This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
The always-outrageous Missy Misdemeanor Elliott is a sista doin’ it for herself once again on this funky followup to her acclaimed and influential 1997 debut Supa Dupa Fly.
Well, almost for herself — trackmaster Timbaland is still has Missy’s back, laying down his often-imitated, never-duplicated backdrop of off-balance, skittering drum beats, whumping bass lines and spooky strings. But make no mistake, this is Missy’s show — and she shows she can beat gangsta rappers at their own game, verbally pimp-slapping the cheating dogs, lovers who don’t call and her many musical imitators with her low-key, high-intensity wordplay. Da Brat, Lil Kim, Redman and Eminem drop by to help Missy keep it real.
