I just realized how much of Nicki's success come from accidents/unintentional actions
Your Love - never meant to be sent in the email/someone leaked it
Roman's Revenge - "I feel pretty" sample wouldn't get approved so the chorus became more simpler and bold
Super Bass - never meant to be a single until Taylor Swift
Good that it's gaining on Rhythmic. I really wish pop would pick it up more
Don't overdose on my great sig...overdose on Pills n potion on itunes

I am actually done.
I'm pretty sure this is the type of music that best reflects who Nicki is. She is and hasn't been just a hip-hop artist since her mixtape days (and even then, some of her material arguably has influences of pop sprinkled here and there.) Nicki is a rapper who likes making pop and rap music (often times they are blended) and that's who she is. Y'all act like Nicki is pretending to be something she is not... She loves pop music as much she does rap music and that's why she makes it.
"New Rap Hard 09 Nicki" has always been here, but y'all just want to pay her dust. Realize there will be a couple more records on the album that are in the same vein as Lookin' Ass just like there will be a couple tracks in the same vein as Pills N Potions. Balance is needed and Nicki is aware of that.
I LOVE it quality-wise not just because Nicki's name is attached to it. Best believe if LIl' Mama put this song out with those vocals, the exact same lyrics, and etc., I'd eat it up. Hell, I'd eat it up if it was Soulja Boy or Migos or the flavor of the month hip-hop group.
And no, only delusional fans expected another Starships. The rest of us knew that the single would be in a similar vein to Your Love, which funny enough... The producer of Your Love recently said that Nicki loves making Your Love/Pills N Potions-esque music. It is where he thinks she shines the best.
But, I mean, it is whatever. This isn't a rant or anything. Just responding to your suggestion that this isn't the type of music Nicki enjoys making and feels like is the best reflection of her. She doesn't want to sit here and making generic pop tracks like Starships and generic rap records like Beez in the Trap all day. Let the women live and stop trying to box her in. She will always make the kind of music she wants first.

So much drama here.
You better request this on pop radio + stream it on Spotify/Youtube.
I don't if ap, but this is being re-released on POP on July 1st. So yeah, they are not giving up with this (which is doing fine).
That's weird that they'd re-release it but I guess its for the best.

Anyway, glad it is being re-released to pop. I'd prefer they try a bit harder before moving on to the next single.
It's weird re-release to radio.

Missy doesn't see it for Nicki after the Kim situation. She's loyal to Kim and would only do a song with Nicki if Kim and all the girls are on it.
Which means Hell has to freeze over.
I'm sure Missy still love still love still love still love still uh ove Nicki
My favorite YouTube comment was probably "Product N Placement"
If no pills and no myx potion then she should have worn her NMC too.
I mean...it's on sale every week which isn't a good sign but the pills n potions video could have given it a boost.

I was expecting alot of lyrics in it too. It does bop, though.
