Mýa

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BHip hopHouse

Mýa is a Contemporary R&B and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches House and Pop. Their sound grew out of Nikki Flores, Lil' Kim, En Vogue, Janet Jackson and Robin Thicke. Those roots explain a lot about how Mýa arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Aaliyah, Toni Braxton, Blaque, Mary J. Blige and LeToya, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Tiwa Savage, Spice, Chloe Bailey, Mila J and Ari Lennox, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 48 connections around Mýa, reaching back through Nikki Flores and forward to Tiwa Savage. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
