But they don't give a **** about being a judge on Idol, scoring a deal with Macy's for your perfume, sitting with Anna, being on Ellen, etc. That's why it's not relatable.

Well first of all, why does everything have to be relatable? Just because you can't identify with what an artist is speaking about doesn't mean you can't appreciate it.
And anyway, how is what Nicki's rapped about this year not "inspiring" in the same way that having "fat stacks" and "foreign cars" is? In the same way that young men want to have all of that I can assure you there's young girls who want to live the high life that Nicki talks about. You don't literally have to want a Macy's perfume deal or an Idol judge spot to relate to what Nicki's saying; it's called wanting to live that kind of life. It's the exact same a big booty hoes and strippers everywhere.
