Stop lyin' on your dick-ass niggas
Nigga-nigga

Look at y'all lookin'-ass niggas
Stop lookin' at my-ass-ass niggas
Look at y'all lyin'-ass niggas
Talkin' 'bout it's paid off but it's financed, lyin'-ass nigga
Bunch of non-mogul-ass niggas
Frontin' like they got a plan, Boost Mobile-ass nigga
Nigga, nigga
Look at y'all can't get a job so you plottin' how to rob-ass niggas
I ain't gotta check for y'all, but if I'ma check for y'all

In the club with a credit card scam-ass nigga
No dick in the pants-ass nigga

Even if that nigga flew me and my bitches all the way out to Dubai
Pussy, you tried, pussy-ass nigga you lie
Pussy-ass nigga, you high
Bitch, I'm me, hundred on the wrist, I ski
Art on the wall, Basqui, fuck who see
Look at you fake dope dealers

Talkin' 'bout ki's, say it's ki's in the van
But he really move grams and he split it with his mans

All I, all I know is there should be no reason
All I know is there should be no reason
All I, all I know is there should be, all I know
All I, all I know is there should be no reason




All I know, you know, and you know, look at why
Reason

Overall Meaning

The first line of the lyrics in the song "Lookin' Ass" by Nicki Minaj expresses the feeling of the artist which everyone should have, that there should be no reason for people to be fake, survive, and lie in today's world. Nicki portrays the idea of authentic people rather than the fake ones who pretend to be someone they are not. She is urging people to be honest about their situation, be it their financial state, their joblessness, or any other aspect of life. She calls out people for being delusional and trying to portray an image they cannot live up to.


Further, Nicki targets men who try to impress women with fake lifestyles and materialistic belongings. She belittles men who smoke, who can't afford a bottle, and who manipulate people or women's emotions. She stresses that she is not up for these kinds of men or the lifestyles they are promoting.


Nicki indirectly radiates female empowerment, independence, and from the general tone of her lyrics and the music video of the song. It shows her with her entourage of women and her iconic Black Panther-inspired outfit. The video references the history of African Americans' struggle for equality and emancipation in the US, and the lyrics express the collective frustration of the African American community over decades of oppression and injustice.

@theneedledrop

honestly, one of nicki's better songs. you might not agree, but you can't say it didn't come from a legitimate feeling / point of view.

@roberta7841

I totally agree with your statement. I'm not a fan of everything Niki does but as an avid listener and fan of good music, her flow and intensity was great.

@Afrotastic540

bigbob69erer its funny, cause you're talking to a pretty big music reviewer on youtube. All though I am not a fan of nicki at all, I can at least understand what he's saying

@dreamergirl05
