"is Missy Elliot' overlooked as an artist?"


  

          

What about her influence as an artist?

I always felt like she never really gets her props
Ppl show lil Kim waaay more love as a rapper even though she didn't write a lot of her material. Granted missy wasn't a secks symbol
But she never took herself too seriously and I think that's what was dope about her
Her ability to write good songs
Her unique videos
Her ability to write good songs
Hell even her production credits are respectable


Meanwhile we debate where kanye ranks
When this nigga Damn near has the entire Harlem boys
Choir listed as writers on songs

Not to disrespect yeezus but is missy not a visionary either?
