It's been almost nine years since Missy Elliott put out a proper studio album, and, other than a pair of songs that arrived unexpectedly in the summer of 2012, she hasn't given much indication that new music is on the way. In a video chat interview with Yahoo's "The Yo Show" today, she explained that the wait probably won't be ending particularly soon and offered some explanation as to why.
"I think everybody gets writer's block, but I don't think that's the situation," she noted toward the end, explaining that music has changed since she came out and that expectations are high. Earlier on, she offered more on the subject:
She also questioned the pace of contemporary music releases:
Interviewer Michael Yo also asked whether Missy is working with Faith Evans on her new album, which Missy confirmed. She added that she and Faith used to live together and that Faith "allowed me to stay in her house and eat up her food when I had no money. Oodles of noodles, eating up all her food."
