Beyond her Ferg collab, Missy has also helped spearhead “This Is for My Girls,” a star-studded anthem featuring Kelly Rowland, Zendaya, and Kelly Clarkson, among others. In February, she also dropped her single “Pep Rally.”
In addition to Bruno, Missy has been in the studio with Pharrell working on her first album since 2005’s The Cookbook.
