FTCU Lyrics

by Nicki Minaj

"FTCU" by Nicki Minaj oozes the dominance and assurance that comes with the hip-hop industry. The track embodies in-your-face, gutsy lyrics, matched only by the boldness in which Minaj proclaims her status and success. Channeling the AAVE phrase "F*ck the club up," the title stands for a way to think about the world of goings-on in music or a disruptive, dynamic force in the music industry, the likes of Nicki Minaj and the energy she brings to hip-hop. The repetitive hook in the song is clear in Minaj's intent; she suggests that to be a disruptive force in the industry is ready to shake things and to be in the spotlight. The mention of "Flocka" is in reference to Waka Flocka Flame, an incredibly high-energy artist known for his music, so here is a sign that Minaj will do the same with her dynamic presence. "FTCU" has her referring to herself as "the Sleeze," recounting some of her takeovers at the top of the rap game. "FTCU" is nothing but call-outs of actual boasts that Minaj has acquired, such as moving these units and having only her videos viewed. The song attests to her commercial success, of course, but also to how strong she is in terms of her influence and reach within the industry. "I give bches the crown; they fk around and lose it" is a lyric-screaming Nicki at the top of her game, offering opportunities to other female rappers to reign at her expense, but no other female rapper can hold onto the success and impact that Nicki had. The track makes explicit reference directly to other female rappers, and a line could even be read as a Megan Thee Stallion diss, making her further argue business competition and Minaj's readiness to show who's boss. In "FTCU," she is loud and strong with a message of self-assuredness, resiliency, and taking dominance by storm, making it a statement to the legacy that Nicki Minaj will leave as one of the flag-bearers in the hip-hop industry.

Ayo, I tell 'em that I'm the Sleeze, they tellin' me, "Okay, prove it"
I leave these b**ches on read, so now they know that they blew it
I tell 'em I'm movin' units, my videos, they gon' view it
Spotify ain't gotta lie, they really streamin' my music (Woo)
I give b**ches the crown, they f**k around and lose it, nah
I am the wave, I only wave when I'm tellin' 'em, "Bye"
b**ch, we ain't twinnin', ain't fraternal or identical
When I'm around, b**ch, you know you become invisible

Mm, who wanna play with Nicki?
Got the power, I could tell my niggas spray like 50 (Brr)
Come on, b**ch, I just put a milli' on my Richie
Minus like fifty, mine was nine-fifty, sissy

f**k this club up
f**k this, f**k this club up (f**k up)
f**k this club up
f**k this, f**k this club up (f**k up)

f**k this, f**k this club up (f**k up)
f**k this club up
f**k this, f**k this club up (f**k up)

Yeah, high heels on my tippies
Dolce and Gabbana, that's on my titties
Cop me Vetements when I ride the dickie
I still got the juice, b**ch, buy a sippie
I will never slippy, like a Mickey
Stay in your Tory lane, b**ch, I'm not Iggy
I know that these niggas tryna bang like Chiddy
I am such a catch nigga, throw on ya mitty

Uh, who wanna play with Nicki?
Got the power, I could tell my niggas spray like 50
Distribute about a million dollars, word to brickies
Tell 'em to keep fifty, my cut nine-fifty, b**chy

Mm, give me my tens
Give me, give me my tens
Give me my tens
Then take away two, I ate, I win
Mm, give me my tens
Give me, give me my tens
Give me my tens
Then take away two, I ate it up again
