A música “Ms. Jackson” foi lançada como o segundo single do álbum *Stankonia* e alcançou o topo das paradas americanas na semana de 17 de fevereiro de 2001.
O single recebeu o Grammy de 2002 na categoria Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group, comprovando seu sucesso crítico e comercial.
Para criar o ritmo de fundo, os produtores usaram um sample de “Strawberry Letter 23” dos Brothers Johnson, aplicando pitch shifting e reversão, além de incluir uma versão modificada da “Bridal Chorus” (a marcha de casamento) do ópera *Lohengrin* de Wagner, tocada no piano.
“Ms. Jackson” ajudou a impulsionar as vendas de *Stankonia* depois que o primeiro single, “B.O.B.”, não conseguiu entrar no Billboard Hot 100, apesar de ter sido bem avaliado pela crítica.
A canção faz referência à mãe real de Erykah Badu, a ex-namorada de André 3000, contextualizando a letra nas complexas dinâmicas de separação e os ressentimentos que podem surgir entre famílias.
A faixa também foi bem-sucedida internacionalmente, ocupando o primeiro lugar na Alemanha e chegando ao segundo lugar no Reino Unido, onde foi superada pela música “Whole Again” do Atomic Kitten.
