okgo Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 It’s been four years since Elliott’s last project, the EP Iconology, and nearly 20 since her last studio album with new songs. Since some of the fans dancing to her music on TikTok look like they have to adhere to curfews, it’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s been a lifetime. The streets wanna know when some new Misdemeanor will rattle their Jeep speakers. “I got some new stuff in the works,” Elliott says, promising that it will be “fun” and “upbeat.” I can hear her grinning on the Zoom. I don’t get a chance to ask when we’ll get to hear it, but I’m praying it will be soon because it’s not really summertime until we hear her shout “NEW MISSY!” at the beginning of a track like a food-fight announcement. “I never tell dates,” Elliott explains. “‘Cause when I tell you dates, it will get you in trouble with them fans.” Despite the roster of well-respected artists she’s already worked with, she has more on her wish list. She names André 3000, Rihanna (“We were supposed to have worked a few times. I think the scheduling was off or something, I don’t know—we just never have!”), Erykah Badu and Jill Scott (“I want them to rap!”) as artists she’d love to collaborate with. Elliott also isn’t afraid to revisit old songs. She says she’s down to finally make a music video for “Signs,” a Beyoncé deep cut that taught generations the correct order of the zodiac signs. “Yeah, she gon’ have to pull that back out,” Missy says with girlish delight. If I’m quiet enough, I can hear her wheels turning.

Fancyhoodlum Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I'd love for her to also release the Block Party finally
ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted June 20, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted June 20, 2023 Her last EP was very disappointing but she has been gifting us with good guest verses every now and then. I’m perched.
humbz Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I love her so much. she will always be completely silent when it comes to her recording proccess, but I’ll keep my faith. and the ‘signs’ mention? caught me off guard. it’s such an underrated bop.
