She has single-handedly shaped the way female rappers are viewed and opened the doors for some of our fave female artists today. Missy brought colourful creativity to the Hip Hop game and essentially made it ok to be flirty, fun and feminine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Leading up to the release of Iconology Missy took to Instagram and said<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThis year has been a tremendous year for me\u2026I am humbled and grateful.
