Retro Rewind: Billboard Hot 100 This Week in 2003 #TBT

Mya's 'My Love Is Like Wo' Hits Its Hot 100 Peak This Week 14 Years Ago
Published: Thursday 31st Aug 2017 by Rashad

Readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.

So, just as our retrospective features ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay’ allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, our newest feature Chart Rewind – a variation of our current Retro Rewind assay – accedes salutes to an entire era of music history.

This week we’d like to press play on ‘My Love Is Like Wo,’ the lead single from R&B beauty Mya‘s third LP ‘Moodring’ (read our ode to the full LP by clicking here).  After teaming up with Missy Elliott for the chart-topping single ‘Lady Marmalade’ (alongside Christina Aguilera, P!nk, and Lil Kim), Mya called on Miss’s assistance again for her follow-up solo project.

The first offering from that set, ‘Wo’ – with its highly stylized, one woman show of a video (directed by ‘Marmalade’ director Paul Hunter) – got some serious love on the R&B charts and eventually Hot 100.  Peaking at #13 on the the latter this week in 2003, the song would stay there for three additional weeks before its descending off charts.

Going on to remain a fan favorite from Mya’s discography, relive the kick ass choreo below and see who joined her in the top 25 this week 14 years ago:

    This is the year Beyonce came out and rained hell on Mya’s career. Sad because Mya has all the goods but didn’t have the team.

    Yes Mya!!! I listen to this song almost everyday… I know she’s independent now, but I really hope she gets that shine again.

    Back when the Billboard Hot 100 top ten was always full of black artists.
