Nicki Minaj Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up
Back coupes up, and chuck the deuce up
Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beating like a drum and it's coming your way
Can't you hear that boom, boom-badoom boom, boom badoom-boom?
(Yeah that's the super bass)
Boom-badoom boom, boom badoom-boom?

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!
Yes, I did, yes, I did

Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" is a catchy, sexy, playful song that is an ode to a cool, confident, and successful man. The first verse describes a man who comes to the club with his top down, AC on and an impressive sound system, who stacks his money and is ill and real. Nicki is attracted to him because he's cold, dope, and might even sell coke, and she admires his confidence because he always travels first class. She's looking for "the kind of dude" who can make it "drip, drip" and kiss her on the lip, and he turns out to be the "trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship." She introduces herself as Nicki Minaj and tells him she likes his style and "American guy" look.
The second verse describes another kind of man that Nicki is attracted to - an entrepreneur, mogul, and solo artist. She loves a man who doesn't try too hard and shows confidence just by giving her that look. She also points out that she loves his "feminine side," as she thinks it makes him even more attractive. The chorus talks about his super bass, which represents his ability to woo her and keep her heartbeat running, as he has the right kind of energy and vibe.
Overall, the song is a celebration of confidence, sex appeal, and success. Nicki Minaj wants a powerful man who knows what he wants and how to get it, and she's not afraid to be playful and bold in expressing those desires.

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.
