Rap-Up.com || Missy Elliott and Timbaland to Release Solo Albums in June

After years away from the spotlight, Missy Elliott and Timbaland are returning with new albums this summer.

The longtime collaborators will release their individual projects simultaneously in June, according to Timbaland. “Me and Missy are both coming with our albums at the same time, and it will be in June,” the super-producer revealed to MTV News.

Videos for their first singles will also roll out at the same time. “Right now, we’re preparing to get both our videos, our first singles, shot kinda at the same time,” added Timbo. “We want to do it as a movement and spontaneously.”

Missy’s last album The Cookbook was released seven years ago and Timbaland hasn’t put out a project since Shock Value II in 2009.

“I just don’t want to move too ahead of her and she don’t want to move too ahead of me,” Timbaland explained. “So we’re both doing it at the same time.”

In the interim, Missy has been featured on the remix to Katy Perry’s No. 1 single “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” and will appear in the video for J. Cole’s next single “Nobody’s Perfect.”

Are you excited for the return of Missy and Timbaland? Let us know.

About time Missy! But I will take this with a grain of salt considering that we’ve heard this all before.

@Audrey Hepburn, Uhh, WHOA. Please hold your horses. I am a Nicki Minaj fan, so please don’t take this as hate, but I will NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVER ever in EVER OF EVERS say that she is in any way shape or form better than one, Missy Elliott. For you to even speak such blasphemous words is a disgrace. o_o

I am looking forward to these two albums, but I have a feeling they will be pushed back. Always happens.

Missy is not worth 250 million, she is lucky if she still has 50 million and yes Nicki has more money. Money maid in the 90s is not money in today’s money.
