This is Mya’s new song and video, Paradise. A country full of men would happily follow Mya into the deadly Congo brush to have a chance to chop down those new grownup legs and backs. The fella grinding his package on her is one lucky man.

What do Bossipers think of the new Mya song and video??

  • Hannibal

  • xoteric

    hahaha

  • Ben

    She should really consider getting a job or something. Mya’s music has never been anything to be excited about. This song doesn’t change much

  • CoolWhip

    Nawl, Mya is the lucky one.

    Cute little song, and video.

  • Mez

    Sounds like a disney movie song and the video is a cross between something from beyonce, rhianna, and aliyah.

  • jdmann

    Nice video…could’ve used a few more booty shots but it’s a nice video.

  • Jay

    is that a cage…styled like a dress?

  • toronto

    she needs to step it up. she isnt not an exceptional vocalist so she needs to keep her public visually stimulated with flashy videos and an always current wardrobe or something. in the age of Rhianna that just isn’t going to cut it

  • Baby Hur

    BOOOOOOO

  • Sasha Flop

    boring. that man is fine as hell, though.

  • Paula

    Whomp, whomp!

  • candy

    i love mya! but i wish i was in a beach location. maybe it would be more convincing. she looks nice but i think she tryna be like bey with them one peices. i still love her though. i love the song

  • nelly

    the video really look cheap…the music is ok nothing special though

  • Paula

    Whomp, Whomp!!!

  • Paula

    Whomp, Whomp!!!

  • Kompton’s Kutie {{Suivez la Faveur}}

    Well, don’t have to watch the video to know, Mya’s been ran through like a gas station car wash.

  • Lola

    I’m sure the fellas will love the video…..but this video looks about as low budget as the song sounds……….I added mya to my list of “Things I Didn’t Ask For” a long time ago…..and there she will remain.

  • LR

    Boring. With B out with Sasha Fierce and Rihanna dominating as well, you can’t come out with something like this (yawn) and expect people to care. I agree with an earlier comment…couldn’t they afford a beach scene? Everything was done in a studio and a what…fish tank? Sad.

  • Elo

    Song and video suck…that guy is HOT tho!! The only good part about it…

  • rm

    is she wearing a hermit crab as a ring? wtf

  • Disappointed

    I am with Nelly. This video looks cheap. The record company saw the writing on the wall and nixed the budget to actually go to the Congo and shoot the video or even use a set with a tropical setting and it shows. I couldn’t make it pass 1:44. She has to step it up to compete with the other ladies. Next…

  • 69

    Mya is such a beautiful woman,but damn this song AND video are boooooring.she’s a great dancer,I remember Case of the X and Free and all those videos…dance Mya DANCE!!!

  • susan

    LAME. i couldn’t even watch the whole thing. that was terrible!

  • Razzell Dazzell

    Mya is cute, but we’ve seen this over, and over and over. Enough already!

  • PURPPLE

    hmmmm, its blocked but i want to hear it. I like Mya here and there. Trina’s rap on Mya’s song “I’m Ridin” was the best daym couple of bars of Trina’s whole rap career and that song went nowhere….daym Trina..and Mya.

  • Able to do a backbend while riding

    Mya is so cute but the song and video are the WHACKEST.

  • blaq,

    BORING!!!! Mya looks good, but not great, looks like she shot this in an apartment or something. With the song title and all the bathing suits she should have really been on a beach or something, shoot it on a green screen and she could have been on every beach in the world, and the fine man in the video, she should have used him more, feed him some grapes give him a bubble bath, I just don’t feel Paradise from her dancing in some tired bathing suits and flashdance sets.

    1. I thought that was a perfume commercial.

    2. She needs to step her game up big time or get a day job. Pull out those tap shoes, top hat & cane.

    (Skiddy yack yack yack, tdy sky kak kak kak!!!)

    3. T-N-A isn’t going to get it for that one. In the case of an artist like her – men watch the videos, but women buy the music.

    4. I advise her like many other older artists trying to make a comeback; release your old ish and if anybody asks you about it jump bad and go off.

    5. IS SHE IN A D@MNED LOBSTER TANK?

  • mischelle

    I think the song is cute, she has a pretty voice but the video is hella cheap. I mean she is basically rocking up in front of a white wall for 3 minutes.

  • darealwifey

    I haven’t enjoyed most of Mya’s most recent work, but I actually like music with those Caribbean-tinged beats and instruments. I like this. The video is OK, too. Nothing wrong with a budget video as long as it’s tasteful. I think this is actually decent.

  • Christilicious

    nice the guy is hooooooooooooooooooooooooooot

  • KILO

    Song is trite garbino. As for Mya she could still get da BIZ!

  • omg

    this video is so low budget lmao…where is the paradise?

  • tari’n'tiff

    I think the song and video are terrible! My girl and I have always thought Mya was pretty and for sure has a nice body, but that doesn’t make up for the lack of talent. This looks like the video Ridin’ just with more light. I agree that maybe it’s time for Mya to look for a new career or show the world that she belongs in the music industry. How can she come so hard with Ridin’ (the song, not the video) and so weak with Paradise (both the song and video)? Thumbs down!

  • Thaimmackulate

    I like Mya. She’s a PG County girl. Went to Eleanor Roosevelt. I try to support her career but it’s hard when she puts out stuff like this. This is terrible. The song is horrid. Way too Disney circa Aladdin. Except it’s about sex.

  • Wakeupeople

    Not modern! Sounds like something from the 90′s.

  • Kimberlee

    YAWN.

    The man is yummy though ;)

  • Ahdree

    Song is boring. Mya is still cute tho. Something seems unfinished about this video too. Like it could have had more pizazz and flash and yes the song does sound like a disney or animated movie soundtrack song. Come on now Mya.

  • Oh My

    Like Mya………but the song is stupid & the video looks REAL cheap.

  • Baby Girl

    I like mya…sad to say im not really feeling it.

  • Anonymous3 – the fire sign

    poor mya….cute girl and some of her songs have been really cute but this one reminds of something from the early 90′s….she can’t find nobody to put together some words and a decent beat!!!??? I mean the industry is such that you really don’t have to be a strong singer nowadays so there really is no excuse why she can’t have atleast one hot track…

  • Cherry Cola

    She has no passion about what she’s doing that’s the problem. She is bored to death. She needs new management!

  • …have him making ME pancakes in the mornin’

    mya is the original christina milian….

    beautiful girls….singing ability…ehhhh not so much.

    best of me was my sh*t though

  • thaman

    SHE TRYIN 2 HARD…AS USUAL!

    low budget video, low budget song, she looks great

  • Reality

    Mya go home girl. Time to retire those heels chile.

  • Say it Aint so Joe

    Who in the hell wrote this wack ass song. They should be fired.

  • Aunt Viv

    Mya means well. She’s like Solange-they try hard, but they don’t get quite right…

  • chaka1

    Enough about her. Who is that FINE ASS man in the video. WOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo

  • LADY ARCHITECT (DOING BIG THINGS AT 23)

    THE SONG IS CUTE, BUT THE VIDEO IS VERY LOW BUDGET. MYA ACTUALLY HAS A VERY NICE VOICE IF YOU EVER WATCHING HER EUROPE ACOUSTIC TOUR WHERE IT WAS JUST HER AND A GUITAR.

  • jaiiz

    yup might be hard for her 2 do good right now in tha game but kudos 2 her

  • KG

    She looks bangin…but the video is weak. The song is coo, but it aint nothin special. If this is the first single from her upcoming album I dont see her album doin too well.

  • G Wiz

    that dude looks uber-fruity…not feeling him at all…and mya has got to come harder. If she didn’t sell anything with “My Love is Like Whoa” and “Fallen”, she should already know what time it is with this one. Is she trying to channel her inner Carl Thomas with her “Summer Rain” impression? Boo…try again Mya

  • So tired of the bull

    Like most of the comments before me I agree that the video looks super low budget. I mean maybe its a prototype or something. Maybe it wasn’t meant to be released yet because the video and song just dont go. The song itself is not horrible but its nothing to get excited about. Umm that’s all I have to say

  • Mamacita

    I love Mya and all her old music…She looks great here, but the song and video are wack. She needs a better record label that will promote the hell out of this wack song…works for Beyonce every time…No one can tell me “Single Ladies” is a good song…

  • & (The Blogger Formerly Known as And…) Since we creating alter egos & ish. I

    While Whitney Houston was looking for her crack receipts & invoices she found the requisition for Mya’s video….

    …the cost was $4.99

  • blaq,

    @ Hannibal

    I won’t be surprise in the least, she’ll probably release on after the album flops, or maybe before it drops. Looking at the video, I’ll vote for the before it drops.

  • uhbeautifulmind

    Looks like a low budget video. I don’t think her record label believes in her anymore. Poor girl…

  • Popcorn

    As everyone has been saying, Mya is a cute girl, and she’s had some okay songs over the years, but she really needs to switch things up and get new producers and a stronger sound. For some reason, she has not been able to get things quite right with her music career.

    On a lighter note, the dude in the video was adorable! Is he sangle?

  • danadane

    over, over, done and done – the guy was fine, very fine.

  • She cant sing

    Boooooooooooooo! She is cute yeah…but Booooo

  • rainbowrabbit

    I like Mya. But this isn’t her best material.

  • keekee

    BODY IS BANGIN’ face, not so much .. love her voice but to come back after all this time with this? hmmm now that guy can get it!!

  • Creamy Peach

    I couldn’t even get through it to be honest

  • Bozo D. Clown

    My sister-in-law looks just like Mya… Which is fine, but it’s hard to get through holidays…

  • Ms.Mommy

    Ok is it me or does this sound like a vacation commercial? “Welcome to Congo..the place you wanna be”…lol..lord…What made her think this song is marketable?Maybe it is for a vacation commercial?I have one question..how are you supposed to dance to this and where might I add?Maybe at the local travel agents office?….boooo..she needs to just give up and become a trophy wife…

  • http://SMB crazychris

    mya looks well eatable my fantasies are raging more sex please

  • beautiful b

    that lovely perfectly sculpted piece of chocolate can get it. and miss mya is looking great..too bad this song is absolute garbage. it sounds like a disney romance song…cant u see cinderella spining in circles now?? lmao. mya love if u are gonna sing about effin like nuccas in congo how about incorporating some 808′s, flutes and harps are not gonna cut it.

  • wo

    btw; aint nothing paradisy or vacationy about congo right about now!! maybe for amputee… let me stop

  • Blue

    All the producers in the world, and thats what she comes up with. She has done better, the song was completely terrible!

  • arionie

    if i put on mute i wouldve guess this was a commercial for Dr. Miracle…lol

  • Octavia

    I like Mya… only cuz we look alike. :-0

  • http://Maishamahone@facebook.com Maisha M

    Nah . . . this one won’t put her back on the map. This video is like a little P*rn Flick . . . nothing new and exciting. Same ol’ shhhhhh. . . .

  • dameylee

    naa the actual vocals and the song itself are W.A.C.K.!! sumn for the fellas though shes lookin foine!

  • wo

    so octavia, you got dem dick sucking lips too! nice .. how YOU doin? and dem thighs?

  • Tracey

    What a cheap video and a cheap song, something is seriously missing in that video, some like a POINT? that video has nothing to with paradise or entertaining on the whole, she is just pouting, posing and posturing BIG DEAL. Sounds like a song for Cassie, do not know if it is me, but surely Mya as aged a little and should have come up with better?

  • Stephanie

    i love the song and mya looks great

  • kenya

    why does this song like a an ad for some travel destination, and the video leaves alot to be desired. mya has not had a viable hit since…that first song with sysco, and tht was like ten years ago or something…i believe in perservering, but this is just ridiculous, even jlo gave up making movies!

  • fee

    ALL I CAN SAY IS,”POOR CHILE”….

  • Nina

    I agree with everyone who said Mya and the guy in the video look good, but the song and video themselves are lame. She can do so much better.

  • ewok

    while she’s as cute as a button….she still lacks one thing…. singing talent. sorry, beyonce’ raised the bar with her triple threat: singing, dancing, and her beauty. alot of double threats but MORE single threats in the industry right now. another beyonce’ mariah, or whitney being born right now…….wait for it…..wait for it…..

  • Creole Baby Justa Snare & a 808

    next

  • Playlist

    The song is forgettable and so is Mya. Sorry big legz

  • Crazy Ass Rodney

    As long as I have a face she’ll have a place to sit

  • vachick

    am i tha only one that thinks this sounds like cassie unofficial girl and that other lionel richie “call it love” song combined

  • Kitten

    The song is beautiful and she looks fantastic, work it girl!

  • H-town

    @ Octavia

    JUST alike? Body too? if so, pls holla @ ya boy!

    @ Bozo tha clown

    If Octavia diss a brotha, hook me up wit your sis-in law…

  • MrS. Pharrell Williams

    the song is nice..um mya sorry baby it’s not working this time either ;-(

  • why…

    it seems like everyone is wearing that leotard?? how do you call that, school-girl’s swimwear?

  • A-rab Baby

    this song is baby poop

  • chantel

    mya looks great. hated the video and song. Next……….

  • PEACHEZ

    WHN DID MYA GET THICK?? LOL ANYWHO…. HATED THE VIDEO… THEN AGIAN ALL HER VIDEO R WACK!!

  • closetcolumnist

    The song sounds like a Disney movie soundtrack, the video is wack, but Mya still looks good. Good for her.

  • Dominique=Maxwell Fan♥

    That man in the video looks goood…

  • DA

    All yall ppl claiming Mya has been ran through and is an industry ho, have you been with her or something? Do you know the ppl in the Industry who “claim” they have knocked that down. Men are so simple at times. GROW UP! I always thought Mya was underated. I feel in this song she got away from the tough girl/semi edgy vibe and went softer not sure how I feel about it quite yet.

  • CGJ

    Somebody beat me to it. The song sounds like something for a movie, a “straight to DVD” movie. I think Mya’s time has past.

  • Latindoll

    Yawn…

  • chai

    That ish was boring! Ms. Mouse Angel will never be a super star-she lost her chance when she called herself playing jay-z but, little did she know at the time, she played her own career. If anyone doubts it, just ask Beyonce! HAHA!

  • memchee

    I won’t be buying this……

    b’sides, she more hooch than talent.

  • Pynk – (What time is it?)

    The video is horrible along with the song. It’s nice to see her out there but dang step up yo game. AT LEAST SHE DOESN’T LOOK SO DAMN SKINNY ANYMORE… she looks healthy….

  • simoneisis

    Why didn’t they film this in the Congo? Or a park at least?

  • So easy a caveman can do it

    I’m lovin the new Mya.

  • NO ID

    desperation…..

  • CinEffinRella

    Mya has grown up but her sound hasn’t. This sounds very Tracie Spencer circa 1990.

  • Fran

    Those pink shoes are fierce! The song isnt the best but its catchy..me gusta

  • shaunyc56

    hot song, hot body, got video… I love me some mya, she needs to put something out every month…

  • gaga

    ummm the guy in the video went to my HS lol lol Charles I see you!

  • Ooh Wee

    I’m sorry but I did not care for the video. The song is really week and there just wasn’t anything to the video that kept my interest. The guy she was with did have a nice bod.

  • Ooh Wee

    I’m sorry but I did not care for the video. The song was really weak and there just wan’t anything to the video that kept my interest. The guy she was with did have a nice bod. Sorry Mya, I’d have to give your video a thumbs down.

  • B-nice

    Does everyone woman in the music industry really need to wear babies clothing to sell a record? I am sure most men will like to watch her body in the video, but Mya should want someone to buy the album not the video. Her movement to the song speaks louder than the song itself.

    P.S. “I did not see one image of paradise, the video should have been recorded in Jamaica, Bahamas, or off the coast of Africa, it would have made the song and the video logical.”

  • WTF

    Laugh out frickin loud! This song is whack as hell!!!! Mya looks good, but she has got to be kidding me! LOL…

  • bop

    It’s like a disney song for grown ups….

  • mischa

    This song sounds like something from a movie soundtrack. She needs to hit the restart button on her career.

  • ddfsd

    sdfds

  • Christmas Jones

    What is wrong with this chick? Obviously in her case, sex does not sell! And she is a trick…forreal though,I read her article in I think vibe vixen about a year ago…It was sad, but she is ho-skank. She’d do anything for love, and now money, as this video shows (i couldn’t even finish watching it). Dry humping + ho on a low budget = bad video. Ever heard of leaving something to the imagination? Gat-damn…

    *sigh*

  • Christmas Jones

    Mya, when in doubt switch to Dancehall. Call-uh Sean-uh Paul…he’ll know what to do with you. ;)

  • tintin

    wow, this is the worst i’ve ever heard from mya and i like her

  • Vee Vee

    I like the song, it’s smooth and puts you in a good mood. Mya is an excellent dancer though…I would LOVE to have seen more of her dance moves.

  • Diva

    low budget and lukewarm

  • http://hoopstar08.com Hoopstar08

    Maya lookin good…but where da budget at?

    ppl seem to not be feelin whatever she’s done these past few years…I pray everything works out for her

  • http://myspace.com/sybilblaize Sybil Blaize

    lolllllllllllllllll

  • CJ

    WELCOME TO BORINGDISE!!!!!

  • jojo

    Christmas Jones you know your so wrong. HA HA HA Sean Paul.

  • Tony

    I like the song and Mya, I hope it is a big success.

  • roachburn

    Mya hell yeah, song ahh!My she looks good tho

  • deesac

    songs sounds like radio music no club jumper off but she still fine she can get with a V and some red bull

  • The Bear (I bleed swagger) My dog is STILL GIDDY as hell about Obama’s victory

    Sounds like another Neyo-penned track. Is it??? Anyways Mya’s a cool chick, I like her.

  • finally17nluvinit

    not feeling it @ ALL

    song sound like she found it in cassies trash bin….

    the video looks like a long photoshoot….like she takin her high school seniro pix…BORING…..

    BUT SHE IS HOLDING UP WELL….

  • Divab

    Mya has always been pretty! But um.. who produced this damn song?!? WACK as hell!

  • Allison Mae

    I like mya alot. The song is not good though. I hope she find her groove through. she can dance like noone business!

  • Cee

    omigoodness , I absolutely love mya but this was horrible, I almost couldn’t watch the whole thing she needs better people behind her who actually is concerned about her music career, I thought the video was some advertisement for some cruise or sumthin, and its ashame because she so damn gorgeous, has one of the best dam bodies out there to me, and her singing,good enough, oh mya mya mya … don’t let them do this to you gurl. Mya read these comments, take heed, and grab a hold of the wheel concerning your music mami.

  • Kompton’s Kutie {{Suivez la Faveur}}

    Well, when everybody in the industry has ‘hit’ then no one really respects ur talent, ur music or u as a person. Therefore, every attempt at anything sucks.

  • tooty

    Man….this song is crap and the video is even crappier. My man does look good thou!! Mya sounds like she needs to be singing with Disney kids!!

  • Anna

    so gone

  • keekee

    congo? the fukking democratic republic of congo? where the un peace keepers aint trying to be shipped to? where they gang rape and cut off body parts? that’s where i’m supposed to wanna get my groove on!? someone set her up .. this is bullshyt!

  • get like meme

    yawn boring song boring video!i hope she just did that for fun cuz that aint gonna cut it lol. she’s still pretty but she really need to step her game up!

  • Ben

    I would pay to be her panties for a day

  • Janet

    This is a subtle mix of Michael Jackson’s “The Girl is Mine” song.

  • kobe

    1. Mya is beautiful.

    2. Mya needs a strong pop/rnb DANCE album (i.e The Clutch, Danja, Bloodshy & Avant).

    3. Mya needs to remind people of what a gifted DANCER she is, she should be the next Janet, by now.

  • Steffyma

    This song is garbage. Sounds like something they’d play in a commercial for Carnival Cruise Ships. But her body KILLS in this video! WERK!

  • SoWhat

    Mya always has been a beautiful woman, but she has a voice better suited for hooks and Disney soundtracks (as other agree). Bless her heart. I wholeheartedly cosign with kobe and Steffyma.

  • SimplePleasures

    Song and video…Im thinking not so much. Perhaps she can replace Adrienne Bailon in the Cheetah Girls. LOL!

  • girl, get me some glowsticks!

    fallen dandruff should not count as sprinkling water…

  • Octavia

    Clarification:

    We look alike in the face. I’m more top-heavy (32D) with long legs (kinda Cassie’s size, but working my way up to Naomi Campbell). So no, I would not be mistaken for Miss Mya’s twin. lol

  • Ms. T.

    The one word that is used repeatedly throughout this thread is, “WHACK”. I concur family. She’s cute though. Maybe she should try acting.

  • peach pit

    wow!that song will not sky rocket to the top of the charts.she needs a new manager- new producers

  • TM

    She looks pregnant in this video.

  • bermudalove

    she definitely doesnt look pregnant, but the song sucks. it sounds like an advertisement for a country or something

  • kris

    WHACKTASTIC!

  • 1BadRedBone

    God Bless her mamma and her dad!

  • 1BadRedBone

    Marketing and her Image team can turn her into a bad-ass chick. she can dance too!She can sing. She has the look. She should come out with more songs that appeal to a wide variety. A pop sound, a vocoder sound, nastygirl around the corner sound (if nastygirls got a sound). A duo sound like back in the day w/ Sisqo. A back arching in the shower sound. Whomever she signed with they need to redo her IMAGE!

  • 1BadRedBone

    The lolipop/31Flavors sound is f-in’ up my sexual vision.

  • bootlegger

    “my love is like whoa” was just about it for her. but ive always liked mya.

    yet another one selling sex we’ll see how much she makes on this one.

  • MIODYSSEY

    ALLIYAHS ROCK THE BOAT! LUV MYA THO!

  • Zina {The original princess}

    I would watch it again…with the volume down.

  • STL-LOVER

    SHE SHOULD STOP DOING MUSIC AND JUST BECOME A STRIPPER..IT’S WHAT SHE REALLY WANTS TO DO ANYWAY!

  • BKLYNZ OWN

    WOW..SHE IS LOOKING REAL DAINTY

  • rudy

    Mya looks good that’s old news…. The song sounds like something from the lion king. She needs to fire the producers. If she’s gonna show her ass how about some adult tracks behind the vocals. I think i saw lil birds, squirrels and deer listening to that background music.

  • Dainty

    MYA WTH have u been doing??? Tell me the secrets to ur new superthick thighs. And yeah Im still waiting on the paradise visuals…… Songs ok, voice ok.

  • MsKisha

    Boooo…OMG…that was so boring.

  • EyeLurveDevon~

    Mya is beautiful and talented, but I could hav written a better song than that. It sounds like a Disney song. Too much ass for the lyrics…

  • Jasmine

    She always looks great but this song really sucks. Its boring & not at all catchy. And that’s coming from someone who owns 2 of her albums!

    Im real disappointed, would have liked her to have a comeback!

  • Era

    1. Isn’t Mya a dancer? Then I wonder why she had the same lame moving of the arms and hands through out this video.

    2. The song holds no ground. It is way too airy, and it lacks substance.

    3. I think she did this song and video just to show some people that she still looks do-able.

    She is obviously not taking her job serious.
