Missy Elliott verbal tribute to Janet Jackson @ BMI AWARDS 2018

Janet Jackson was honored with the 2018 BMI Presidential “Icon” Award on August 30, 2018 in Atlanta.

[@WhizMitchell]

Instead of the "Diva" road...Janet chose the "Be Humble" road...congrats, Janet!!!! Fantastic speech, Missy!

[@godsson1860]

Never really heard Missy just talk..... She did a great job- heartfelt & articulate

[@JorgeCaler]

Missy is the Queen of Hip.Hop

[@lancecdcw]

Missy's words were so heartfelt. The way she used her lyrics and showed us the things we learned from her music. Her words were heartfelt. Missy also looks stunning. The lady in the audience shouting like she is in church is hilarious.

[@MomTheEbayer101]

There’s nothing wrong with praising and acknowledging another persons good works. When you’re at peace and love yourself you’ll NEVER feel threatened by another’s genius-ness!!!!! If you don’t know what that looks like, you’re witnessing it here!!!

[@missl6646]

Right!👍

[@Powerduo88]

Mom The Ebayer I agree. There are some entertainers that wouldn't dare open their mouths to praise another esp a peer. They might say someone from way back in the day BUT never a peer. Insecurity is a beast!

[@TeesReddRose]

Amen❤

[@joshuaderrico6707]

If not for Janet Jackson there would be no beyonce.

[@ladybmisty]

Amen ❤

[@aristothearies]

Missy Elliot is one of the most beautiful women I've seen in person, up close. The camera does her no justice.

[@TheJqwest09]

Coming from Janet I believe Jack for Missy means Jack of all trades, versatile, diversity and different new refreshing. Missy she is!

Missy looks really good- keep taking care of yourself girl....

That's awesome for Janet to be humble and may God continue to bless Janet Jackson and missy Elliott well deserved congratulations to miss Janet Jackson
