Missy Elliott has joined a fan campaign to help get her Shark Tale song collaboration with Christina Aguilera released on streaming services.
In a post on X, Elliott tagged both Universal Music Group and Geffen Records and asked them to put ‘Car Wash’, the closing song from the 2004 animated film Shark Tale, up on streaming services.
Elliott was responding to a fan who was disappointed the song was not available to listen to online.
“@UMG @GeffenRecords the fans tagged me wanting to know why the song ‘Car Wash’ on #Sharktale soundtrack not on streaming sites,” Elliott posted. “Can you please help out because many of them have been asking as you can see and miss it.”
In response to her post being shared, Elliott later replied and wrote: “The fans been asking for a while so I’m just trying to help them.”
Seven out of 13 songs on the soundtrack are currently unavailable on Spotify, including Elliott and Aguilera’s duet, Justin Timberlake and Timbaland‘s ‘Good Foot’ and Mary J. Blige and Will Smith‘s duet, ‘Got To Be Real’ (as per People).

In other news, Lizzo gave an emotional speech at Missy Elliott‘s Hollywood Walk Of Fame induction earlier this month (November 8), praising the rapper for all she’s done for “so many Black girls”.
Elliott said she was “humbly grateful” to be honoured with a star. “It’s just a blessing to dream big and it truly happened,” she explained during her acceptance speech outside Amoeba Records on Hollywood Boulevard. “I’m truly standing here.”
Taking to the podium, Lizzo – who collaborated with Elliott on ‘Tempo’ in 2019 – said: “You are the brightest star in the universe, Missy. I’ve watched you my entire life. And I saw a superstar in you, but I’ve also seen myself. I’d never seen myself and you lived so boldly and so beautifully and so unapologetically and so out loud.”
She continued: “You have no idea what you have done for so many Black girls. We don’t deserve you. We don’t deserve Missy Elliott and still, you continue to give to us, and given with your heart.”
Missy Elliott dedicated the star to “female MCs in hip-hop, to my sisters in hip-hop” before giving shout outs to Queen Latifah, Monie Love, Sha-Rock, Angie Stone, Roxanne Shanté, Yo-Yo, MC Lyte and Salt-N-Pepa.
“I know I’m probably missing some, but all of y’all that started before me, because y’all are the backs that we stand on,” she continued: “Y’all are the foundation. Y’all ran so we could walk, y’all stood up for something so we could sit comfortably, so I thank y’all for this moment.”
