Editorial Review:
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
Fear of Flying Reviews:
Her BEST out of all her albums!!! 
2008-05-08 - 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 
2007-03-02 - 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.
Her BEST Album!!!1 
2006-12-02 - I love this cd!!! it is so great!! i loved mya's music eva since her first video...this is tha total opposite of what happens to most artists on their second album (it usually sucks) This is without a doubt in my mind, Mya's best album!!! I have the re-released version with FREE on it. I love almost all the songs. My favorites are:
Can't Believe
Lie Detector
That's Why I Wanna Fight
Ride & Shake
Case Of The Ex
Free
Best Of Me
How You Gonna Tell Me?
even the intro and outro are good....
I just love the cd...surprisingly enough, I think my sister loves this album more than me because she's always trying to take it.
3.5 stars - average 
2006-11-10 - Fear of Flying begins with strong up-tempo tracks, but as the album winds (and slows) down, results are mixed.
Mya - Fear Of Flying
