Rolling Stone has just dropped two massive lists celebrating the best songs of the 21st century — and Missy Elliott is reigning supreme.
Rolling Stone’s staff officially ranked their picks for the Best Songs of the 21st Century, and it’s a collection of pure classics. At the top of the main list is “Get Ur Freak On” by Missy Elliott, followed by iconic hits like “Crazy in Love”, “All Too Well”, “Dancing On My Own”, and “Someone Like You.”
They also released a separate list spotlighting the Greatest Hip-Hop Songs of the 21st Century, and Missy Elliott once again takes the crown with “Get Ur Freak On.” Other heavy hitters include Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright,” OutKast’s “B.O.B,” Jay-Z’s “99 Problems,” and Nicki Minaj’s “Beez In The Trap.”
Some artists — like Missy Elliott, OutKast, and Kendrick Lamar — earned spots on both lists, showing just how timeless and influential their music continues to be. These are the songs that soundtrack our lives — the ones we blast in the car, cry to at 2 a.m., and dance to like nobody’s watching. Missy topping both charts is more than well-deserved — it’s history.
