The song "sTaR" by Megan Thee Stallion celebrates self-confidence and being comfortable with oneself. Throughout the lyrics, she proclaims herself as a superstar and asks her partner to treat her as such. The metaphor of a shooting star is used to illustrate how special she feels when she is with her partner. She also suggests that her partner is a star too, as she speaks about how he must have something special for the world to see. The line "I'm a motherfuckin' superstar" is repeated throughout the song to emphasize the message of self-empowerment.
The second verse shifts toward the more sexual nature of the relationship as Megan Thee Stallion talks about her sexual appetite and the way her partner pleases her. Yet, she still desires to be treated like a superstar in her relationship. This desire intensifies towards the end of the song as she demands respect from her partner.
Overall, "sTaR" is a celebration of self-confidence, sexuality, and the desire for mutual respect in a relationship.

Idk about this song particularly, the singing and auto tune is bad, and I mean, "imma superstar, imma mf super star" sounds like something j freestyle as a joke in the shower lol.
I like a lot of her songs , but this is not a sound shes good at yet
