As we anxiously (and impatiently) await a formal invitation to Missy Elliott’s Block Party, we’ll gladly settle for the iconic artist’s Behind The Music premiere tomorrow night (10pm) instead. We like to think the “Take Ur Clothes Off” rapper finally responding to our pleading for new music by first guiding us on her journey to becoming the Supa Dupa Fly artist we’ve come to love. Jump below for not one, not two, but three previews of the music producer’s VH1 special.

Missy gets her start in “Da Basement”:

P. Diddy (of all people) brings Missy from writing and producing back into rapping:

The raptress talks about the having success of her first album Supa Dupa Fly on her own terms. “I’m gonna stay my size and I’m gonna have a big record. And that’s that.”:

Thank goodness for DVR, not because we won’t be glued to our couches at 10pm sharp to watch live, but because we’re going to need to replay this episode over and over until Missy finally releases Block Party.
