I mean, Starships saved me from giving up hope on music nowadays:
1) The iconic,
easy-to-pick-up rap in the verses is casual enough for any fan and deep for any true Barb.
2) Fun fact: The first verse of Slayships is a
freestyle, she was just rapping randomly and she broke records with it.
When will your flop fave?
3) The flawfree
vocals on the chorus.
4) The insiprational raps. "**** who you want, and **** who you like!" The new queen of
Gays.
Gaga/Madonna who?!
5) The undeniable
cuteness in the video.

6)
Showing off her curves in a bikini to show all these girls that model-thin is boring. Mother Teresa tbh.



7) The fun, happy vibe to it is the best there is.
8)
7+ MILLION COPIES SOLD (WW&US)
9) As I write this, the song still didn't fall from the UK chart.
10)
It stayed freaking 21 WEEKS on the TOP 10 since DEBUTING in it. That's 5+ months. What kinda longevity?
Lyrical Masterpiece too!
"Starships, were meant to fly, hands up and touch the sky!"
The meaning behind this is that the Starships are a metaphor for problems in life, "Starships were meant to fly," as in, Issues in your life are bound to happen, there's no way escaping it.
"Hands up, and touch the sky!"
So while you're at it, enjoy it! The starship is already flying, so hands up and enjoy the ride, a metaphor for life problems, as in "a problem is bound to happen, don't get depressed! Enjoy life even when there are problems! Getting depressed over them won't get those problems to disappear!
Mother Onika inspiring all of us.
