Missy Elliott has announced her first-ever headlining North American tour, which will take place this summer. The rap legend, who recently was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, will launch the "Out Of This World" tour starting in July, with dates running through the end of August.
“This is an incredible time in my life as I am experiencing so many milestone ‘firsts.’ Being the FIRST female Hip Hop artist to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and now going out on my FIRST headline tour,” Elliott shared in a statement. “Fans have been asking me to tour forever but I wanted to wait until I felt the time was right because I knew if I was ever going to do it, I had to do it big, and I had to do it with family! So get ready to be taken OUT OF THIS WORLD with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We can’t wait to share this experience with the fans!”
As Elliott noted, she’ll be joined on the tour by Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland. There’s a tour announcement video directed by frequent Elliott collaborator Dave Meyers. Check that out and the dates for the tour below.
