It's been 10 years since she's released a full-length studio album. The Cookbook was released on July 4, 2005 and peaked at No. 1 on Top Rap Albums chart and No. 2 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
After her 2015 Super Bowl halftime set, Elliott's albums and song downloads earned a 996 percent sales rise in the United States, according to Nielsen Music.
