GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer Mýa has released the official music video for her current single “ASAP,” available now.
Mýa is the very definition of a multi-hyphenate entertainer and cultural force, whose compelling presence has shaped the global music and entertainment landscape. Mya made her debut at age 18 in 1998, and she has built a dynamic, genre-spanning career over 25 years that blends artistry, entrepreneurship, activism, and philanthropy. Mýa’s impact includes era-defining hits and collaborations such as the Grammy Award-winning “Lady Marmalade” with Christina Aguilera, Lil’ Kim, and Pink, which turns 25 this year, and the global smash “Ghetto Supastar” alongside Pras and Ol’ Dirty Bastard. Yet even with a catalog that helped shape modern R&B and pop, Mýa’s focus remains firmly forward-facing, with new and incredible music that’s a feast for R&B fans everywhere.
“ASAP” dropped on Valentine’s Day. The video is the visual expands on the song’s themes of emotional clarity, urgency, and direct communication is brought to life through sleek, striking visuals, and Mýa’s signature balance of sensuality and control. The video was directed by City James and Produced by Basewood Productions.
The single was produced by Mýa and Lamar “MyGuyMars” Edwards and is a smooth mid-tempo track blending classic soul, funk, and modern R&B groove. It reaffirms Mýa’s intentional artistry and independence that have defined her career. With “ASAP,” Mýa opens a new chapter for 2026 while continuing to deliver the soulful storytelling, polished visuals, and live connection that have sustained her across generations of R&B listeners.
The release continues a steady creative run for Mýa as she builds toward her highly anticipated tenth studio album Retrospect, arriving this spring via her independent label Planet 9 in partnership with Virgin Music. Marking her first full-length album in eight years and 10th overall, the project reflects a career built on ownership, consistency, and evolution, not nostalgia. It will feature a number of special guests including the already announced 21 Savage and Joyner Lucas.
Over the past year, Mýa has remained deeply active across music, touring, and catalog milestones. In 2025, she celebrated the 25th anniversary of her platinum-certified sophomore album Fear of Flying with a definitive vinyl reissue and its first-ever Dolby Atmos streaming release, revisiting the era that produced enduring classics like “Case of the Ex.” The milestone was further underscored by her acclaimed, high-energy performance of the song at the 2025 BET Awards, where her sharp choreography and commanding vocals earned widespread praise and reaffirmed her status as one of R&B’s most dynamic and technically precise live performers. She also joined Brandy and Monica on The Boy Is Mine tour, delivering standout performances that reinforced her reputation as a dynamic and road-tested live artist.
Long before conversations around artistic ownership became mainstream, Mýa founded Planet 9, reclaimed her catalog, and built a fully independent career on her own terms. It’s a foundation that continues to inform her work today. As she prepares to unveil more music from Retrospect, Mýa continues to define longevity on her own terms while evolving without compromise and leading without concession. Mýa proves that independence, when paired with intention, only grows more powerful with time.
