    Mya does not get enough credit for the impact she had on the 90s and 2000s. From Best of Me to Return of the Ex to this and so many other songs. She deserves WAY MORRE recognition!

I always got this feeling that she was a rare breed, one who actually worked for her talent. And the crazy thing is, she never had to. Talent is a gift from God, Jesus, The Universe.

      That's because the 90s was the last fashion decade to have it's own identity. Everything since then has been a copy of the 80's and 90's. I know this is 2003 but it's still just 90's fashion that leaked over.
