Missy Elliott on Monday announced her first headlining tour with Ciara, Busta Rhymes and Timbaland, after more than 30 years as an award-winning songwriter, rapper, singer, producer and dancer.
Missy Misdemeanor Elliot, 52, has long worked with her childhood friend and fellow producer Tim Timbaland Mosley, and was writing songs for other stars years before her 1997 debut album Supa Dupa Fly, including the 1993 hit That’s What Little Girls Are Made of, which was written for Raven-Symoné.
Elliott on Monday announced Out of This World — The Missy Elliott Experience, her first headlining tour, with 24 dates across North America.
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, the four-time Grammy winner said in a statement.
Fans have been asking me to tour forever, the Work It singer said, 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!
In addition to Timbaland, Elliott has collaborated with both Busta Rhymes and Ciara in the past. Busta has appeared in several of Elliott’s songs, and Elliott was featured on Ciara’s 2004 hit 1, 2 Step, and her 2005 hit Lose Control.
So get ready to be taken OUT OF THIS WORLD with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We cant wait to share this experience with the fans, Elliott said.
The tour will kick off on July 4 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and will wrap on Aug. 22 at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Ill.
A ticket presale exclusive to Verizon opens April 9 at 10 a.m. local time, and runs through April 11 at 10 p.m. local time. A general pre-sale opens April 11 at 10 a.m. local time, and general sales open April 12 at 10 a.m. local time. VIP packages will be available at VIPNation.com.
