Missy Elliott Brings Mind-Blowing Vision to Life for Out of This World Tour in Los Angeles: Concert Review


Missy Elliott brought her mind-blowing vision to life during the Los Angeles stop on her first headlining tour, Out of This World.

“I’ve been a superstar since Daddy Kane was raw / I’m live on stage, c’mon, give me some applause,” Missy Elliott raps on her 2002 single “Bomb Intro / Pass That Dutch,” delivered with a steamrolling fervor. The fact that she parlayed her love of professional dancers into assembling a top-shelf team of pliable young upstarts only brought her vision more into focus, sanding down any rough edges that may have emerged in the process. Timbaland ran through his countless hits, while Rhymes and his perennial hype man Spliff Star showered the audience with a champagne spray to the tune of “Pass the Courvoisier.” Ciara was all sweat and allure, with a dance crew in tow to enliven “Body Party,” “Goodies” and “1, 2 Step.”
