The **** are you even talking about? Yes i like "BITT". I also on the other hand I listen to a great deal of pop and I know a failed attempt or attempts at it. If "Starships" and the other Pop-Hop tracks weren't such repugnant tries I would bop to them.
What am I talking about? I don't know if you think I'm attacking you, and that's why you're not understanding, but all I'm saying is that if you don't like "Starships", then that's fine — don't listen to it. I mean, it's just music, it's not that serious. Listen to what you like, don't listen to what you don't like. All this extra hate is doing the most. That's all I'm saying.
Like, I literally said the same thing in the past three or so posts. I don't understand what you're not getting.

I don't mind her doing raps to dance music really, but could she at least try not to follow the footsteps of pop stars?
Okay, but did she not just do features like Mutha****a Up, Dance (A$$), and that one Birdman song? Even her feature on Madonna's I Don't Give A is fire. And it's not like she's going to stop doing those kinds of features — she's still doing them.
Nicki is going to do some pop. But she's going to do hip-hop when she wants to as well. And she's always going to do rap. Basically, she's doing whatever she wants too. Therefore, Nicki is a rapper. I'm not seeing what the issue is. Maybe because ATRL is a pop forum is why you guys are focusing so much on Starships. But the general public still sees her a rapper, so...
Maybe I don't fully understand what you're saying. Because I still don't see why she can't be a rapper and still have a couple songs like Starships in her discography.

But where's this hate i'm spewing towards her? Yes I know you're not attacking. You're just typing basically the same thing in every redundant post. Im glad you noticed. But see this is like beating a dead horse with Nicki fans. Y'all will never see the big picture. Am done

And you're just sounding a bit defensive over nothing. I mean, how can you be beating a dead horse when you're not making a point? What is this big picture that we're not getting? From your posts in this thread, all I've seen is "I like Beez; I don't like Starships because it's trash." Like, okay. That's nice. Go listen to Beez; pay Starships dust. Over and out, bro.
I think people are mad because her albums and genre are considered Hip-Hop/Rap. And they should be...her platform is Hip-Hop...however she also wants to do pop music...big deal, get over, her coins are still intact and the same people that bought Pink Friday will buy this album...GET OVER IT
Baby girl said it best @1:56. "I'm not a female rapper; I am an entertainer...a female rapper is a bitch that raps...I'm an entertainer...I'm very multi-talented."
She been told you hoes that she's not fitting into this box. She is much more than just rapping. See, Nicki is a smart BUSINESS WOMAN. This is why this woman is winning, while other's faves are at the bottom of the barrel scraping and struggling to be something.

Im not even a fan of Nicki's but I follow her cause shes so interesting. Take NOTES all you fans & haters alike. What she said in this interview is what Ive ALWAYS known about her, SHE IS "MULTI-FACETED". Not a rap bitch like Lil Kim, Eve, Foxy Brown, ect, the true rap women of hip hop, NO.....she is just an entertainer marketing herself as a "Rapper". I always knew she was a devious genius. She literally proves my point In this interview. She's a beautiful, intelligent, CON artist. Period.
It's not her fault you haters are too one track minded to comprehend what's she's doing and been wanted to do.

Hmmmm I wonder why people never hated on lauryn hill or being "multifaceted". Like I said if nicki wanted to branch out into other genres she should have done it from the beginning because I'm a hundred percent sure she knew that she wanted to do pop back then. Not only did she bait and switch she also watered her content down but she shouldn't worry because most of the people who love her now really don't know that much about hip hop.

Dude. Thank YOU!
See, me, I don't hate any music celebrities. I either love you (i.e. the artists in my sig.) or I don't pay you any dust; it's either love or indifference. The only music celeb I don't like is Lil Kim and that's because of their beef. But that's a different story. If I like you're music I listen, if I don't like your music, I'm out. Not to go on tangent, this is why I don't get why people are like "I hate Bieber." It's like dude, good for you. If you don't like his music, don't listen. Simple as. I never really understand the concept of haters (unless a celeb came at your fave side ways).
I don't like rap but you don't see me making countless posts and threads about my dislike for it. I pay it no dust and move on with my life.
Music is never that serious guys. If you like music, listen to it. If you don't, don't pay it no mind. LOL. You'd think common sense things like this would be COMMON amongst people but it's obviously not.

Okay.
(1) So because Lauryn Hill did it one way, she has to follow that way? Okay since my middle school classmate lost his virginity at 12, you should've lost your virginity at 12 too. I mean, my middle school classmate did it, so you should've too! Dude, your logic is so flawed. Just because one person did something one way doesn't mean everyone else has to follow the blueprint. Lauryn is her own person. Nicki is her own person. Just in case you didn't know.
(2) How are you going to tell someone about themselves? You don't know 100 percent for sure that she wanted to do pop because you're not her. Only she knows that. And once again, she's stated that she's wanted to do pop before her mainstream career. I don't know how many times we have to keep saying this. I don't know if I should start saying this in a different language because you guys are clearly not getting it.
(3) The rest is your opinion and I don't care to adress it. All you haters are the same and I'm pretty sure you haters think all us stans are the same. So there you have it folks!

People didnt hate on Lauryn because she was a much more mature artist. Her content was Hip-Hop and R&B/Soul. Nicki is making Hip-Hop, R&B and Pop for 16-25 audiences, which at this point in her career is perfectly fine. I'm sure her content will grow with her though but as of now there's nothing wrong with her making fun music. I'm sure she doesnt care about critics, hip-hop heads or the people who like the old Nicki back when she was giving out the music for free. But I'm sure she'll "mature"-up her content by album number 4...which she'll make it to because of her real fanbase and her pop audience...not because of her old "fans" who stanned because they didnt have to come out their pockets.
I dont get why people are so butthurt over her making pop music. Especially when she's saying she didnt wanna be just a female rapper...just stop listening...there are plenty of female rappers to choose from, oh wait, it isn't...WHY?? Because they all have the same hype and anticipation Nicki did when she was coming up and kept repeating themselves...Eve, Kim, Foxy, MC Lyte...they all kept releasing the same content and thats only cute for a couple albums...Latifah, Missy...re-invent themselves and still are female rap icons...as Nicki Minaj will be.
What was left to say in this discussion?! Nicki shouldn't dare to date a white guy, that would be the ultimate betrayal, you know black people can't date or marry white guys.
