From the context I'm getting, I'm guessing it's gonna be a song about substance abuse and trying to get through it all. So, what's this song about? Pills n potions We're overdosing OhвЂ¦ okay, now I get why this song's being more serious. No crazy hairstyle, no exaggerated faces, justвЂ¦ herвЂ¦ *cuts to her showing her breasts* вЂ¦and her boobs, but I was expecting that *pez dispenser rabbit, rabbit picture* Okay, that'sвЂ¦ kinda random, but, but not enough to be distracting. So let's prepare for yet another 'look at me look at me' video where she does silly, outlandish things just to get people talking about her *video starts* Pills n potions We're overdosing Whoa, hey, look at Nicki. It feels like lessons learned.Hi, I'm the Rap Critic, and just in time for my Missy Elliott video where I mentioned how people were comparing her to Nicki Minaj, comes a new single from Nicki Minaj, called ' Pills N Potions '. вЂњItвЂ™s just a very truthful story,' she said. Over the weekend, at Powerhouse in Los Angeles, Nicki described the song to MTV News. I have come across a lot of people who I've given amazing opportunities to who continue to bite the hand that fed them.' 'I'm talking about lots of people,' she added. 'Just thinking like, what does it all mean? You know? What the hell does it all mean?' 'I was just reflecting on people people in my life who have come and gone,' she said. Minaj didn't help clear things up much, when she called into 'The Breakfast Club' on Power 105.1 Wednesday morning (May 21). 'But I sped off in a Benzi/ I see the envy when IвЂ™m causin' a frenzy/ So I pop pills for 'em/ Cop cribs in the hills on вЂem' Like everyone else, she had doubters along the way, and now that she's made it major, it's not hard to think some former detractors came crawling back. This sounds like Nicki might be addressing people from her pre-fame past. 'Soon as you out a n-aвЂ™s life is when they start to miss you/ They see you doin' good now itвЂ™s kinda hard to diss you/ N-as be sick when they remember all the bad they wished you/ N-as be mad when they can't come and live lavish with you' Though it seemed like the issues were in the past, Nicki could be referencing Drizzy as someone who swears his love (like he did on 'Miss Me'), but is really just a competitor in the game - even if that may be a friendly, sibling-rivalry sort of situation. On Drake's 'Tuscan Leather,' off of last year's Nothing Was The Same, he rapped, 'Not even talkin' to Nicki, communication is breakin'/ I dropped the ball on some personal shвЂ“-, I need to embrace it.' 'I told 'em itвЂ™s no friends in the game, you ainвЂ™t learned that yet/ All the bridges you came over, donвЂ™t burn that yet/ N-as want respect, but n-as ain't earned that yet/ Self-righteous and entitled but they swearin' on the bible that they love you/ When really they no different from all your rivals/ But I still donвЂ™t wish death on вЂem/ I just reflect on 'em' 'Ayo, they could never make me hate you/ Even though what you was doinвЂ™ wasnвЂ™t tasteful/ Even though you out here lookinвЂ™ so ungrateful/ I'ma keep it movinвЂ™ be classy and graceful'Д¬ould this be addressing her former hairstylist, who is now suing her for $30 million, and making public statements ('out here') attacking her ('lookin' so ungrateful')?

Or maybe it's about hip-hop, which has both embraced and criticized her throughout her career - with much of the criticism coming following her last album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. She may be addressing any number of people or relationships here, from her longtime boyfriend, Safaree 'SB' Samuels, to possibly even her fans, who adore her but expect the world. 'Pills n potions/ We're overdosing/ I'm angry but I still love you/ Pills n potions/ WeвЂ™re overdosing/ Can't stand it but I still love you' Nicki opens the track by singing, with a hook that's repeated throughout: Like many of her fans, we were wondering: Who is she addressing on her lead The Pink Print single? Let's a take a look at some of her lyrics. The Queen of hip-hop addresses situations with a specificity to suggest that the people and circumstances are real - but never actually names names. The song's lyrics are at once pointed and ambiguous.

It's personal to her and it's something to which others can relate. Nicki Minaj's new single, 'Pills N Potions,' is many things.
