Missy Elliott Releases Debut Album 20 Years Ago Today

MIssy Elliott

What can I say about Missy Elliott that haven’t already been said? She’s innovative, creative, got a great ear for talent and just damn talented. 20 years ago today, Missy Elliott released Supa Dupa Fly, which is her debut album. Her unique style combined r&b, hip hop and crazy production from Timbaland and you got an album that still gets much play in the whip. Before blowing up, she wrote for the late, great Aaliyah that lead to her getting her own record label before releasing an album. Two weeks before the album dropped, she released The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) and it was different and dope as hell. The album features Busta Rhymes, Da Brat, Lil Kim, Aaliyah, Ginuwine, Timbaland and 702. The entire is dope and my favorite track has to be Friendly Skies featuring Ginuwine. Below is the track listing!

Besides Friendly Skies, my favorite tracks are Sock It to Me, The Rain, Beep Me 911, Best Friends and Why You Hurt Me. I’ve said many times that Missy is my 2nd favorite female artist next to Lauryn Hill. Missy just isn’t a talented artist, but an awesome producer and songwriter.
