Don’t get me wrong, I think Missy Elliott rules. She’s helped countless suburban teenagers get their grind on at both junior and senior high schools all across the country. All I got is respect for Missy–that’s why I pay $4.99 a month to have this screensaver on my phone:
Can't not!
That said, I dunno about this fan, who may be reaching a little bit with this analogy, which is apparently part of a larger essay written for a school project.
Missy Elliott could be compared to many of the strong women we have read about in our class. Elliot is the contemporary Sojourner Truth. [sic]
Never thought about it quite like that, but sure. You know, the third verse of “Pass that Dutch” really is way deeper than I used to think.
Pop that, pop that, make that money
Just keep it going, like the Energizer Bunny
Shake that, shake that, move it all around
Spank that, yank that, dutch back now
Freak him, freak her, whatever ya choice
Didn’t come to judge, I came to get ya moist
Scream – (WHO-DI-WHOOOOOOO!) now my voice is lost
Can I get a ride on the white horse? [horse neighing]
It’s like a classical postracial moderate neofeminist treatise all up in this! Looks like Obama’s been studying. Yes, this was taken today.
It's all about respect.
