Missy Elliott was feeling sentimental amid the anticipation of her new album's release.
In a recent post on social media, the 40-year-old singer-songwriter made a throwback to last year when she re-emerged from her hiatus and appeared for the 2015 Super Bowl half-time performance.
"1 year later on this day I was @ the Super Bowl performing," she wrote on Twitter. "I'm still humbled. Thank you."
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter last year, Elliott killed it with her surprise appearance at half-time. While many artists, including Timbaland, lauded her comeback, the new generation were apparently confused about who she was. Nevertheless, the rapper took it all positively.
"I think it's cool new kids think I'm a new artist that goes to show you that I'm still on [fire] & will rip down stages 20 years later," she tweeted back then.
True enough, Missy Elliott continue to be on fire in the music scene. According to Fuse TV, her new album is number one most highly anticipated album that expected for release this 2016. The rapper herself though has refused to spill the exact date on when her album will drop and seemingly appeared to want it to be a surprise.
"I want to say 2016 but I don't want to give a time," the Virginia-born rapper told Billboard last November. "Nowadays you say a time, they'll stone you."
Despite Missy Elliott's still secret new album release date, she has revealed that most of her new music was done with the help of Pharrell Williams and Timbaland.
In the same interview with the source above, she referred to the two musicians as "the only two producers that understand me."
"Get ready," Pharrell Williams also described of Elliott's upcoming album that will follow her 2005 record, "The Cookbook."
The "The Voice" judge was credited by the rapper herself as the one who convinced her to come out of her hiatus with a call in 2014 inviting her to get back into the studio with him.
