Mya Unmasks ‘Mess Up My Hair’ As New Single

Published: Thursday 9th Feb 2012 by Rashad

‘It’s All About Me’ maestra Mya is looking to live up to such billing with the forthcoming Valentine’s Day release of ‘K.I.S.S.’ – her recent effort, previously available only in select countries, that is now readied for worldwide release.  Lifted from the singer’s own imprint Planet 9, Miss Harrison is looking to make moves back onto charts and radio alike with ‘Mess Up My Hair’.

‘Hair’, now available at digital outlets, is a sexy tune reminiscent of Caribbean beauty Rihanna‘s ‘What’s My Name’.  A comparison that will inarguably serve as a blessing and curse, the single is one of many extras U.S. fans will get on ‘K.I.S.S.’ (Keep It Sexy and Simple).

Unfamiliar with the track?  Take a listen below:


Radio friendly to say the least.  The track is certainly a reminder of the Mya we’ve missed – sassy and sexy.  If this bid will be enough to land the fallen diva back on charts, however, is another question.  Given the minimum promotion of the effort, the answer is all but inevitable.  But, we respect her hustle.  Never one to be discounted, here’s hoping the masses find way back to Mya’s oft-overlooked talent.

    nope sorry,like i dunno,,did all her producers just get lazy this go around or are they just begging for for lawsuits from Rihanna and her producers(for this song,a direct rip-off of what’s my name) and from Beyonce and her producers(for my fav song on this K.I.S.S album of her’s called take him out ft. Spice,a direct rip-off of run the world) No ma’am,i want you to go back to the drawing board and come up with something better(u know u can do it,i mean u’ve done it before,something in the vain of my love is like whoa,now that’s the real Mya we all love not this re-run sounding mess) However i still go OFF when i hear take him out,that’s my jam ya’ll! yass!

  17. aisha aguilera keys February 10, 2012

  19. YOOSONDALOOSE February 10, 2012

    She needs to promote, she never is on scene!

  20. Nana February 10, 2012

    This song is hot.. I bought her album twice on itunes, and for those of you saying it sounds like what’s my name Mya has never been a swagger jagger that’s Beyonce M.O.

  21. i&i(yardie) February 10, 2012

    I miss Mya! I’ve been a big fan since my early highshool days. She tun up di stage with that performance above. Mess up my hair, can’t stop listening that song from last year along with “KISS”, “I love me some you” and “Evolve”. I am stuck to listening from youtube cant wait for the album.

  22. sweety February 10, 2012

    i lve evolve as well

  23. darlingAnn February 10, 2012

    MYA GIVE UP SWEET. x

  24. Aaron February 10, 2012

    Go Head Mya..Screw the haters… she has more talent than most of the hot messes Thatgrapejuice posts about.

  25. Frachella February 10, 2012

    I always liked Mya, but really she was never in the same league as Aaliyah, Brandy or Monica. The woman is a helluva dancer though. She needs to get with all of Rihanna’s producers and then she will be hot again.

  26. B Lamont February 10, 2012

    That performance was HOTTTTTT. Mya can really dance her a** off and she didn’t get winded or anything while singing! Great job!

  27. ROYALACE February 10, 2012

    THIS SHITS!!!! GO MYA!!! I LOVE IT!

    Amen Aaron!

  28. i&i(yardie) February 10, 2012

    Rihanna’s producers or her PR Team? I think it is the latter because I believe Mya’s songs are of a better quality and content she just needs better PR to get her work out there. Tun up the thing ya Mya, yuh a gwaan good!

    Naysayers watch her evolve or shut it!

  29. CC Bebcock February 10, 2012

    Geeerl!!!!
    Sit your Ass down!!!!!!
    Or… Get your Ass up and out!!!! *clap*
    Mariah is the queen and will slay!!!!!!!

  30. Estebin February 10, 2012

    Love this track, it proves that Mya has the talent to be BIG, even bigger than in the old days!! Go Mya!!

  31. Boopi February 10, 2012

    Cute song! Just add some choreography w/the video and performances and you can come back!! Mya is one of the very few that can dance on Janet’s level. (Aaliyah is another) Remind these kids of what you can do Mya!!!!

  32. Boopi February 10, 2012

    oop!

  33. mal February 10, 2012
