Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This one is for the boys with the boomin' system,
Top down, AC, with the coolin' system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Stacks on deck like he savin' up
And he ill, he real, he might got a deal
He pop bottles, and he got the right kind of build
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach
He a muthafuckin' trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship

When he make it drip, drip kiss him on the lip, lip
That's the kind of dude I was lookin' fo'
And yes, you'll get slapped if you're lookin', ho
I said, "Excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
I mean my, my, my, my, you're like pelican fly
I mean, you're so shy, and I'm loving your tie
You're like slicker than the guy with the thing on his eye, oh!"
Yes, I did, yes, I did
Somebody please tell him who the eff I is

Back coupes up, and chuck the deuce up

Beating like a drum and it's coming your way

This one is for the boys in the Polos
Entrepreneur niggas, and the moguls
He could ball with the crew, he could solo
But I think I like him better when he dolo
And I think I like him better with the fitted cap on
He ain't even gotta try to put the mack on
He just gotta give me that look
When he give me that look, then the panties comin' off, off, uh
Excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
You know, I really got a thing for American guys
I mean sigh sickenin' eyes
I can tell that you're in touch with your feminine side, uh!

Overall Meaning

The song "Super Bass" by Nicki Minaj is essentially a love letter to a man who is confident, successful, and in control. The lyrics highlight the appeal of a man who has a booming sound system, a luxurious car, and the ability to pop bottles at the clubs. He is also described as "ill" and "dope," which may suggest that he has a certain street credibility that others lack. When he gazes at the singer, she melts and is willing to take her panties off just for him.


Nicki Minaj's playful and flirtatious attitude is evident throughout the song. She is confident in her own abilities as she introduces herself as a "mack daddy" who can handle herself around men. The chorus of the song is a repetition of the phrase "boom, boom-badoom boom, boom badoom-boom" that symbolizes the sound of a beating heart. She acknowledges that she needs the man in her life, and she hopes that he will stay with her.

Just letting the O.P. know
i mean, if niki was to see the post wouldn't it be better that it was properly worded, given the intention of the post and nature of it
that's all i was saying
i do understand that I and O are next to each other on a keyboard, fair enough.

i was just pointing it out, ok
no need to take offense to anything, (in case you did) or in case anyone wants to
that's now what i was going for.
