Clearly you don't know all the records missy wrote and produced.

Clearly you're making assumptions.

I knew who Missy was before she dropped The Rain and was baffled at how she was able to get a career as a songwriter writing that kiddie, ABC shyt.

This is before the 00's when that type of writing became the norm, and the industry began to cater to the No Child Left Behind generation.

Seems like you're conflating "songwriting" with your subjective views on lyricism. Your're not her target demographic (neither am I for that matter). I'm not understanding the purpose of this thread. Ya'll trying to shyt on a well past their prime artist for making a gold record TWO decades after they've been in the game? She seems to be more relevant than some people that just came out in the past couple years. How many artists ya'll consider "relevant" is doing 13 million views in 3 weeks?

You say nobody cared about Where They From yet the single went Gold. A gold single 20 years after your debut album is nothing to sneeze at. She's also a legacy artist at this point. I'm sure she's making some good money touring and you just don't know because you're not her target demographic.
She would be making good money touring if she was healthy.

All these big celebrities gotta shake that shyt before they are old. That's why she had to sit down for so long

Be healthy

Idk but she should've immediately dropped something new right after that year she saved the SB halftime show

Nobody ever admits this.

She's completely trash as a writer, singer, and rapper.

She just happened to be cool with a young Timothy Mosely.

No need to admit something that's not actually true. Her style and Tim's beats were just a perfect match. Her style isn't for that cookie cutter garbage shyt she was doing afterwards.

Her production and pen game is pretty solidified as well though breh. Who do you think wrong Aaliyah's One in a Million?
Not speaking on R&B, but as a rapper she was trash.
Were there really brehs who were cognizant in 96/97 when she started popping up all over the place with that hee hee haw bullshyt, who actually liked that shyt and didn't find it corny as hell?

At the time it was cool cause it was different, She was different. But then Da Rain dropped, think it clicked for a lot of people. That she was different. And not just different but a game changing artist. Some artist aren't nice because of the lyrical ability, but more so the complete package. As far as creativity, Missy's was and still is unmatched. :yeshrug:..........

Missy is not a "rapper" breh, she is an artist, she WRITES songs, PRODUCES beats and artist, Raps, Sings.......that is different from some shytty nikkas who calls himself a rapper but can barely do that let alone write or produce their own music........and different=corny?

This.........
