“I go by the name Missy ‘Misdemeanor’ Elliot, and this is my new song, ‘DripDemeanor’ featuring Sum1,” part-time Atlanta resident Elliott says introducing the clip.

She included #TheDivine9Challenge twice in her caption. She asked, “Who goes hardest?!”

The video features National Panhellenic Council members known as the Divine 9. They are Alpha Kappa Alpha, Alpha Phi Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta, Iota Phi Theta, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Sigma Gamma Rho, Phi Beta Sigma and Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.

There are also some Atlanta and Georgia connections in the video. They include the Alphas, who are part of Georgia State University’s Zeta Mu Chapter. The Sigmas are Morehouse College graduates. One AKA is a Clark Atlanta University alumna and a Zeta resides in Atlanta. The SGRhos are also UGA alumnas.
