"Beep beep, who got the keys to the jeep?...Vrooom!"

Our first venture into hip-hop covers a true titan of the genre. With her debut solo record "Supa Dupa Fly," Missy Elliott's confidence and willingness to bet on herself paid off many times over. 

Hilary and Cody discuss Missy Elliott's partnership with Timbaland, the groundbreaking music videos, and how they forged their own lane in a time when hip-hop was coming off its most polarized era.

Missy Elliott is an innovator and originator.  "Supa Dupa Fly" put the world on notice, and we are stoked to tell a bit of this album's story!
