Diggin' In The Digits

On Ep.49 of DITD: Missy Elliott has been given her flowers in recent years, but it's clear that she can't be celebrated enough.

Show Notes

Missy Elliott has rightly been celebrated in the past few years. It's been wonderful to see such a modern legend get her flowers.

But after this episode, we hope you realise that we're still not celebrating her enough. Not from a standpoint of influence but one of reverence. The term "one of one" is rarely the perfect phrase to describe someone but for Missy, it fits like a glove. The DITD duo attempt to paint the picture as to how Missy Elliott epitomises a trailblazer and a complete original.
