It was written and composed by Elliott, Melvin Barcliff, and [[Timbaland\|Tim "Timbaland" Mosley]] for her debut album ''[[Supa Dupa Fly]]'' (1997) and released as the album's third single in 1998. The lyrics describe Elliott insisting that, if her lover intends to leave her, he should tell her so before going, by any means necessary. ==Music video== The video premiered in February 1998 and starts at a pink dollhouse where Elliott is wearing a yellow sparking dress dancing, along with the girls of [[702 (band)\|702]] in the background while singing their verses. In another scene, other dolls are in a big cage dancing with Elliott. A yellow luxury sports car pulls up near the dollhouse and two male dolls wearing tuxedos and pompadours entered. They are seduced and enticed by the girls. However once Elliott appears and the male dolls realize that it's a set-up, the male dolls make an escape out, and sped away but only to be crushed by a giant foot in high heel stilettoes (played by costume designer June Ambrose). The video ends with Elliot seductively blowing a kiss. The video starts at a pink dollhouse where Elliott is wearing a yellow sparking dress and dancing with other dolls in a big cage. The girls of [[702 (band)\|702]] are pole dancing and singing their verses. ==Live performances== ~~==Cover versions and interpolations==~~ Elliott performed the song with Magoo and Timbaland during ''[[Saturday Night Live (season 23)\|Saturday Night Live]]'' on February 14, 1998 (season 23, episode 13). ~~In 2012, [[Danny!]] sampled the drum programming from "Beep Me 911", as well as several ad-libs from Elliott, in his song "[[Payback (album)\|Go That-A-Way]]" as homage to the singer.~~ ==Formats and track listings== Line 97 ⟶ 114: !align="left"\|Peak<br />position \|- {{single chart\|New Zealand\|13\|artist=Missy Misdemeanor Elliott feat. 702 & Magoo\|song=Beep Me 911\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} ~~\|align="left"\|U.S. ''Billboard'' [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay]]~~ \|- ~~\|align="center"\|13~~ {{single chart\|Scotland\|45\|date=19980419\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} \|- {{single chart\|UK\|14\|date=19980419\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} \|- {{single chart\|UKdance\|5\|date=19980419\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} \|- {{single chart\|UKrandb\|3\|date=19980419\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} \|- {{single chart\|Billboardrandbhiphopairplay\|13\|artist=Missy Elliott\|access-date=February 23, 2023}} \|- \|} Line 107 ⟶ 133: ==External links== [http://www.missy-elliott.com/ Missy-Elliott.com] — official site * {{MetroLyrics song\|missy-elliott\|beep-me-911}}<!-- Licensed lyrics provider --> {{Missy Elliott singles}} {{702}} {{authority control}} [[Category:1998 songs]] [[Category:702 (group) songs]] [[Category:Missy Elliott songs]] [[Category:Song recordings produced by Timbaland]] [[Category:Songs written by Missy Elliott]] [[Category:Songs written by Timbaland]] [[Category:Songs written by Melvin Barcliff]]
