Missy Elliott - Ladies Night remix - Rap about Patti LaBelle

Im tryna' remember If Patti addressed the whole rap lyric Missy Elliott did on ladies night....?

I ain't even gonna leave without sayin' somethin' on this track
You ain't gonna use me to just be singing hooks
What I look like?
Patti LaBelle or somebody ni%%a?

I swear Patti told her off in VIBE or sumthin'.. anyone remember??

She rapped the lyric last night at the soultrainawards - so it just back all that drama I remember

I can't add anything to how this lyric might relate to a possible Patti/Missy feud, but there's something else that's been bugging me; I seem to recall that a male emcee once referenced the lyric, only he made it into "What I look like? Missy Elliott or something?"

.

I want to say that it was in a Flypmode Squad song, but I can't for the life of me remember where it was in or who said that line.

There was no beef/battle/diss or anything like that
The line meant that she does more then singing and she can rap too which she went into...

It's probably also notable that, 5 years after 'Not Tonight' and the Missy line, Patti expressed her gladness about the cover version by Kim, Xtina, Pink, and Mya, which was co-produced by Missy. So if there was any type of feud, the hatchet was probably buried by that point in time.

All I know is that Missy's "rap" on that song was literally cringe-worthy. I see why they put her last and gave her next to no time. She shoulda just did the hook.
