I prefer Marilyn Monroe and Roman Holiday, but it's not awful. I feel like when it's played really loud (at a concert, for example) it'll just sound like Nicki's voice over progressive noise.

Sounds like a Pixie Lott reject track. Gurl has no consistency or credibility.

You do realise you're leaking bullshit out your ass? Pixie Lott would murder babies for a track like this.

I prefer when Nicki Minaj sings. I've not stopped playing this track for the past 4 hours.

I love this song so much, it remind me of 3 songs in particular, Britney's Till the world ends, Katy's California Gurls and Pink's Raise your glass, which is deifnitely a good thing when stamped all over with Nicki's wacky way lol.

I love this song ! It's going to be a worldwide smash I can see it now, it just gives me that same feel good feeling like Jessie J's "Domino" and Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night" did except this song is better. It does remind me of those tracks it also reminds me of "Titanuim" and "Till The World Ends" and where the track breaks down it sort of reminds me of "Changed The Way You Kissed Me"

@Maxon Pixie Lott is just awful, she couldn't make a song like this thats why she's sut with awful songs like "Kiss The Stars"

It is okay with a decent chorus but the verses are poor. I want her to keep to rapping tho as her pop tracks (e.g. save me) are crap most of the time.

86! I'm actually quite excited to see where this gets to.

I agree they probably should have held it back a bit but I feel it'll probably be one of those songs that people love so much they'll play over and over again too much and get sick of it really quick; me included. They've done the right thing releasing it now, once a video is out (hopefully soon!!), it'll zoom to the #1 spot.

I love Nicki, but on 1'st listen I can;t say I'm feeling it. It may grow on me, but I'm not really feeling her doing all this singing she's doing. She can't sing, so when she sings live it's just a bit messy. I actually love Roman In Moscow and Stupid Hoe.

With the success of Super bass I can see why she's going for this style, I loved the way the rap flowed with the chorus. I just hope she doesn't go too pop and still has songs like Romans Revenge etc.

it seems like Nicki cant win tbh some people want her to go down the poppy route while some people want her to go down the hip hop /roman style . I like both

Pixie would pass over it.

Have you even heard either of Pixie's albums? She has about 15 good tracks... Out of 41. No quality control whatsoever.

(And people bitched about PCD's Doll Domination being 25 tracks...)

Thanks for the link, still stand by what I said though. She's nothing special singing wise imo.

Maybe It's just some of the pop style songs she's done I haven't like too much.

Some people have compared Starships to Katy Perry and Britney Spears etc and that's just not my thing. Just have to see how it goes. It may grow on me. I mean I really liked Check It Out lol.

LOVE this song! Can't stop playing it. The chorus really reminds of me till the world ends.

It sounds like RedOne took some of the biggest songs of 2011 and remixed them together.

The intro/verses have that guitar strumming/synth beat from Moves Like Jagger, the chorus is typical Guetta/Flo Rida poppy euro dance, the post-chorus breakdown is taken from Calvin Harris's production of We Found Love and the middle 8 (and pre-Chorus) is the "wooooahhh" bit from Till The World Ends.

The result is fun, but it's ultimately empty and a transparent bid to get a hit and sell the album. Doesn't have the "oomph" Superbass had, IMO.
