How Missy Elliot Brought ‘Supa Dupa Fly’ to Life

On this week’s episode, Jinx and Shea cover Missy Elliott’s 1997 avant-garde musical masterpiece, Supa Dupa Fly. They discuss how Missy and Timbaland collaborated to create hits like “The Rain,” “Beep Me 911,” and “Sock It 2 Me,” as well as the visuals that brought the songs to life. Find out who had the best guest verse: Aaliyah, Ginuwine, Magoo, or Da Brat. Later, learn why Jinx is actually this week’s Flagrant Foul and how airplanes, Virginia, and friendship played a role in making this one of the greatest albums in music history. And of course, the courtroom remains ridiculous thanks to tires and big budgets in Deena’s Court. Stick around to find out who gets to select the featured song at the end of the episode.
