27 Nov
Summary
- Missy Elliott is urging record labels to stream "Car Wash".
- The song is from the 2004 Shark Tale soundtrack.
- Victoria Monet recently praised Elliott's enduring performance ability.
Missy Elliott recently took to social media to implore record labels Universal Music Group and Geffen Records to release the song "Car Wash" onto streaming services. The track, a memorable part of the 2004 DreamWorks animated film Shark Tale, has been a persistent request from fans who are reportedly "devastated" by its absence from digital platforms.
"Car Wash" featured prominently as the closing song of Shark Tale, with Christina Aguilera providing vocals and Missy Elliott contributing rap verses. Elliott's lyrics within the song cleverly incorporated shark-themed wordplay, such as "Y'all can make your bets, y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch." The demand highlights the enduring appeal of the film's soundtrack.
In separate but related praise, artist Victoria Monet recently expressed her admiration for Missy Elliott, emphasizing that the legendary rapper is long overdue for greater accolades. Monet specifically highlighted Elliott's "incredible" and energetic live performances, suggesting that more tribute shows and events are warranted to honor her significant influence on music and culture.
