Just a few months ago, Wayne called Elliott a huge influence and named her in his top five favorite rappers. “For me, it’s always going to be first, Missy Elliott,” he said What’s Wright? With Nick Wright podcast. “She’s a huge influence of everything I’ve ever done.”
Wayne mentioned Missy previously this year as one of his major creative influences, calling her a “huge influence” on his own artistic vision “For me, it’s always going to be first, Missy Elliott,” the rapper told Nick Wright when asked of his personal Hip-Hop heroes. “She’s a huge influence on everything I’ve ever done. Jay-Z is the best to ever speak,” Wayne said at the time. “And Biggie, obviously. Then, as a whole, I have Goodie Mob. Then I have UGK.”
