An audacious, genre-bending hip-hop anthem, “Work It” showcases Missy Elliott’s inventive wordplay, reverse vocal hook (“I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it”) and futuristic visuals—including metallic costumes, quirky choreography, and memorable cameos—that helped redefine early 2000s rap video aesthetics. Co-directed by Missy Elliott and Dave Meyers, the video’s blend of sleek surrealism and playful swagger cemented its place as a groundbreaking visual statement.
