by the new single "Mess Up My Hair".

The single, which is available digitally, is clearly her take on Rihanna's No.1 hit "What's My Name", but surprisingly, the single works and arises as one of the better offerings Miss Harrison has released in recent years. Take a listen below:

NEW MUSIC: MYA FEAT. TRINA - 'EARTHQUAKE'

Earthquake (Single Cover), Mya

Singer Mya, who last experienced success in the U.S. in 2003 with 'Moodring', is plotting her return with her new single "Earthquake", featuring rapper Trina.

The new single, which hails from her album 'K.I.S.S. (Keep It Sexy & Simple)', showcases why the artist has not been able to maintain the success/relevance that she now has in Japan in the United States or anywhere else for that matter.

Everything from the production to the lyrics feel outdated, which is unfortunate because she really is talented and capable of delivering higher quality material.

WHITNEY HOUSTON PERFORMS ON 'DANCING WITH THE STARS' | MYA SETTLES FOR SECOND PLACE

11/26/2009 0
Music diva Whitney Houston appeared on the finale of 'Dancing With the Stars' to perform "Million Dollar Bill" and the classic "I Wanna Dance with Somebody".



Houston looked great and seemed to be full of energy, but these performances were not by any means good and as we've previously dissected, she seems to be in the routine of talking more than singing. With an impending tour set to kick off next year, vocal rest needs to be atop her list.

As for the competition, R&B singer Mya was forced to settle for second place when voter crowned Donny Osmond the champion of the show's ninth season.



The 'Case of the Ex' songstress had dominated the leader board throughout the season and captured a judge's score of 87 out of 90, yet failed to garner enough votes from the viewing public to fully secure the top position.

Can't say this comes as a shock, given the dancer that is technically the best never seems to secure the crown, which is why past participates Mel B, Mario Lopez and Laila Ali never took the mirrored ball trophy.

'DANCING WITH THE STARS' - SEASON 9 EPISODES

MYA ON 'DANCING WITH THE STARS' (WEEK 10)

11/24/2009 0
Grammy winner Mya soared past the competition with a blaze during the final week of her run on ABC's mega-hit 'Dancing with the Stars', which saw her taken on the Paso Doble, the Megamix challenge and a 'Hairspray'-inspired freestyle (with partner Dmitry Chaplin) and scoring two perfect 30s and 27, respectively.





The singer delivered a great routine with her Paso Doble and easily out-shined the other stars during the Megamix challenge, but her freestyle was a complete and utter disappointment. With that said, Mya has consistently delivered nice routines since the start of the season and should rightfully be crowned DWTS' champ.

As usual, she delivered two stellar performances and finally got praised from all three judges. Pop singer Aaron Carter was eliminated earlier tonight leaving Donny Osmond, Kelly Osbourne and Joanna Krupa as her semifinals competitors.

Nice performance.

As judge Carrie Ann Inaba pointed out, the footwork was in such great unison it was like their feet "were tied together". I don't know what's bugging Len Goodman, but he has yet to completely like a performance from the star and I'm starting to question whether its something on a personal front.

Another stunning performance from Ms. Harrison. As for Len, I don't want to say he doesn't like her, but several celebrities have performed at a lower level than the songstress and netted better scores.

R&B songstress Mya continued to impress during week three of her run on ABC's mega-hit 'Dancing with the Stars', which saw her taken on the Rumba (with partner Dmitry Chaplin) and scoring the season's first pair of perfect 10's.



She nailed it. An extremely beautiful performance equipped  with fluidity and skill that embodied that of some of the show's professional female dancers. She and Aaron Carter, who dipped to the score of 21, are the two frontrunners viewed as the competition's stars to beat and rightfully so on both accounts.

New Music: Mya - 'Blackout'

Grammy winner Mya is speaking out against domestic violence on a new track called, “Blackout.” Mya’s camp reached out to Rihanna’s people after her fight with Chris Brown to see if the "Umbrella" singer was interested in recording the track.

Like I previously stated, I think the track is quite nice, and although I do think Rihanna will address the situation on some medium, I personally don't think she's going to do it on the musical front. That said, I guess only time will tell.

Listen / Download Here

What inspired you?
Mya: I was inspired by two different incidents involving two of my female friends. I remember being disgusted, angry, outraged, sad, sympathetic, and fearful of what I would’ve done if I were in their shoes. I’m still pissed from it and even more pissed that they are back with these guys. But those are my girls and I love ‘em for life. I just seriously hope there’s not a next time.

What did you think when you first heard of the Chris and Rihanna situation?
I honestly didn’t believe it when I first heard of the situation. I assumed it was another outrageous, untrue rumor from an illegitimate gossip site.

Did you immediately want to drop your track?
I have so many songs I’ve written [that] it didn’t even come to mind until I played a bunch of my music at a listening session and everyone responded to “Black Out” in particular. After the incident I had my management contact Rihanna’s team about giving her the song. I’m sure it’s still a sensitive time for her to address the issue at all.

Do you think some people will think you’re jumping on the bandwagon to get press for the new album?
I’m sure some people will think a bunch of nonsense as they always do… [It] comes with the territory. This is much bigger than me or an album. It’s about a silent epidemic that affects one in three women in the world. I just happen to be one of the many concerned voices.

What advice would you give Rihanna?
I’m not in the position to give proper advice unless I’ve been given all facts from the direct source(s).

Have you been a victim of domestic violence?
I haven’t been to jail or a mental institution so that should answer your question.

Read Mya's complete interview with Honey magazine by clicking here.

I think the track is pretty solid and sheds a true perspective on how Mya would deal with the situation, but its obviously not how Rihanna feels or she wouldn't be back with Chris, therefore I can't really see her taking Mya up on her offer. That said, I do think Rihanna will address the situation in some aspect, but probably not on the music front.
