Up In Flames > I'm The Best >> Roman Holiday
Up In Flames obviously wins... just by a hair for me though. I'm The Best is such a great song and reminds me of when Nicki just barely started.. and it sounds so different than anything else done at that time. Roman Holiday is great although its far less superior, lyrically, to both of those songs.

I wanna get the 100ml Pink Friday cause I love the box, but the gift set is only 5 dollars more and comes with lotion and hair mist (keep in mind that I won't using any 3 of these things). So do I buy the one with better packaging, or the one that comes with more stuff?

You could buy the gifset and give those things to a female friend that also likes Nicki... if not, just buy the 100ml.
I just have the 100ml and I love the box so much.

Yes, I brought up something I've noticed. But I wish not to discuss it further, because I'm not that concerned.
Problem? If so, don't care.

M4L playing on the radio.
M4L is the only song I ever here urban radio channels still play. Why was M4L everything? Is it because it was from her first album and I have an emotional attatchment to it or is it actually that much better than the crap she thinks is superior to it?

I fly with the stars in the skies
I am no longer trying to survive
I believe that life is a prize
But to live doesn't mean you're alive
Don't worry 'bout me and who I fire
I get what I desire, it's my empire
And yes I call the shots, I am the umpire
I sprinkle holy water upon the vampire
In this very moment I'm king
In this very moment I slay Goliath with the sling
In this very moment I bring, put it on everything
That I will retire with the ring
And I will retire with the crown, yes
No, I'm not lucky, I'm blessed, yes
Clap for the heavy weight champ, me
But I couldn't do it all alone, we
Young money raised me, grew up out in Baisley
South side Jamaica, Queens and it's crazy
Cause I'm still hood, Hollywood couldn't change me
Shout out to my haters, sorry that you couldn't phase me
Ain't being cocky, we just vindicated
Best believe that what we done this moment will be syndicated
I don't know, this night just remind me of
Everything they deprived me of
Put your drinks up
It's a celebration every time we link up
We done did everything they could think of
Greatness is what we on the brink of
The FLOW.

What's not to like about that term?
I want her to have songs with meaning & lyrical SUBSTANCE, songs that people can listen to, look at the lyrics, & connect with on an emotional level.
I just don't want songs bragging about #1 fragrance, how she's the best, how she has the best coochie, etc. because it's getting repetitive.
Meaningful lyrics would earn her more respect IMO. It's not ALL about clever punchlines, wordplay, etc. because right now most people think that Nicki's MUSIC isn't relatable so lyrics with strong emotional influence will show them that she's not just a GIMMICK with no real subject matter.

I think High School is great but is nowhere near her best work (M4L).. Top 10 for sure, though. If she had another verse it would be Top 5, for me.

EXACTLY, M4L was her most successful URBAN song because it has MEANINGFUL, RELATABLE lyrics.
You don't know how many people I saw quoting M4L lyrics when it was a single, simply because people could connect & feel for the song.
An emotional connection to a song > a song that you bop to.
