Congratulations to Missy for being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - for her unique fabulous style of rap! This track's the one that sold me on how talented she is.
I've never understood hip hop artists being inducted in to the rock and roll hall of fame. Rock and roll artists aren't inducted in to the hip hop hall of fame.
YESSSSS!!!! That was how I introduced my beloved mother to hip-hop...I'll never forget her coming in when I was curling my hair, saying "you know, I really like those Wu-Tang guys, will they play the Ghostface guy again tomorrow?"....memories
I love how in her lyrics and the way she depicts herself in music videos Missy is showing that she's proud to be an individual. I love that sarcastic "don't I look like a Halle Berry poster"? bit- you can tell all she wants to "look like" is her badass self
Her videos always made me laugh as a teenager because of that sarcasm lol and at the same time I was extremely fascinated by amazing out of this world concepts and ideas. I mean, who thinks to rap backwards and lean to the left while at the car 😂👏🏾🔥😍
I just needed a spot to say what I gotta say, she is by far more wordsmith and doesn't. She is o riginal. 😍 as a young man back in the day.. yup I crushed.
@@karaa7595 classier than who? Did you actually LISTEN to their songs? They sang about sex, too - AND THAT'S OKAY. You don't have to dog one person to bring up someone else.
Logan Gregg only saying that because she got into the music video at a young age old, dancing her whole life then performing with her again at a popular event
...and still, no one can come even close to creativity and originality Missy had. How on Earth can you call yourself "Queen of Rap" when the Goddess is still alive.

+Tanios Youssef what the fuck? Nicki Minaj showed her body in Hey Mama as opposed to the males (David Guetta, that other guy I cant remember). The video pissed me off since the women are not only naked but also chained and doing sexual position unlike the men who are just dancing and acting cool.

@@annissrangel9490 They are both ladies of R&B taken too soon in 2001-2002. Aaliyah was a solo artist known as the “Princess of R&B” who died in a plane crash and Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez was a member of TLC who died in a car crash. They were both very talented ladies. You can get more details about them by Googling their names.

People trying to say Nikki is the queen.. Missy did it like no other. she's pretty much a legend
Amber Rose Nicki is still the queen lmao sorry but it’s true
James Johnson incorrect 🤦🏻♂️
Amber Rose Queen Latifah
Amber Rose They’re both queens 👑👑
Amber Rose you said a mouthful!!! Omg we need Her talent back in the music industry so badly!!
How old were you when you figured out the "gibberish" is actually Put my thing down, flip it and reverse it backwards? She was so ahead of her time. I wish she's make more music💚
For real damn I didn’t know that until now
@@deeznutsinyomouf-ky2lg glad to share my enlightenment lol
I just realized it because you said it. 🥰🥰
its "I put my thing down, flip it, and reverse it" backwards
I was today years old. 😂😂 I just looked it up and happened to look at the lyrics and saw that they said that it was backwards and was like 😲😲 Then I came to this video.
Timberland with Missy is a recipe for a hit!!!!
This is a classic that will go down in history. After we all die, this song will still play. It brings so many memories.
True dat. She went over tabus and put secs in the front of a global platform music video, owned the sh it, and came out on top, legendary stuff
Unfortunately, cause the lyrics are so inappropriate
@@joel4907the lyrics are fantastic. They are empowering. I love the 'gotta shave me cha cha ' 😂😂😂
I the 90's really was the golden age of hip hop
Yes
Damn, Missy Elliott's music sounds just as relevant today as it did in more than a decade ago. She's great
Missy still ahead of everybody, ain't nobody ever gon be as original, as unique and as in control as her.
Her song 'the rain' now being beamed out by NASA into the universe across to Mars. (The only other song was the Beatles across the universe). Well done Missy. Xoxo
Someone still listening this in August 2019?
Inês F yup
Here

Yaaas
I'll never stop listening to this.
Missy is the Busta rhymes of female rappers.
@tito diaz oh lol
Shit! Well said😅
@tito diaz isn’t it the same way lwol
@tito diaz busta bus lol 😂
Deadass
Move over, Nicki and Cardi, Missy is the REAL queen of the game!
Indeed
I agree it's missy
I'd also say Lauryn Hill or Queen Latifah or Lil Kim.
@London Cannady Then who is? Lauryn? Latifah? Lil Kim?
@@eddiebrock411-(Bakugo why are you here?)-
And idk I like Cardi and Nikki a lot. I dont know many other female rappers/singers.
That first drop always give me chills
Love that she paid her respects to queens Aaliyah and Left Eye, respect Missy!!!
I loved that too
@@Blue_Neptune13 A1A
Legit just realized that and im crying now.
How?
She was always good for doing a memorial for aaliyah & lefteye or any other musicians who passed away.
Love the tribute to Aaliyah and Lisa.
Time has not diminished the sadness of their losses. They are still as loved as they were in life.
Who are they?
@@annissrangel9490 They are both ladies of R&B taken too soon in 2001-2002. Aaliyah was a solo artist known as the “Princess of R&B” who died in a plane crash and Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez was a member of TLC who died in a car crash. They were both very talented ladies. You can get more details about them by Googling their names.
@@annissrangel9490 Really?? 😳😳
@@annissrangel9490 SMH
@@annissrangel9490 Aaliyah was one of the biggest R&B musicians of her time and Lisa Lopes was a third of the girl band TLC and was known for her creative and often poignant rap verses
Looks like we’re getting older but this song will never get old.
Never 💯
every time i ask myself "Is it worth it?" I have to respond to myself "Let me work it"
One time I did it out loud in front of a 19,20 year old boy. He had noooo idea what I was talking about. It was priceless !!!!
She is in the 2023 Rick and Roll Hall of Fame Nominees please go vote!
@@sac5778she looks so young though now

It is DEFINATELY not the same anymore.
rap is not hip hop
+1 Victor sanchez, When hip hop was hip hop
FIRST FEMALE RAPPER IN THE ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME!!!!!!!!!!! more than deserved!!!!! what an icon 💞💞
Another one that doesn't deserve it! The shithouse sold their soul already. It was for Rock and Metal
@@ffokcuf761 i just can't believe they haven't inducted TOOL in yet
@@ffokcuf761calm down man..
@increasement wait this woman rapper is in the hall of fame but Tool isn't? Unbelievable
@@ffokcuf761cry about it whiny urchin you mayonnaise people did nothing but steal rock, country blues, jazz etc which were all invented by black folks. Now y’all wanna cry when a couple of rappers are in the rock hof because rap was the only genre you onions couldn’t steal 😂lmao
GM all DJ. Even though its hard, but dont drop the music the world needs it truth day only agree or not today🥰🥰🥰🦅🦅 2:07
Also, she is such a good singer! A shame she never got the recognition she deserves for her vocals.
You can hear her in background vocals in Aaliyah and Ginuwine stuff I believe
Wilmary Gonzalez "Just singing hooks, like Patty LaBelle or something?" - from the song Ladies Night
J coles nobody's perfect that's missy singing the vocals I believe:)

Nicki used that phrase in megatron 🤔
I love how she can rap about something suggestive while wearing a sweatsuit
That's Missy, baby. It's what queens do.
Hey don't you be dissing snuggle pants!
Good snuggling usually leads to [Insert random noise].
*Lady Jade RIGHT!!!!!!*
