Positioned deliberately outside a traditional album cycle, "Face to Face" emerges as a standalone record—an intimate musical journey paving the way for Mya's forthcoming body of work. As spring gives way to summer, this reflective piece invites listeners to pause, renew, and embrace personal growth—echoing Mya's own journey toward authenticity.

"Face to Face" ,produced by MyGuyMars, Mike & Keys, and Mya herself is a soulful arrangement blending contemporary R&B melodies with subtle hip-hop undertones. Touching on foundational influences like the SOS Band, the track remains firmly planted in Mya's present-day evolution, creating a lush, self-reflective soundscape that addresses the themes of self-reflection, spiritual centering and discernment.

"My new single, 'Face to Face' is an introspective record that reflects where I am in life today," Mya explains. "It's a closer look into my soul, my thought process, and the journey to becoming my best self, while setting the stage for my next, upcoming body of work."

Mya concludes: "More importantly, I hope the message of 'Face to Face' inspires my current and new fans and supporters to take a deeper look at themselves with the hope that they continue on their journey of introspection, personal growth, and free self- expression."
