Missy Elliott

Missy Elliott is one of the most – if not the most – successful female hip-hop artists to date. Missy's career truly took off when she hooked up with producer Timbaland and began creating hits like "One in a Million" and "If Your Girl Only Knew" for the artist Aaliyah. Soon after, Missy struck her own record deal and released her debut album Supa Dupa Fly, which went platinum soon after. With albums like Da Real World, Miss E So Addictive, and Under Construction, Missy proved to not just be a female hip-hop superstar – but a hip-hop superstar.

Missy Elliott will be live on stage at the VH1 Hip Hop Honors – alongside fellow honorees A Tribe Called Quest, Snoop Dogg and WHODINI. Missy Elliott will be honored with performances by Ciara, Eve, Nelly Furtado, Timbaland and Tweet.

Watch VH1 Hip Hop Honors Monday, October 8 at 10/9c. Only on VH1.
