So, what really happened? Well, it's said that Nicki's record label, Young Money, wanted her to release a more pop-friendly song, and Starships was the result. Nicki, on the other hand, wanted to stick to her hip-hop roots and didn't want to compromise her art. This led to a major clash between her and the label.
Despite the massive success of Starships, Nicki has publicly expressed her dislike for the song. She's even gone on to say that it's not her favorite song in her discography. This has led to a lot of speculation among fans, with some even starting petitions to get her to perform the song live.
