Nicki Minaj has again blasted “Starships” and pledged to stop performing it.

E11EVEN in Miami recruited the Queens native to sing for a New Year’s Eve party on Sunday (December 31). Her DJ played the 2012 song, but after rapping a few lines unenthusiastically, the Pink Friday 2 rapper halted it.

“Sike, sike, sike,” she told the disheartened crowd. I no longer sing that tune! I dislike it! Want me to do what?

Nicki Minaj has previously discussed the blockbuster song. Minaj said she regretted making “Starships” and “Anaconda” in a 2020 Pollstar Live Q&A panel.

“So much of my discography,” she remarked when asked which songs she regrets. “I regret recording ‘Anaconda.’ Like the video, but yuck. My first Billboard solo song was ‘Your Love.’ I still like the video but dislike the music. I could continue. ‘Starships?’ I loathe them. I wonder, ‘Why did I do that?’ I think so every time I hear it.”

Nicki Minaj’s 9x platinum song “Starships” peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hоt 100, but it caused cоnflict with Hоt 97 host Peter Rosenberg months after its debut.

At 2012 Summer Jam, the radio host labeled the song “one of the most sellout songs in Hip Hop history,” prompting Minaj to cancel her performance.

They fought for a while, then Minaj visited Hоt 97 a year later and reconciled.

Recently, Nicki Minaj created Billboard Hоt 100 history with Pink Friday 2.

Chart Data reports that Nicki’s current album boasts the most Hоt 100 singles of any female rap album, with 17 of its 22 tracks.

Nicki Minaj broke another Billboard 200 record before the historic milestone. Nicki has the most No. 1 albums of any female rapper with three after Pink Friday 2 topped the chart with 228,000 album-equivalent units in its first week.

Foxy Brown’s solo album Chyna Doll and The Firm: The Album, a collaboration with Nas, AZ, and Nature, topped the Billboard 200 twice in the 1990s.

Pink Friday 2, Minaj’s long-awaited sequel to her 2010 debut album and her first since 2018’s Queen, was released on December 8—her 41st birthday.
