The song "Like A Star" by Fetty Wap featuring Nicki Minaj is an upbeat hip-hop track with a catchy hook. The song is about Fetty Wap's love for a special girl, who he sees as a star. They are both flirtatious with each other, and he offers to give her his undivided attention -which he refers to as "work"-. The chorus repeats the phrase "just like a star", emphasizing how special and unique she is. He describes their journey together as being like a spaceship to Mars; together, they can conquer the world.
Nicki Minaj's verse on the song adds some extra flair and clever wordplay. She asserts her power and owning of her own game, as well as her cutting-edge style in clothing - mentioning noteworthy names in fashion such as Balmain and Saint Laurent. She also references being previously perceived as a "bitch," but that she has "nicened up" since then.
Overall, the song is about being confident in one's individuality, celebrating a special connection between two people, and being unapologetically yourself. The use of space and star metaphors adds a cosmic feel and emphasizes the uniqueness of the individual.
