Amazon.com Music Reviews
Young R&B star Mya got some mileage from her 1998 debut album's "It's All About Me" and "My First Night with You," but made her deepest marks that year with cameos on two film-related hip-hop singles, Pras Michel's "Ghetto Supastar" and Blackstreet's "Take Me There." Back with her own second release, Fear of Flying, she aims to solidify her identity. The promising title--perhaps a nod to Erica Jong's groundbreaking '70s novel about liberated female sexuality?--turns out to be a reference to commitment-phobia. The high must be followed by heartbreak, the song implies. That theme resounds in various ways through many of the record's other tracks, from the sneering "Case of the Ex" to the bouncing "Lie Detector" (which showcases dancehall king Beenie Man). Mya grabs for a piece of her own freedom with the party celebration and Left Eye duet "Takin' Me Over," which comes as a welcome change of pace from the focus on failed romance. Fear of Flying is hardly a great album, but it does represent a real step forward for the singer. --Bob Roget

 A great Mya album January 21, 2010
Lorrie
Tracks that are very memorable are obviously: Case of the Ex and Best of Me (with JadaKiss). But other tracks that are great favorites of mine are Lie Detector, That's Why I Wanna Fight, Pussycats.
Mya has incredibly powerful vocals (memorable from a song NOT on this album where she did chorus: Ghetto Superstar) and yet her intense range is not showcased or even hinted at in most, if not, all of this songs. Still, that doesn't take away from the catchy and carribean beat that we all love to hear and groove to.
 Love Mya's Voice... December 7, 2009
hot_pink_vinyl (Orlando)
I have a ton of R/B CD's from the 90's in my collection and although all of the artists can sing, I think they do sound alike. However, Mya's voice stands out with it's extra sweet and sticky sound...I love it! Not all the songs on this CD are gems, but the stand outs are "The Case of the Ex," "Pussycats," and "Takin' Me Over."
One of Mya's Best CVDs May 21, 2009
Charnita Fance (Fort Riley, Kansas)
I definitely think that this is one of Mya's best CDs if not the best. I can play this CD all the way through without skipping any songs. Too bad I cannot say the same for a few of her more recent albums.
Her BEST out of all her albums!!! May 8, 2008
Always Samsung (New York, NY)
Mya isnt a great singer but thats OK!!! Work with what you got and she does that flawlessly on her 2nd album. The 3rd album i could pass on but this one is the best that shes every done. Such ashame her fans will never get to hear her 4th CD as she is record lable-less now.
Her Best Album Thus Far March 2, 2007

Mya may not have the best voice in the industry, but she can put together a pretty solid album. This album went in a different direction of her first album. The album was strong in the beginning and end and a few fillers in the middle. I enjoyed "Case of the Ex", "Best of Me", "Can't Believe" which should've been a single, and "Man of My Life". Mya really spread her wings on this album. Can't wait for her next CD.
