Mýa Makes a Bold, Playful Return with New Single "GIVE IT TO YOU" Featuring D-Nice
Mýa steps back into the spotlight with genuine momentum, and "GIVE IT TO YOU" arrives with the perfect blend of timing, character, and backstory. Featuring D-Nice and pulled from her tenth studio album, Retrospect, the track transforms a recording from a decade ago into one of the most vivid markers of her current resurgence. Never before has a musical artist been so impossible to overlook.
The release comes during a significant period for Mýa. Retrospect marks her first studio album in eight years, and she has recently signed with WME for worldwide representation covering music, touring, film, television, theater, fashion, wellness, brand partnerships, and other business ventures. This move draws fresh industry attention to an artist whose résumé already includes a Grammy for "Lady Marmalade," recorded with Christina Aguilera, Lil’ Kim, and Pink, as well as a SAG Award shared with the ensemble of *Chicago*.
D-Nice opens the song as the host of "Retrospect Live," transporting listeners to 1985 with nods to block parties, roller skates, funk, soul, and feel-good music. Mýa then takes the lead with a lyric that is more straightforward than sly. "If you ask me once, I’d tell ya’ twice I wanna give you all my love," she sings, embracing the track’s playful assurance.
"GIVE IT TO YOU" also reveals much about how Retrospect was assembled. Mýa wrote and recorded the song in 2016, then brought it forward for the album ten years later. "I wrote and recorded this song 10 years ago, and it still feels timeless," she says. The lyric follows someone who usually remains composed but decides there is no reason to hide her desires. In the spoken break, she states it plainly: "When I see somethin’ I want, ain’t no shame in my game."
The video places the song in a sunlit California setting. Shot outdoors in Venice Beach, it draws from the Minneapolis sound linked to Prince and Jam & Lewis, while its grainy visual style nods to *Breakin’*. Mýa also cites Vanity 6, Mary Jane Girls, and Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam as style inspirations, giving the video a playful ’80s feel without losing the relaxed vibe of a summer day outdoors.
"GIVE IT TO YOU" follows recent videos for "Just a Little Bit" featuring Too $hort and "ASAP," continuing a streak that has brought renewed focus to Mýa’s music and visual output. With Retrospect now available, WME representing her globally, and more visuals still shaping the album’s atmosphere, her comeback is no longer understated. This is a visible and active new chapter, built on work that still feels right for the present.
