Once upon a time there was a rapper (singer, whatever you wanna call her) named Nicki Minaj. She released an album and like most artists, if you buy the album at a certain store, they put bonus tracks on there. Why? I really have no clue, I'll have to get back to you on that one. Anyway, there was also a singer named Taylor Swift. One more Taylor was doing a morning radio show to promote her new album and she let it slip that she could rap Nicki's song "Super Bass," which was a bonus track. So the radio host made her do part of it. She was pretty much flawless.
You see, "Super Bass" was never really meant to be released as a single because it wasn't on every album. But once Taylor did it, it kinda started to blow up. Then Selena Gomez posted a video of her rapping it last Christmas and the song got even bigger. By this time, I had learned all the words of the song. It wasn't until recently that the song hit the radio and everyone went nuts over it.
So when me and my friends go to California and we like to have fun. So one night we're in the hotel lobby and my friends knew how much I loved that song, so my "little sister" Rachel started playing the song on her phone. Then Kinz busted out her phone and started recording me and I did my own little (probably horrible) version of "Super Bass" right there in the hotel lobby. It was quite comical and thankfully Kinz, being the good friend that she is, didn't post it anywhere because I'm sure it's not pretty.
Finally, my story ends here. Taylor is having a series of concerts in LA for her Speak Now World Tour. And while I'm not sure if Taylor covers the song at every show, I know she did last night. And Miss Nicki Minaj happened planned to be there, so they did the song together. Seriosuly every time I watch it, I get this big cheesy grin on my face. I usually don't call people my "idol" because I think it's cheesy and I don't like putting people on pedestals (okay for other people, but not my thing), but Taylor and Nicki are pretty darn close.
Anyway, here's the video, please try to ignore the screaming...
