That's why alot of them became singers/song-witers start singing. To get the aggression, frustration, happiness and sadness out, in a healthy way. If that makes sense?
@dana jones - I’ve just listened to the lyrics for the 1st time, & right from the start “I can be selfish”, then soon “like Marilyn Monroe” is not pro-Marilyn. Then soon “They fall apart like Marilyn Monroe” is even worse. I love Marilyn, & although I don’t expect that a song be totally free of criticism of Marilyn, she doesn’t deserve to be called selfish & that she fell apart. Bottom line, the song is not pro-Marilyn.
@dana jones - the verse “Sometimes I feel like Marilyn Monroe”. Nicki can NOT possibly KNOW how Marilyn felt. This song exploits Marilyn. It doesn’t embrace her.
@@defenddemocracy4081 the whole song is basically her feeling bad for Marilyn Monroe .. and at the same time she’s feeling depressed like her “is this how Marilyn Monroe felt?”
@@defenddemocracy4081 She took a quote of Marilyn's and used parts of it in the song. This is the quote: " I'm selfish, impatient,and a little insecure. I make mistakes. I'm out of control and at times hard to handle. But,if you can't handle me at my worst,then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. " Marilyn M. I'm pretty sure that's it word for word. If I missed a word or two,I apologize. I've been a fan of Marilyn's for over 30 years, since I was 15. I've never heard this song bc I never really listened to Nicky Minaj's music before. I don't know what to think of it yet,I'll have to let it sit for awhile. I recognized parts of the quote immediately in the song. She must be a fan of Marilyn's to know that quote. Marilyn was a beautiful person inside and out as any true fan that has read about Marilyn knows .
@@danspiano175 Black people hate the song because they feel Nikki promoted Marilyn instead of a black actress like Dorothy Dandridge or Josephine Baker as if she was endorsing White supremacy and the European standard of beauty that Marilyn represented to a lot of people. What they dont understand is that Marilyn has transcended her race and it is her spirit and her soul that is relatable to everyone, even women of color because she came from humble beginnings and still was able to achieve greatness. Even though a big star with everything seemingly in her pocket the thing she wanted most.....TRUE LOVE evaded her most of her life. This is a story that ALL WOMEN regardless of color relate to and that is why we love her and will always remember Marilyn, not just for her physical beauty or white skin, but for the beauty of her heart and her pure white soul .

@SkySquawker because when this song came out I was at the lowest point of my life and it uplifted me in so many ways it inspired me I don’t know about other people but yeah
This song gave me literal goosebumps! I love Marilyn Monroe, and this song makes me think of her! A true work of art, both thus song and Monroe. May she rest in peace

@Shelby Ward - I’ve just listened to the lyrics for the 1st time. From the 1st verse “I can be selfish” then soon “like Marilyn Monroe.” Marilyn wasn’t selfish. She had to be defensive because of the way she was often mistreated by the Hollywood studio system. That isn’t selfishness. Then “They fall apart like Marilyn Monroe.” Nicki is way out of line to equate her complaints to Marilyn’s tragic demise. This song is a catchy melody with a title & multiple references to Marilyn that exploit her, not embrace her.
@Rachel Ward - the verse “Sometimes I feel like Marilyn Monroe.” There is NO way Nicki Minaj can possibly KNOW how Marilyn felt. This song exploits Marilyn.
@Rachel Ward - Or if Nicki Minaj is saying that sometimes she feels like she is Marilyn Monroe, it is ludicrous to equate her situation to Marilyn’s. Minaj should not have made any equivalence to someone whose demise was extremely tragic.
Shes not trying to take her place ;) She is just inspired by her, and also. I think you need anger management... She is not a fat ----- Ok? Leave her alone. Shes not ugly shes beautiful, and she is not bald, she has hair, she just likes wigs.. So. Just calm down ;)
I used to listen this song before because I like the tune, the beat and Nicki's voice... but now, message of the song hits me so hard. Haha is this how Marilyn Monroe felt? And hopefully I will not end up like Marilyn Monroe.
Facts.. I'm literally understanding the whole lyrics now and I can feel all the emotions in every word she's saying 🙁 Listening back to this song and her verse on 'Girls On Fire' mentioning Marilyn Monroe, seems like she was going through some deep shit throughout some part of her life/career 🙁
This song is ahead of it times. This feels like hyperpop/pc music song with the electronic synths, the trap beat, the feminine pitched up vocals and the piano and strings to tie it together as a pop song
I'm so proud of Nicki because Nicki made the best related South and I hope everybody know that you're better not because if you love me just like you hurt my feelings because Nikki wrote this song because Marilyn Monroe is dead and they were show friends on Facebook looking at people but still they were best friends that was close to each other and they make up for it and guess what I do but she killed herself because why and she weighs I do love Nikki but I don't know what to do Nicki Minaj
I have bipolar call it a curse or just call me blessed if you can't handle my worse u don't deserve my best, thank u Nicki this sums up my life as Barry Mitchell x
its like all the good things, they fall apart liike li- li- li- like Marilyn monroe. Thats my favorite Line! I love the glitch part so much. When she all the good things fall apart, the glitch represented things actually falling apart
omg!! this is like mii favorite song by nicki minsj i juz wush thst she make way more songs like this...she is a very grate singer i agree...i can really relate to this song
She sang pop. She rapped. She is an actress. She is a mother. She is an icon. Nicki is a Legend❤️

Some of Nicki's songs make me wonder if she is depressed, this song included.
That's why alot of them became singers/song-witers start singing. To get the aggression, frustration, happiness and sadness out, in a healthy way.
If that makes sense?
Everybody gets depressed sometimes if you have a soul or heart even celebrities
@@laceylewis8302 it does
we are all depressed at some point of our life man unless you are living the perfect life.

This song is super underrated

Ik like she's rap queen but her vocals r just heavenly 🌞
"call it a curse or just call me blessed, if you can't handle my worst, you aint getting my best" favorite line
