Title track Strange is a song for the oddballs and the weirdos, those who don’t fit the social mould and are proud of their outsider status. Missy embraces otherness as she sings:

“Maybe I’m a bit broken
I might be a little bit strange
I just don’t wanna be the token
Odd girl who everybody hates”

Missy’s alternative production style, marked by inventive manipulation of samples and dark soundscapes, is the cornerstone of her distinctive sound. US blog Wolf In A Suit described Missy as creating a "unique soundscape, she grabs our senses out of nowhere and pulls us into her realm in an instant. She has crafted something special and uniquely charming and mesmerizing".

Johannes Brahms, Lana Del Ray and Kanye West are seemingly disparate touchstones that underlie MISSY’s unique sound. The results form a melodramatic aural melange and affirm Missy as one of New Zealand's most exciting new talents.
