Kingston, Jamaica, August 20, 2023 –
Grammy-winning R&B sensation Mya teams up with Dancehall legend Bounty Killer have linked up for new music video titled “Whine.”
Under the creative direction of directors Josh Sikkema and Derek Brown, the video showcases Mya’s captivating performance amid the sultry tropical climate within an elegant colonial-style country estate.
Mya, at 43, exuded timeless allure with her flowing red locks, aqua midriff top, and yellow lambada skirt, as she gracefully moved through the two-story home. Joining her were local dance sensations Prettii Prettii, Danii Boo, Latonya Style, Sara Bendii, and Kissy McCoy, who added tantalizing choreography sequences to the mix.
Amidst this vibrant atmosphere, Bounty Killer made a charismatic appearance on the veranda, delivering his signature lyrical prowess in this flirtatious party anthem.
The video is a visual delight, thanks to the talents of wardrobe stylist Aliecia Brissett, hairstylist Troy Turner, and makeup artist Karamel Katrina, who curated Mya’s colorful ensembles throughout the production.
“Whine,” a seductive fusion of Pop and Dancehall, is produced by DJ Hardwerk with songwriting contributions from Mya, Bounty, and Theron Thomas (known for working with Ciara and Rihanna). Mya’s sultry vocals and Bounty Killer’s magnetic presence make this track an irresistible hit.
Celebrating her 25-year journey in the music industry, Mya expressed her love for Jamaica and gratitude to dancehall legend @1unogeneral on Instagram.
The song is released under Mya’s independent label, Planet 9, in partnership with InGrooves.
