Missy Elliott is the first rapper to have a song played in space. On Instagram, she revealed she teamed with NASA to become the first rapper to have a song played in space through the Deep Space Network. She now joins The Beatles as the only artist to do so.
YOOO this is crazy! We just went #OutOfThisWorld with @nasa and sent the FIRST hip hop song into space through the Deep Space Network. My song “The Rain” has officially been transmitted all the way to Venus, the planet that symbolizes strength, beauty and empowerment. The sky is not the limit, it’s just the beginning
Earlier this month, Missy Elliott, global Hip Hop/R&B icon, kicked off her groundbreaking debut headline tour, OUT OF THIS WORLD — The Missy Elliott Experience, to a sold-out crowd at Rogers Arena. The electrifying launch set a high bar for the remaining 29 dates of the tour.
Before Elliott took the stage, DJ Navarris energized the packed arena, followed by back-to-back dynamic performances from mega producer Timbaland, Multi-Platinum superstar Ciara, and Hip Hop legend Busta Rhymes.

Known as this summer’s must-see event, Elliott’s visionary production featured a troupe of 25 dancers, including ballerinas and a tap dancer, enhancing each performance with intergalactic set designs, cutting-edge visuals, and state-of-the-art lighting.
Elliott, whose influential catalog spans three decades, ignited the audience with hits like “Throw It Back,” “Sock It 2 Me,” “Get Ur Freak On,” and “Hot Boyz.” Her set culminated in an explosive finale with “Ching-A-Ling,” “Bring the Pain,” and “Work It.” Throughout the show, Elliott dazzled in custom outfits by celebrity stylist June Ambrose, ranging from a bedazzled astronaut suit to sleek latex ensembles and graffiti-inspired designs.
OUT OF THIS WORLD — The Missy Elliott Experience is produced by Live Nation in collaboration with Mona Scott-Young, Elliott’s manager and CEO of Monami Entertainment, and represented by Seth Shomes of Day After Day Productions (DADP). Fans across North America eagerly anticipate the tour’s next stops, eager to witness Elliott’s unmatched talent and innovative stage presence.
