Track Record: Missy Elliott's Magic Touch

Torrey Carter

Projects: The Life I Live (2000)

Songs with that Missy Magic: “Take That” 

Legend has it Torrey Carter caught the attention of Missy Elliott when he started singing to her randomly on the street in New York’s Greenwich Village. While his first single, “Take That,” was a hit on the R&B charts, it failed to gain mainstream attention. Elektra Records shelved Torrey’s album, The Life I Live, to both Carter and Missy’s chagrin. For anyone curious about his shelved album, it can be found online.
