Nicki Minaj - Starships

Pretty sure 'Starships,' and 'Right By My Side' are the only official singles. 'Beez In The Trap,' and 'Stupid Hoe' were just promo singles that got airplay with videos.

That's even messier. :lol:

Why would she release a video for the promo singles instead of the official ones? :lol:

All the radio versions worldwide do this, it's funny as f*ck but some people must think it's the most unnecessary and stupid use of "****" lool

But that's weird, because I paid to legally buy the censored version to play it at work and it censors out multiple things but not 'Onika' - you'd think radio would have been sent the same version.

The version Nova plays is definitely their own effort, it's heavily chopped up - they originally completely removed the beatdrop part!

Yeah, that's the version Capital FM plays here without the drop

She said in a radio interview the music video for Starships will be release next week, before wednesday

INTERVIEW

She seems so embarassed when they ask her the question :lol:

She should be nervous; she's been stalling the MV release since the song came out.

Well in all actuality, as much as we're annoyed about the constant pushing back of the video, this is a great time to release it if you really think about it. The song has great airplay and is almost top 5 on pop still getting 100+ updates, and is still near the top 10 on iTunes, so if the video is decent, it could help it tremendously.

So Nicki talks like Mariah Carey now?

by **MrRager** » Sat Apr 21, 2012 9:17 pm

The Video is not an issue. The song is doing fine without it. Plus the US is by far her biggest market and the song is smashing on AirPlay. So the Video will be perfect timing for the US ;-)
