“So much of my discography. I wish I never recorded ‘Anaconda.’ I like the video but, ugh. My first ever solo song on Billboard was ‘Your Love.’ To this day I like the video but I hate the song. I could go on and on. I hate ‘Starships,’ I mean ew, ‘Starships?’ I’m like, ‘Why did I do that?’ I really think that every time I hear it.” Minaj revealed.
The producer of “Starships” RedOne while on an interview this week on one US media outlet, revealed that despite the song being good; he goes as per the singer’s desire whether to play it or not.
