Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl” is saucy and unapologetically bold, dishing out her confidence, sexual prowess, and dominance in the game. The track is a celebration of her allure and fierce individuality while throwing shade at her rivals with tongue-in-cheek braggadocio and fearless innuendos. It’s about her being in control, whether that’s in a romantic relationship, in handling her competitors, or in the hip-hop industry.
The first verse and hook describe Nicki’s prowess in intimate affairs, signifying her dominance in relationships. Notably, she isn’t shy about expressing her sexual freedom using phrases like “I can lick it, I can ride it,” which is a bold and open talk about her control and skill in bed. The repeated phrase “F-R-E, A-K” implies the man in the song wants a “freak,” and Nicki unapologetically owns up to it.
Verse 2 is where the sheeny armor of Nicki’s confidence blazes. She’s declaring herself the “baddest” alive, takes pride in her appearance, and proclaims her mental strength with the phrase, “I got a princess face, a killer body, samurai mind.” The verse takes us into a pool of Minaj’s invincible persona where she overshadows her competitors and isn’t afraid of going extreme lengths, like dating their man if they dare to challenge her.
The choruses in the middle serve as an emphatic repeat of the first verse, reinforcing her control and command in both her professional life and her personal relationships, relishing in the longing her absence creates.
Verse 3 takes a detour into high-fashion name-drops, flaunting her wealth and taste with brands like Chanel and Burberry. Throughout this verse, she’s dissing her haters, disregarding ‘fuckboys’ who aren’t on her level, and asserting her dominance by keeping her rivals ‘on their toes.’ The mention of “Rocky A$AP, nigga, word to Rih'” is a salute to Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, a nod to her A-list circle.
The song closes off in the same fashion as it started. It’s a repeating echo of the chorus, resonating the audacious essence of Nicki Minaj. Whether it’s about her appeal, her prowess in the ‘sheets or streets,’ or her standing in the hip-hop realm, she is uncompromisingly Nicki – a ‘Super Freaky Girl.’
