LOL @ 10.
Yup some poor unsuspecting girl messing with a trifling guy will definitely get her tires flattened by an angry female driving around playing this song, (and get her tank all sugared up, car keyed, windows smashed, seats cut, get nearly run-over by the female, walking out with the dude to her car the next morning to review the damage, while the female drives by and throws hot McDonalds coffee on the both of them. while screaming “ITS ME BITCHES” Oh the horror. Good Job Mya.
(The song is pretty good though).
Now excuse me while I check my car.

See the big problem is that the Industry is stuck on looks so damn hard, they cannot see real talent, when it is in their face! Mya is a sexy girl, but this song sounds to damn high school for me! I like grown people music, with is not existent anymore in this time and decade! I don’t understand why everybody thinks the snap, soulja boy, or all these dumb ass dances are real music to dance to?! Hip Hop is dead, real soul is dead, the whole damn music industry is in total shitty ruins!

I heard this song a couple of times of the radio a few weeks ago. Had no idea it was Mya, though.
That said, I don’t think the song is bad. It’s typical female R&B stuff.

The song is better than that “Crank that Superman Hoe” song……but it won’t get as much play……..Because music has been “dummy-ed down.”

I like this song. It’s better than previous new releases from Mya, I hope It gets play on the radio. Its better than half of the stuff on the radio now. Good luck Mya, I always liked her.

I LOVE da song, I thought da video was classy & sexy. Even though it was low budget it didn’t take away from the video at all.

STRAIGHT GARBAGE. Another “great song” for today’s youth. Riding around looking for a no good man, while you should be at home taking care of business or better yet, in school somewhere. When I first heard this mess, I thought some 15 year kid was singing. NEXT!!

I first heard this song about a year ago, I thought it was just something she released just to get be talking about her again, but I didn’t think she would make a video for it or call it a single.

I think this is my favorite Mya song. The video, the song the message I can jus relate and I’m loving it. Mya’s vocals have also improved she’s really singing from her heart. Go girl!!!!!

i’am really likin this song! she’s pushing her vocals on this one, and it sounds nice. I would buy her album cause i still enjoy listening to moodring. But can someone answer the question why Mya’s career can go no furthher?? The gurls been out for years?

JSCENE #10 you too funny and what sucks is that you are so right. Some females will take this literally and be out all night looking for their man. LOL.
The song is so old though. I been hearing this song for a while now. But, it’s great that the video is finally out and about. It’s different so of course I like it. do your thang Mya

This song is ancient to me but it’s cool………..Mya’s voice is annoying on it half the time adn too like high-pitched nasal-ish and if you listen to it minus the video you can hear she’s not the best singer……………. she’s beautiful and I love her and I’m a fan but this song doesn’t show her best vocal ability. And on the song if he’s cheating cut him lose…..don’t act all crazy and stalker-ish looking all pathetic and desperate looking for him especially for hours and hours. smh

I love Mya, but she needs to get her shit together seriously. How many times has this album been pushed back. Its like Kelly Rowland all over again. Keep doing ya thing though Mya. But please stop pushing back your album. LOL.

I dont know whats happened to Mya. She was cool when she first came out, but she fell off. Her voice is not that strong, but she can do way better then this. You can tell the record label doesnt want to spend that much money on her anymore. That video was cheap as hell. If they keep pushing her album back its not going to come out. I think she needs to stick with the dance tracks. Slow songs dont really fit her. I wish her the best…

i like the song i just think the video could have had more action instead of just clips of caution tape and broken glass, they could have done more to bring it to life better

the song is cool and the video.
i think her high pitched voice is kind of annoying, but it got less agitating the longer i listened

Just when I thought I figured out all of the blog acronyms ya’ll post some new shit that I have to decipher. LOL. Can someone tell me what SMH stand for, I just can’t figure that one out? LOL
Anywho, this song is okay. I actually read in her article about how she been played by a lot of dudes, which is fucked up. Goes to show that men will treat u like shit nomatter how pretty you are. I really wish her the best. I like Mya and I think she is a terrific entertainer that can hold her own against the best of them. I never bought her albums but I’ve liked all her singles since she came on the scene in 98′ (I just rarely buy albums). I just think she don’t have a good management and marketing team b/c the shit that I hear on the radio don’t sound any better than her songs. Keep doing your thing Mya! Don’t give up…EVER.

the song is ok and so was the video. I like her single “One Night” I think she should have released that as her video than Ridin…that song to me just seems wrong…why look for a man thats not lookin for you? Mya ma Life is too short, dont waste your time on some1 that dont want ya the way you want them.

she sounds like a female omarion/marquis huston/ray-j and that ain’t saying much, she sucks. Sometimes artists have a good energy at a certain time in history, hers was in the last 90s, nothing else is else here for her, she needs to go home and have some kids.

Mya is very talented she just needs better people backing her up. Maybe even switch labels and have some hot producers up there on her new album. The point is she can sing, but if you notice most singers that actually do have talent are the ones that are cast to the side while the non talented people are pushed forward. Take tamia for example. Great singer, all her albums are hot. But not enough support. Then look at the R&B singer which name starts with a B, she’s an alright singer but I heard better. But she gets pushed to the front a lot.

If Yall Really Paid Attention to Mya Yall Would Know This Video Is Not Low Budget Its Supposed To Be Like The Movie (A Thin Line Between Love And Hate) Thats Why My Look Like That Pretty Crazy Woman Just look At It 1 Mo Time And U Would Be Able 2 Tell

Nice song GREAT video! I’m really feelin’ tha bodysuit.This song sound’s way better than “LOCK YOU DOWN”.I hope this single actually does well maybe they will release tha album if it does.I can’t wait until they premiere tha video on 106 and park an TRL this video is sure to get some votes.

Saturday, September 8, 2007 /
Well, lol, Irene, Motown IS Mya’s new label.She was with Interscope for the longest time. And Lock U Down was produced by Scott Storch and featured Lil Wayne–proof that if you don’t have it, you don’t have it–or, that you don’t have a strong team around you. Biggest examples: Ciara, Janet Jackson, Beyonce, Aaliyah and Jennifer Lopez. All of those women (well…JJ when she was in her heyday) have a strong team of producers, songwriting collaborators, and management behind them, if not the full support of their record label. If your label doesn’t have your back, you’ll end up like Kelly Rowland instead of like Rihanna these days. Maybe Mya needs to hook up with Benny Medina–Tyra just split with him so maybe he has time for new clients.

Mya just seems too old to be ridin’ around in her car looking for her boyfriend…how old is she? she has to be kinda old for this type of stuff by now, because she was popular when I was in elementary school and I’m in college now.
I say it again, theres something very 1998 about Mya :p

And you know what, i hate ghetto ass songs like this, cause trust, some dumb woman will think she’s justified in acting a damn fool, riding around looking for a negro, going to his boys and baby mama’s houses. Then they end up in court wondering how they got there. Lookin stupid to boot! This shit is not cute, please wake up ladies.

lmao!!! I love Mya though and this song wasn’t great but its better than j-lo, lil mo, the pussycat girl crap thats been on here lately.

I like it. Shame about the release date.
Mya, in my opinion, is VERY UNAPPRECIATED. She surprisingly daring and versatile. Not the most powerful voice, but she is doing her VERY BEST to separate herself from the other R&B chicks. Listen to her 2003 album MOODRING. Damn, that ish was HOT AS HELL. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I heard that album. Mya, who a lot people thought was just another generic R&B female, proved a lot of people wrong with that album.
She also seems like a really dope chick, and comes off as very sweet and genuine about her singing career.
Hopefully this WILL get a release. She has been stuck in the same category as Amerie for too long now–two good female singers with long-delayed albums, who the public need to give a chance before making assertions about them.
Love ya ma, keep ya head up!

Umm to # 37…who actually really sells records anymore?? Its 2 much downloadin going onn. Ok so I read that the reason her album got pushed back in the first place was because she switched labels (A&M to Motown)…I like Mya but maybeee its not the right time for her to be comin out again, cause theres like a lot of competition and like somebody else said on here she’s so 90s…I don’t wanna say she’s washed up but, maybe its just not the right time. But I do like this song and the video is alright..Vocally I think she does better with pop songs.

Saturday, September 8, 2007 /
i like mya! shes the underdog….and shes got to make it back in this music game! and thats what makes people stop and pay attention…..mya’s been gone for a minute….and fans of music…..r curious how she gonna make her comback….will she change her image? and so on! she like a magnet she draws people to her….shes got fire!….and shes gonna make her fans and non fans remember why and how she got here in the first place….she come on the scene back n the day a girl. and today shes woman. so i’m loving me sum mya right now. shes gonna show us just what shes made of . you know people say she cant sing, well thats there opinion. and everybody has that right. but theres alot of artist out today that dont sing great live example ciara,ameria,kelly r,rihanna,ashanti, the list goes on. i’ve heard mya sing the national athem live! and she knocked it out the park! i know that most of u insulting the fact that she cant sing. cant sing either!!

Oh wow…Mya can sing??? I like this video???? I like this song???? Heckie no…none of the above. @48 you right…we as women go through some stuff and we do step outside ourselves because of some men but when did it become popular to say you have to be a hood to get sales. Say what you want by MJB has emotion in her voice and make you feel every note…this mess right here…this mess i just listened to…..is to dang middle school for a grown women to be singing about. If you gotta go out looking for him; then you can go out and find someone else.

I can’t say that I have gone “ridin” on a boyfriend before but I do have friends that have. I think the song is funny, and I like it. If she steps it up on the next single, I think she might have a good album. Competition is a lot harder amongst the women these days.

“I been sippin on red bull so there ain’t gon be no sleep tonight” *lol* That’s my FAVE part. I like this song for Mya. Vocally, she stepped it up a little. This is another anthem….Luckily, I’ve never had to do this but I do have friends who have. She looks very pretty in the vid, but what’s new?

Let’s face it Mya’s one and only hit was the one with her and sisco by the way where the hell is he??? I admit she has anice body and a few talents but making a hot track aint one of them. She might need to get in a group or something.

I think that Mya is growing and it is definitely cool to see her come out with something to let us know she is still there, but, I think she should get a singing coach to improve her range a littlle and really challenge her creative thinking, get on an indie label and rock it out.
