Seven years.
It’s startling to believe that it’s been that long since Missy Elliott released a studio album.
Indeed, fans of the star have waited with fervent patience, tiding themselves over with the vast array of material she cooked-up for other artists.
However, their patience is set to be rewarded this June when the game-changing femcee makes her long-awaited return.
Details after the jump…
Speaking to MTV News this week, Elliott’s longtime collaborator Timbaland dished on their joint comeback, saying:
“Me and Missy are both coming with our albums at the same time, and it will be in June.
Right now, we’re preparing to get both our videos, our first singles, shot kinda at the same time. We want to do it as a movement and spontaneously.”
The news follows the 40 year old’s recent revelation that she suffers from Graves Disease – an autoimmune ailment she asserts will not hold her back.
Which is just as well, as the industry craves her creative flare. She redefined the concept of the female MC, and we can’t wait to see her do it again!
Your thoughts?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! FINALLY MISSY IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG!
Just hope they both cok up some great music! Both are great artists, songwriters, and producers…
We can only hope! Bring it Timbo n Missy!

Mi-sssssssssyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
cant wait omg l a
Yess now if we could just Get Lauryn Hill to make a comeback the female rap game would be something to listen
SOOO excited for both of them. I hope Timbaland’s sound and direction is more like the gems he produced with Aaliyah rather than the below average productions he’s come up with for the last couple of years…
Damn everybody all happy
Nicki Minaj must really be killing hip hop then
If everybody is sooooo happy that missy is coming back lmao

First of all missy aint takin nicki out the game. She coulda done that years ago when nobody knew who nicki was but looking at nicki’s fanbase and popularity that’s virtually impossible. Now, with that being said, Missy and Nicki are actually cool wit eachother and could probably do a collab. But I’m happy missy is coming back. Let’s hear some good stuff.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAASSS!!! 😀
Great news. Welcome Back Missy & Tim.
Yes Missy Im so happy you are coming back !!!!!!!!!!…. Her and tim about to change the game up again hip hop is going to be saved:) …..June needs to hurry up and get here lol
Alright!! A true MC is Back…. Now she can show people what a Real MC can do….. Nicki aint got nothing on Missy E… so u can drop that noise. Missy being in the game longer Nicki can only hope for that type of longevity. I swear you give people an inch and the “stans” wanna claim a mile. Give respect where respect is due I’m sure Nicki herself knows.
This news makes me so, so excited!!!! Now we just have to get Janet Jackson and Eve to release new music/ albums and I’m set. 🙂 YAY!!!!!!
PS — side note: When is Christina Aguilera new single suppose to be dropped? I heard it’s called “F*** Your Body (album version title), Love Your Body (radio version title).
hey hey hey YES HONEY!!!! sooo funny I am playing ALL IN MY GRILL before i saw this post-YES MISSY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omfg!!! Yes A REAL MC!! I freaking love you missy So happy you are coming back to save female rap….I cant wait!!!!!
Missy…I welcome you back with open arms and open ears.
Bye Nicki Minaj.
Why are some of y’all comparing Nicki and Missy? Missy doesn’t play that stan wars/comparison s*** at all as she is cool with everybody. Stop trying to create a war when there’s none. Missy respects Nicki and as Nicki says, she IDOLIZES Missy because Missy reinvented the hip hop game for female MC’s. I wouldn’t be surprised if Nicki and Missy collabs in the near future….
There is room at the top for everyone! From Iggy Azalea to Azalea Banks… from Jean Grae to Trina… from Lauryn Hill to Missy …. from EVE to Nicki – there is room for ALL. We should be celebrating that FEMCEE’S are back and Hip Hop is ruling instead of these stan wars all the time. Don’t get me wrong, seeing haterz stay pressed is amusing to say the least… but don’t y’all get bored of hating? 😆
I hope Timbaland has another Brandy collabo on his album. Missy needs to hook that up to.
Yes!!! Love me some Missy E!! I want a collabo with Kreayshawn
Now this is exciting news!! Just took me back to high school. The days of Aaliiyah, Genuwine, Magoo…up jumps the boogie! I’m excited 😉
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!!
The Queen of Hip Hop is returning THANK GOD!!
We have waited way to long…
I’m so excited about her comeback and the fact timberland is involved.
+ Now missy gone show nicki who REALLY Runs the game.
i was saying all last year Miss need to come back and save us from the mediocreness (if thats a word lol) I hope Tim puts down some fire ass beats for her too like he used to and not the new pop ish he be on..im kinda excited he droppin an album too hopefully its hiphop tho because i stopped buying his cds once he went pop on me..but yes we need this asap Missy!
