Missy Elliott, Ciara, and Busta Rhymes brought out plenty of surprise guests for their tour stop in New York City.

The legendary artists hit the stage at the Barclays Center on Monday night, August 12, for the latest stop on their “Out Of This World Tour.” During her set, the Queen Bee stunned fans when she popped up on stage with Virginia rapper as the tune of her collaboration with Mobb Deep “Quiet Storm (Remix)” bumped through the speakers. From there, Kim delivered a medley of her hits from “Ladies Night” to “The Jump Off.” It was the first time Missy and Kim performed on stage together in years.
