Last night, VH1 aired their newest installment of the famed series Behind the Music, and this time, Missy Elliott was the featured artist. Not as though we didn’t before, but after watching the episode, we must admit we have some serious respect for Missy who opened up on camera about the demons of her past and present, and how she has managed to deal with and defeat them on her way to the top. The special featured commentary from Missy herself, as well as from friends and family, including Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Ciara and Timbaland. Its hard to discern whether or not the footage did Missy and her accomplishments enough justice, but it was a great piece none the less. We especially loved the ending shot in which Missy confesses, “I hope to be among the legends when I’m done…But I ain’t done yet.” We’re glad to hear it, and you already are a legend in our books.

Make sure to keep an eye out for Missy’s newest album Bloc Party, set for release later this year.
