What kinda slay?
It's actually nice how the Barbz are coming through this era and buying all of Nicki's singles. During the PF:RR, they were all quick to buy Starships, but they were silent when the other singles were released.

Nah it wasn't like that. We bought the singles that were released before the album came out, but that era was messy (which is why I laugh when people call this era messy, when everything has been smooth minus the pushback). Both BITT and RBMS weren't actually on iTunes until the album release.
Not to mention her star power and fanbase has grown since then, which is why we always get things into the T10.

It's not a bad song at all, tbh.
Just really disappointing and underwhelming to find out this is the third single. Pretty sure it would've been better as an album track. It's not really single worthy.

I would buy it if I could. I'm so pissed that her team is ****ed up in so many ways.

Before I listened to it yesterday, I already some of your guys comments and my excitement went a bit down, I didn't have expectations anymore. Maybe that's the reason I genuinely liked it? I agree that it is better as an album track than as a single (I expect more from an urban single than this, in terms of it not being a banger) but in no way is this a bad song. I wish it was more epic, a song like Clique but I like it for what it is. Unlike some of you, I like the beat. The artists on it really make the song though. All three of them delivered.
That is what highly annoys me though, some of you guys already hated Wayne his verse before this was released. He delivered a GREAT verse on this and I'm not saying this because he's my favorite artist, I say this as an objective listener. If you truly thinks his verse sucks and he ruins this song, then you really need to clean your ears out. Usually you guys complain that features are boring but all three verses are anything BUT boring. I use all three of them. I like the hook too.
I think you guys always set wrong expectations before the song drops.
My only thing is this though; I miss the 'next level' she talked about when she was describing The Pinkprint in the beginning. Lookin Ass really gave me that feeling of her doing something completely different that was indeed next level, it was so good. Then Pills N Potions came which I initially loved but now it's not better than the average Pink Friday type of track in my opinion, apart from the rap verses. Anaconda did was it had to do, I loved that (I really, really loved it lol) but 'next level, no Nicki. This? It's good, a great hip-hop song but it's not as if I hear anything new from here. I'm not saying she 'raps about the same thing over and over again' but more the feeling of the song. It's not really fresh or anything.
I just want to hear something where I truly think 'wow I never heard anything like this from Nicki'. I initially thought The Pinkprint would be that album, especially when she said she would focus on hip-hop and it would be next-level but now I think it'll be a more hardcore, better and more confident version of Pink Friday. I'm 100% I'm going to absolutely love it anyway but I'm afraid she sets the bar with it being 'a blueprint for female rappers' a bit too high.
We'll see though.

Has drake tweeted about it?
I know Nicki probably has.
The numbers are so what 200k for #1 if that. I want this to get to #1. At least it will go platinum quicker with itunes xmas boosts and all

It was a general statement about ATRL, like Jimmy pointed out. Clearly it must have hit you in the heart, but a hit dog will holler, I guess.

Willy, you are something else
Chris's part sounds like it was originally for another song, and they just pasted it to this one.
My favorite line is the one about having a ménage with Drake and Wayne if she would even **** them.

That line spoke to my personal life but that's for another day and another time. I don't blame Onika, though. Sounds like a good time with them both.

So this song will be a radio smash ?
If Nicki comes through with the streams aswell, she could have another top 10.

Well I bopped this song in my car today on my way home from class. It's decent but I still feel underwhelmed and was expecting more.
