Artist Spotlight - Babes in Hip-Hop: Mya

I’m going to take you down memory lane, to some classic tracks and one classic babe: Mya. Although she’s still kickin’ it I first got up on her steez in the late ’90s when Ghetto Superstar featuring ODB and Pras came out. This track was everywhere and it was hard to find someone who didn’t know the song inside out.

Mya killed it and thus began my love for babes in Hip-Hop.

No one can deny that she adds sexiness to some of the best rap stars out there, like Jay-Z.  In his 2000 “Best of Me” track Mya turns it into gold. Her voice is like honey and although you’ll usually find her producing R&B tracks, I think she belongs in Hip Hop.
