Missy Elliott Reacts to Rock Hall Induction, ATCQ Snubbed For 2nd Year

Missy Elliott is basking in yet another historic moment in her storied career … as the first female rapper inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame!!!

The Misdemeanor couldn’t contain her excitement on Tuesday when the news broke … admitting she’s been crying tears of joy all morning as she thanked the committee.

Missy feels the honor will kick down barriers for other women in hip hop culture to get noticed by the Rock Hall, but it’ll take a lot of talent and hard work to match the veteran artist’s career catalog.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

After getting her start producing alongside Timbaland and writing for Diddy, Ginuwine, and the late Aaliyah, she released 5 consecutive platinum albums that still impact music to this day.

The Spinners, Chaka Khan (via the Musical Excellence Award) and Zach De La Rocha and Tom Morello‘s Rage Against the Machine also got the nod on Tuesday — but sadly, for deep-rooted hip hop fans, A Tribe Called Quest will NOT be joining the fold … after getting the cold shoulder for the 2nd year in a row.

We reached out to ATCQ reps to see if they even care!!!

Shout out to the Hip Hop Hall of Fame being built right now in NYC! 👏🏽👏🏽
