OPI – Nicki Minaj Collection (swatches & review)
Definitely one of the most highly anticipated collaborations in the vast world of nail lacquer, can be none other than that between OPI and Onika Tanya Maraj, or Trinidadian-born Nicki Minaj, as we know her! Set to launch this January 2012, the world’s reigning hip-hop princess has teamed up with mega brand OPI to create the ‘Nicki Minaj Collection’, a selection of five over-the-top glamourous shades complete with a shimmering shatter, all named after several of her hit tunes. The following swatches are all with Deborah Lippmann’s 2-Second Nail Primer, OPI’s Natural Nail Base Coat and OPI’s Start to Finish Base & Top Coat.
*On a side note, I was recently involved in – and lost – a really malicious “pillow plumping” incident, which should explain my really short pinkie nail!
Nicki Minaj sporting her very own ‘Did It On ‘Em’ look…even with everything else she’s got going on, you still focus only on her nails!
‘Super Bass Shatter’ is a blue based purple-magenta effects polish, made so much more unique by its scintillating shimmery formula. Depending on the look you wish to create, I found that its application was very easy to work with, with a thinner layer resulting in a finer pattern of cracks, while a thicker layer yields less variation, leaving behind more of “fault line” effect. Remember that your base colour needs to be rather dry before applying the shatter on top, and you should definitely add a layer of top coat to not only seal in the look, but to really bring out the delicate shimmer of ‘Super Bass’.
‘Pink Friday’ is what all little girls and princesses are made of! An opaque bubblegum pink hue, it seems to have a slight muted quality to it that lends it a fresh new kick and keeps it from looking too grade school. The formula, while a touch on the thicker side, was easy to apply and left no streaks behind…surprising for a pastel shade. You can definitely get away with two coats, however I applied three here for swatching purposes, and even without a top coat added, the glossy shine left behind was superb.
Sunlight gives this shade more of a creamy “eraser pink” tone, looking deceptively sweet & innocent…but we know better!
Indirect light cools ‘Pink Friday’ down and brings out its dustier candy-pink qualities.
Shaded light appears to bring out a hint of peach found in its base, and spotlights that über-gloss….no top coat here, my beauties!
A final view taken with flash adds a sugary touch to this shade…cupcakes, anyone?!
Seen in sunlight, the base colour compliments ‘Super Bass’ without competing for attention, and sets your focus on its subtle shimmer.
Indirect light casts a deeper, more adult look to this girly combo.
Shaded light appears to almost fuse the two shades together, making ‘Super Bass’ less the focus, but rather a willing partner.
A final view taken with flash draws your attention to the subtle shimmer of the shatter…so pretty!
‘Did It On ‘Em’ is the standout shade of this collection, mainly due to it’s uniquely original colour, yet totally in context with this artist’s vivid expression of style. A funky chartreuse hue, with a slightly dusty overcast tone to it, the formula was exceptionally easy to apply, flowing freely across the nails with an excellent self-levelling finish and ultra glossy shine at the end. Two coats are all that are needed to reach full opacity, and I was surprised by how much it actually appealed to me…who knew?!
While sunlight may add a retina-searing quality to this shade, it also serves to bring out the yellow in its base, imparting a generous warmth.
Indirect light lends ‘Did It On ‘Em’ a true lime semblance, looking all tart & juicy!
Shaded light once more highlights the yellower side of this shade, while adding an interesting depth of colour.
A final view taken with flash gives you an idea of how vivid, yet totally creamy, this shade truly is.
Sunlight is the best medium to enjoy this opposing yet completely complimentary duo, while also highlighting ‘Super Bass’ red-violet sparkle.
Indirect light not only throws a misty filter over this look, but darkens the shatter to a more raisin-like hue.
Shaded light, while deepening the overall tone of both lacquers, also helps ‘Super Bass’ really stand out.
A final view taken with flash lightens the base shade, and brings out every glimmering feature of the shatter effect.
‘Fly’ is PERFECTION!! An electric azure shade of blue, it bears an incredibly smooth formula of medium opacity, that not only levels itself, but leaves behind an ultra glassy finish. An interesting paradox is that while at first glance this colour may appear as too bright, once applied, you realize that there seems to be a slightly muted cast to it, making it so appealing. With two coats, complete opacity is reached, giving excellent coverage and I found that the dry time was definitely on the quick side. Bonus: no staining left behind at all.
Sunlight helps to bring out a slight turquoise nature to this shade, drawing forth any green tint in its base.
While indirect light takes ‘Fly’ to a more cerulean shade of blue, it also appears to lend it a slivery glow as well.
Shaded light not only darkens this hue, but really serves to direct your focus on its rich and creamy depth.
A final view taken with flash lightens ‘Fly’ to a more sky blue tone…a mesmerizing hue to be sure and one purported to bring good luck!
This combination is FIERCE! Something about the blue base really helps ‘Super Bass’ stand tall and spotlights its regal purple hue.
Indirect light deepens the overall look, and makes the shatter appear definitely more prominent.
While shaded light casts an overall darker look to this duo, interestingly enough it’s the base polish that seems to stand out.
A final view taken with flash and…ahhhh….is this look not just totally electric?! I love this!
‘Save Me’ is one of the most totally unique 3D lacquers I’ve seen! A clear suspension-thick base, loaded with very fine silver micro glitter and holographic bar glitter pieces, it’s rather a chameleon-like shade; with one coat, you achieve a subtle and almost ladylike glow (a look I really loved, by the way). At two coats, while certainly denser in appearance, the bling factor was still behaving itself – but at three coats (which I applied here), it almost defies description! As the bar glitter can have a tendency to want to wander, I would advise you to wait at least a couple of minutes between coats to avoid any clumping and the straying of any pieces that may be along the nail edge, easily nudged back in line to avoid overhang. Bonus: surprisingly easy removal…a plus!
Sunlight does amazing things to the bar glitter, calling forth every prismatic shade these holographic pieces have to offer.
Indirect light now brings the focus onto the multitude of micro glitter swirling throughout the base, casting a more wintry appearance.
Shaded light appears to draw forth the bluer side of the bar glitter, and makes ‘Save Me’ look all the world like a party explosion!
A final view taken with flash, and the diamond-like effect of this lacquer is unmistakeable…and just as luxurious!
You’d think that adding a layer of ‘Super Bass’ over ‘Save Me’ might be overkill, but sunlight shows how well the two work together.
Indirect light obviously tamps down the brilliance factor of this combo, giving just sneak peeks of what’s going on beneath the shatter.
In shaded light, ‘Super Bass’ deepens in tone and its shimmer melts into the background, while ‘Save Me’s’ bar glitter takes the stage.
A final view taken with flash gives ‘Super Bass’ an edgy feminine vibe and really brings out its shimmer filled intensity.
‘Metallic 4 Life’ surprised me; what appears to be an midnight dark lacquer in the bottle, is actually a rather sheer charcoal base, filled to capacity with micro and hexagonal mid-sized silver glitter particles. The formula itself appeared to be of a more medium-viscosity than ‘Save Me’, and while two coats will give pretty good coverage, I actually preferred this shade at three coats (which I applied here), for a truly dense look. I recommend at least a couple of minute’s wait time between coats to produce a more evenly spaced look of the glitter, and it should be noted that removal needs a touch more elbow grease as well…but so worth it!
Sunlight gives this shade a cosmically-charged look, with the silver looking like an entire galaxy of stars across your nails.
I love how indirect lights throws a more ombré effect over this shade, shrouding the tips of the nails in dark mystery.
Shaded light serves to emphasize ‘Metallic 4 Life’s’ varying shapes of glitter, with the larger hexagonal pieces really standing out.
A final view taken with flash, and it’s like diamond-studded carbon has been painted across the nails…gothic luxury!
When seen in sunlight, I love how ‘Metallic 4 Life’s’ steely gleam peeks shyly through the shatter on top.
Indirect light combines the two shades in such a way, that it becomes slightly difficult to tell where one begins and the other ends.
Shaded light serves to pick out the many silvery flecks of the base shade, while lending ‘Super Bass’ a deep aubergine hue.
A final view taken with flash and the true purple of ‘Super Bass’ reigns supreme, over the pewter like gleam of the base hue.
Final thoughts: I personally love how this collection completely captures the eclectic, and so incredibly talented persona that is one Nicki Minaj! Each lacquer offers yet another glimpse into the young diva’s life, from “in-your-face” girliness (‘Pink Friday’), to seductive vamp (‘Metallic 4 Life’), with oodles of fun thrown over that in between…while the inclusion of the ‘Super Bass’ shatter gives an individualized look to every mani (or pedi!) one can create. As this will be a limited edition collection, and one I’m sure to go down as yet another of Nicki’s “hits” (*obvious cheesy musical reference*!!), set your sights for the new year release!

Metallic 4 life and Save me are my fave! Great swatch and product review!!!
Thanks so much….glad you enjoyed it!
your swatches are the best! they truly show the colors accurately and beautifully. i picked up SB & M4L cause they seemed the most interesting, but after seeing this I realize I also need the rest of them
thanks for your hard work!
Thank you so much for your kind words and I’m really happy that you enjoy my swatches! It’s always so nice being appreciated — enjoy your new “toys” and do let me know if you end up with the rest!
kool
idk it just looks kool but its the same coulur like 3 times
Well, the shatter on top is the same, so perhaps that’s what’s giving you this impression? Either way, the effect is pretty cool!
very nice i just got the super bass from http://www.labeautyzone.com
Glad you like them…enjoy playing with Super Bass! Thanks for the link to this resource!
this is already out in my country! and fly is awesome! and so is save me with the bar glitter!
That’s fabulous but, which country are you in? LOL!! I’m really glad you’re liking those lacquers – enjoy!!
Erm.. not loving these colours as much. Rather disappointed in fact, probably I had much higher expectations for this collection as opi did a great job with the katy perry collection! Oh well, shall wait for the holland collection and also china glaze magnetic collection. *rubs hands in glee* ;D
You’re one up on me; I hadn’t even heard about any magnetic collection from China Glaze! I have such well informed readers…love it!
As to the Holland collection, I will be showing my swatches soon (been keeping them under wraps until the holiday season had come & gone!), but I have every confidence that you’ll fall in love with at least half the shades (I’m personally torn over all 12!)!!
Great swatch pics!!! Thanks for posting
Thank you, Rachel! Makes me glad to know you liked them!
I’ve been waiting for someone to swatch this collection! I’m so glad I found your swatch from Imperfectly Painted. Awesome colors. I can’t wait for them to come out.
Glad you liked them, Rosa! People have been swaying both ways with this collection, but love ‘em or hate ‘em, you definitely can’t ignore them, lol!
Nice swatches…I am quite anxious for these to be released! Although I’ll probably only buy three out of the six…Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks, Kelli! It’s a collection you can’t ignore…much like Nicki! Hope you get the ones you’ve got your eye on
WOW. wow wow wow wow I need all of these nail polishes in my life right now. I love Nicki, I can basically rap all of her songs, and I have been DYING OF ANTICIPATION to see swatches since I heard her mention OPI in “Make Me Proud”
You did not disappoint. This is a great detailed review and I am basically even more jealous that you have these nail polishes and I don’t. You have no idea, I want to hunt down OPI HQ and beg for samples of these. To review, to drool over, i don’t even care. I NEED ALL OF THESE.
There is not a single color I don’t like, and that is the prettiest shatter color EVER.
My turn to say “WOW”…..your enthusiasm is simply awesome! I’m really glad that you enjoyed the swatches and you being such a fan, will make it even more enjoyable for when you do finally wear them! I know that the January launch date may seem far away, but at least once the holiday rush is over, you’ll have something else to look forward to!
haha yeah I do come off as obsessed but….I fall into addictions hard and fast, I suppose. I know I know, January isn’t too far off. We’re getting there but I’ll probably end up waiting even longer – can’t exactly afford OPI collections and LSAT classes at the same time
Then it’s actually a blessing for you that this collection won’t be coming out before January: this way, you can focus on exams and such without those pretty baubles tempting you to play, plus it gives you some time to save up (or perhaps add to a gift list?)
!!
Good call with “eraser pink”! I’m loving the chartreuse trend, I’ve seen it a lot in furniture catalogs lol… I think it will be a huge color this spring in nails. I have OCC Wasabi which looks similar to Did It On ‘Em and LOVE it!
Hahaha! Glad you liked that description – brought me right back to my youth and my love of those chubby little pink erasers! As to chartreuse being a forerunner this spring, something tells me you may just be right; it has a “fresh” vibe to it, and while not for everyone, you can’t deny that it packs a punch!
I’m am seriously concerned that my love of nail polish is waning…the only shade here that at all catches my eye is Pink Friday…the rest, sadly, leave me cold. What’s going on with me!? Diagnosis, please!
Toya, Baby girl…there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with you! Au contraire; you are developing a very finely honed sense of colour and your own personal style, and therefore you are naturally refining what it is you want, and don’t want. It’s also possible that these shades don’t necessarily appeal to you and maybe never have, or that you could already own something somewhat similar. In any case, enjoy the pretty pictures (lol!) and there always the next collection….you will NOT be saying the same about the Holland Collection, I can guarantee it (trust me: all 12 bottles are sitting in front me right now as I write this!) Hugs!
I think you’re right on that one, I’ve seen pics of the Holland collex and it looks AMAZING! Can’t wait for the post
And thank you for putting my fears to rest
Awwww, you didn’t need me to allay any fears; you pretty much had it all figured out on your own! And yes, it’s an awesome collection (I tweeted a couple of photos of it that you can check out!) xox
Omg all these are GORGEOUS!! Thank you for the swatches, though I think I need to get them all now… Is Did It On ‘Em a dupe for Who The Shrek Are You? They look kinda similar, like lime green/yellowish.
You’re very welcome, Magdalene – they are something, aren’t they?! ‘Didi It On ‘Em’ is VERY close to ‘Who The Shrek Are You’, with the difference that it’s a touch less green and leans a bit more towards the yellow. I haven’t swatched the two to compare the formula, but colour-wise, that’s what I see. Hope this helps!
While I feel that this collection feels repetitive (OPI Shrek, anyone?), I am happily surprised how beautifully Pink Friday and Fly swatched! Those are two really nice spring/summer staple colors. I’m putting all my eggs in the OPI Holland basket for now…
Have a great weekend, Eugenia! And as always, thanks for the swatches
You’re more than welcome, Amanda and it pleases me that you saw the summer potential of these shades! I can certainly understand why you wish to wait for the Holland collection…as I mentioned in other comments here, that collection is set to blow everyone away! I can’t even decide which to swatch first…so I just stare at them for now, lol! Must be love….
OH MY GOSH Big Sis, I want it ALL. Every last one. They are all so gorgeous! Beautiful pics!
Hahaha….thanks, l’il Sis – you know how much I value your opinion! (I’m going to have to start hiding things from you, I see…lol!! Kidding – always glad to share!) Glad the shorn pinkie nail didn’t make you run screaming into the nearest woods!
I like the glitter ones the best! Although the crackle topping looks interesting, I think I will stay boring and stick to simple nail polish looks.
Olivia…you could never be boring! The glitter ones are rather eye-catching, I agree! Glad you approve, my friend!
HA! For once your magic doesn’t work totally! Or maybe I’m getting immune (I hope not!!) All this to say that your swatches didn’t change my opinion for this collection. I was undecided leaning towards yes for the shatter, and I think I’ll cave in, but the rest doesn’t impress me enough to shed my unexistant pennies: I’m very, very, very difficult to convince for creams, and definitely not likely to fall for bright/neon colours. As for the two glitters, I’m not keen on bar glitters and the dark grey one reminds me of Haunting and Tinsel Town (you just said you didn’t have Haunting, but maybe you could compare Tinsel Town with Metallic 4 Life if you find the time?). I’m not saying they’re not pretty, they’re just not my kind of colours… Pffiu, my banker will be happy with me on that one! Thanks for the swatches
Uh-oh…..my wand must be broken again, lol!! I know what you mean about being a lot more selective in which shades you wish to splurge on – makes sense in this economic environment, my friend. It’s ok that these don’t all grab you, as it will help you save up for the Holland Collection (that’s one collection that you won’t easily be able to resist *rubbing hands while sporting an evil grin*…lol). Seriously though, I am glad for your bank balance & can’t wait to see what you create with ‘Super Bass’!
Oh Eugenia I have been waiting all day for the chance to mosey on over to your blog to check out these swatches!! ^_^
‘Did It On ‘Em’ is everything I wanted it to be and more. Chartreuse is one of my favorite colors and I’m so glad that I’ll soon be able to sport it on my nails!!
And ‘Fly’ is just as amazing. I found myself sighing longingly while looking at your swatches of the color. Imagining it on my fingers, haha! I think this one definitely looks the best with the crackle shimmer on top. ♥
I’m happy that ‘Save Me’ is such a beautiful bar glitter. I’m a new fan of this type of glitter and the color combination of the silver mixed with the almost pastel looking holo bar glitter pieces is fabulous!
‘Metallic 4 Life’ through me for a loop, I was not expecting the in-your-face huge silver flecks of glitter. I LOVE IT! I don’t have anything like this in my collection, which means that this NEEDS to be in my collection.
Wow, this comment got looooong. :p I’m seriously head over heals in love with your swatches of this collection and I can’t wait until I have all of these colors in my hot little hands. ^_^
Rie, I have no doubt that when you get your “hot little hands” (lol!) on this collection, that your swatches & photos will put mine to shame
I love how you show glitters, and I can totally see all these beauties on you. ‘Metallic 4 Life’ surprised me as well; I didn’t expect it to actually be sheer at the start, and that the larger glitter pieces would come to the surface so beautifully — and I’m not even a huge glitter fan! (love how they look, hate the removal ;( ) Thanks for the luv, my friend!!
Holy hell! I think these are all great! Love “Fly” and “Save Me” the most but because this is a ‘small’ collection (and I find all the others fascinating) I will need to purchase ALL! XOXOXO
Somehow, I knew you would like these shades! I said to myself that if anyone can find amazing combos for ‘Save Me’, it would be none other than you..seriously!! I can’t wait to see these on you, girlfriend! Hugs!
Whoa! I love Pink Friday + Did It On ‘Em’! Such beautiful vibrant cream colors! I love the glitters too…as always. Don’t think Fly would look good on me since my skin tone on my hands are kinda medium/olive…wish it was, well, less blue. Kinda surprising since blue is my fav color. Hehe.
Eileen, I have olive toned skin as well (more like a light-medium shade), and if you liked it on me, then perhaps you’ll like it on you!
In any case, if you get a chance to swatch it, you’ll be better able to tell then. And the creme shades…yowza! Glad you liked them!
I was so sure I’d love Metallic 4 Life — and it looks great — but I’m surprised by how sweet Pink Friday looks! And I am NOT a pink nails person at all. (Don’t let the wallpaper of my blog fool you.) I’m passing on this collection as well but the colours aren’t as unwearable as I thought they might be! And they really do reflect a lot of the colours from Nicki’s videos/themes!
You’re so right about how well these shades mesh with the artist! I can well understand you wanting to pass on this collection (it’s not like YOU’RE lacking in polishes, right?!!)…but I’d like to see if your resolve stays as strong once you see the Holland Collection, lol! Seriously Liz….that one is going to surprise you! I’ve been staring at them, and STILL can’t decide which is my favourite! PS: ‘Pink Friday’ really is sweet…you’re right again!
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the Holland will get me! After seeing way too much snow, I’ll be grabbing at anything that looks bright and pretty! Hopefully I’ll be good when the time comes.
Oh, you’ll be good…of that, I have no doubt! The Holland Collection is many things, but with the exception of 1 or 2 shades, it’s not really a “bright” collection, per se; some of the shades have a dusty quality, but with a hidden shimmer effect, others are deep and vampy, and all are gorgeous! I can’t wait for you to see it and hear your thoughts on it!
I was almost ready to say that I’m not planning on getting anything from this collection and then I saw Metallic 4 Life and it was lovvvveeee. Must have for me. It reminds me of one of Deborah Lippmann’s holiday glitters, only better because of the colored base and less than half the price! Not knocking Lippmann at all, she does great polishes and she’s definitely responsible for the craze of big glitter in jelly bases, but in this case OPI outdid her. The rest are all beautiful, but. The shatter is one of the best I’ve seen, but I have like 4 or 5 shatters at this point and I never wear them, so it doesn’t make sense for me to get another. I’m not huge on bar glitter and the color combo on Save Me doesn’t thrill me. Did It On ‘Em (these names, my god! I feel like an old lady yelling for those no-good kids to get off her lawn, except that I’m 22!) reminds me of Who the Shrek Are You?, and one such color is adequate for me. Fly is my favorite of the cremes but it reminds me of some Barielles and China Glazes I have. Surprisingly the other one I’m tempted by is Pink Friday as I have just declared to myself that I need to find a good pastel pink (color AND formula–I’m looking at YOU, Revlon Pink Chiffon, with your terrible disaster of a formula). I’m not sure it is *quite* pastel enough for me, though–I am a pastel lover and I like them pretty stark.
But yes. I am making a space for Metallic 4 Life in my OPI drawer (along with AT LEAST half of the Holland collection which I am soooooooo excited for). Also, your mini pinkie finger is really cute, haha! I have bizarrely strong pinkie nails that almost never break or peel or anything (knock on wood, etc etc) but my index nails make up for it by being weak and persnickety, no malicious pillow plumping required!
*stopping to catch my breath from the laughter*…Julia, you do have a way with words, and I love it! You’re so right about Deborah Lippmann being the “hand” behind the mega glitter fad, and yes…she does make a mean formula, but we’re not always keen on splurging for a polish that, let’s face it, we won’t exactly be running out of soon enough! ‘Did It On ‘Em’ is VERY close to ‘Who The Shrek Are You’ (good eye!) and while I don’t own any Barielles, I trust your judgement on that one too, although I must state that ‘Fly’ is unique in my stash. ‘Metallic 4 Life’ is probably the most sophisticated shade of the bunch…even with the loads of glitter, and I’m pretty drawn to it myself. “Stark pastels”, huh? I see that you’re already planning for the seasons ahead…good for you! As to the Holland Collection, I haven’t begun my swatches yet (gulp) but I’ve been looking at the bottles and let me say here & now that it is one AWESOME collection. There’s not one in the 12 that I don’t love! Thanks for the pinkie love, lol!! xox
Man, that made me curious about the Holland Collection.
I’m gonna google it LOL
I wish I was ready to post my swatches, but the truth is that I still have plenty of work to do on this collection! You can check out some twitter pics I uploaded as well…enjoy!
Oh yes, my hunch is true, I knew I’m gonna love “Save Me” from the sneak preview! Bar glitter seems going to be the new trend.
The Super Bass Shatter surprised me, I didn’t think that it would be a shimmer
I got a dilemma for ‘Metallic 4 Life’, I got Nubar Knight’s Armor and CG Haunting, they are not the same but definitely cousins, I don’t know if I should take it.
Nice swatch BTW
Thanks so much! I knew that ‘Super Bass’ would be a shimmer – I just didn’t expect it to be so complex, which is a nice touch I must say! As I don’t have either of the two you mentioned (the Nubar or China Glaze’s Haunting), I couldn’t really say how close they were, but if you think they’ll be too alike, by all means explore the other beauties of this little collection!
“With these swatches, I thee wed.” I’m smitten and haven’t even touched a vile of this beautiful collection. ‘Super Bass’ over ‘Did It On Em’ reminded me of the days I devoured ‘Mystery Mix’ Now-N-Later candy like they were Flinstone chewables! I love each and every flavor of this line! Even if mini multi-pack, I will definitely splurge when they hit my local shelves. You’re review made me hungry for a helping of Minaj. No homo.
Hahahaha! And you never even sent me any flowers first, lol!! Where’s the pre-nup, I ask you?! This collection is adorable…makes me happy that you enjoyed the view!!
I need Pink Friday and Fly in my life ASAP!!! Love them. Thanks for sharing ;0)
Anytime, hon….glad you approved! That ‘Fly’ IS totally fly…..love, love, love it!
Thank you for your beautiful swatches. I am so going to buy all of them but “did it on em”. It looks a lot like something from the shrek collection. I am so excited about this collection!! When exactly is the release date for the United States? Oh sorry about your pinky your nails still look good!
Thanks, Lissette! That was my first thought too; that ‘Did It On ‘Em’ looked suspiciously like ‘Who The Shrek Are You?’, but while they are very, very close, the Minaj shade is lighter, dustier, and a tad more yellow leaning. I’m not 100% sure of the exact release date, but I was told early January 2012. Thanks for not letting my decapitated pinkie scare you off, lol!
Fantastic swatches! I was totally not interested in this collection based on OPI’s promo pics (and I still don’t get the appeal of bar glitter!) but I am totally smitten by Pink Friday, Fly and Metallic For Life!
Thanks for the review!
You’re so welcome, Rach! Glad you liked them and for the record, I couldn’t stop staring at ‘Fly’ when I had it on!!
