Safaree Samuels dissed his former lover Nicki Minaj in a radio interview with Big Boy on Big Boy’s Neighborhood. When asked what he thought about Nicki’s current music, the mediocre rapper struggled to say something nice. “It don’t… it’s not me. It’s just whatever,” he said.
Safaree further stated that Nicki’s new music is not something he would listen to. “I’m just being honest. I’m not being a hater or nothing like that,” he said.
Safaree praised one-hit rapper Cardi B, and he suggested people don’t like Nicki because of her personality.
“With Cardi, it’s like people love her so much as a person, even if her music wasn’t as good as it is, people would still been like, ‘bravo you did it’.”
He added: “In this day and age, your personality is 80 percent of you being an artist.”
Cardi B and her baby bump performed onstage with Ozuna at the 2018 Billboard Latin Music Awards at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on Thursday.

??? him being a hater.
I do agree Nicki personality ain’t for everyone, but I love it ?? If she humbles herself just a little bit, she would definitely get more fans.
He’s just lame to me. But he’s no different than amber rose or any other ex that just rides the wave to make a name for themselves. Just wish he wasn’t so tacky to keep talking about her 4 years later. Ppl seem to like it though so whatever ?????
I would have to agree with that. Nicki wearing colorful hair, being animated and cartoon-ish in her videos seems to be very different than the nasty reputation she has earned. I think her not wanting to be looked at as another female rapper and pushing to be considered with the best male rappers is where she got lost. Cardi is just likeable and a lot of people want her to win.
he is telling the truth… Nicki can come across as having a stank attitude….in that interview she gave complaining about Cardi not respecting her…she sounded exactly like Lil Kim when Kim was complaining about Nicki not paying homage
Meanwhile…Pootie tang has more fans then him!! Basically his opinion is a non factor!! And u can find a chick like Cardi B in your Lokal hood!! She’s hyped up for reasons that won’t keep her around like Nicki!! Her music sucks Its you-tubed gas station mix tape on sale for $3 approved where it should’ve stayed…and Nicki ain’t that great either but she’s better!!
Two of 2017/2018’s biggest underdogs in back to back posts. First Tiff. Now another Belcalis post.
I love it.
A page straight out of the Bitter Ex handbook. Just say something nice and move on with your life. Her music wasn’t “whatever” all those years it was supporting his lifestyle.
who cares .. he’s a clown.
I like dude… Was he suppose to fold and run into Oblivion because he no longer with ole girl? I think NOT. HE HELPED CATAPULT HER TO FAME AND NOW SHE GIVES HIM HER ARSE TO KISS…Get it Safari… You are single with no kids and easy on the eyes… Do your thing!
First time I heard him sound bitter…I agree with some of his words tho. Cardi does have a better personality with her fans then Nicki does but thats just because Cardi has always been personable and social. Thats just a trait of Cardi’s generation…all of them wanna tell everything be nice and when they dont get their way they go off on IG. But again Cardi has the ear of the yt people and a label backing her so of course Nicki is gonna be the villian… Nicki is her own boss in her own right and don’t need strings from the label to move… IDK why Nicki even came back If I were her I would have stayed my azz in Bora Bora a lil longer…
Safaree is a STAR.
#TEAMSAFAREE
A scorn nigga….
Giving you the side-eye. Didn’t you write most of her music?
Chile Agreed …. Love Cardi .. Free spirit now that other one …. ?
I miss the 90s rap!!
He is 100 percent right!!!! Nicki just seem like such a bicth!!! And you know they said if mor than one person says it it has to hold water???????????????
Nicki’s attitude stinks and no one likes her, the music is mediocre and so is Cardi’s music but you have to love girl Cardi, she’s hilarious and humble. Nicki used to be quirky and hyper and that was likeable, The barbi bitch is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo played out.
Safaree is right about the personality thing. Nicki has a bad attitude. He is not being a hater, they asked him a question during an interview.
Nicki was quirky and hyper and it was all an act, or maybe the Coco.
Chile the Nicki stans in here are so mad that none of them can’t tell the difference between THEN and THAN. hahahahaha….Y’all really need to give up people worshiping. SMH. The man is doing and interview and was asked questions and he answered them. The End.
Nicki should’ve never let Safaree go.
So who disagrees? Let’s argue! LOL Nicki’s attitude is TRASH!
Sarafee stood by Nicki’s side for 10 years being her punching bag and bag boy. He would still be doing the same chit if Nicki didnt drop him. HE just tried to shoot his shot at her a couple months ago. Bitter yes, Hater no. She’s been a bitch and you still were rocking with her now you aint benefiting off her anymore now shes just whatever. Be true Safaree. Redirect Nicki questions. Its been years since yall been together yet you cant do an interview without someone mentioning her name. When they ask Chris about Rhianna or Karate he says I wish her the best next question. You’re more than that. Dont let that be the only thing you represent. You have way too much going on. He did a whole interview but all people are posting is his comment about Nicki. SMH Nicki big headed ass is and always will be a bitch. Now what he said about Cardi is 100. Cardi has personality and she is humble and likable. We saw her on LHHNY and she stole the whole entire show both seasons. That girl is a star. On top of everything she’s funnier than Tiffany Haddish. Yea i said it.
He RIGHT tho. Straight up. Cardi is real and humble.
LMAO, HAHAHA.
You forgot to mention his best part.???
Nicki came into the game with the Young Money machine behind her. Back then Wayne, Baby and them had major influence. Then throw Drake in the mix. It’s like being the only girl in the family with big brothers so nobody messes with you. Cardi didn’t have that. The fans made Cardi famous. Do you know how hard that is in the music industry where it’s full of cliques. Nicki is messy and mean. Cardi is the People’s Choice and it’s eating Nicki up because she wasn’t able to bully and blackball Cardi like she did to all the other female rappers who were trying to make a name for themselves in the game. Now Nicki out here trying to find her way without a powerful team behind her. Karma.
I love Nikki.
Why does he always have NIcki name in his mouth… she is the reason why he is on love and hip hop on television with all those NIcki impersonators. I would not know this guy without NIcki…. NIcki came from YouTube these clowns on a major cable tv network and they acting like they are brand new using everything that everyone did before. Ohhh like it’s an accident and idiots can’t see the writing on the wall… vh1 exalting the lowest of the low… boring will do and say anything for attention total bottoms. What won’t they do.. women with no dignity…. Looking all the same on a tv show that drags them because they don’t carry themselves right but they will do anything for those $$.
People hate on everything NIcki do but copy her… how many “grown “ chicks walking around trying to be Barbies because of NIcki. Walking around with pink hair and hair down to their ankles. It’s so lame when people hate on people who influence or have had tremendous impact.
Sandra Rose stop sucking Nikki butt you know Cardi B is not a one hit wonder you wish she was you always dissing her Cardi B did her thing and you need to stop
I like how you put this!!
He hates her CURRENT music.
Cardi is the People’s Choice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Very true…
LETS all Be honest ummm the industry’s is very flip flop now and microwave fast is in ain’t nothing lasting long these days period
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Exactly cause he wasn’t saying when he was her ‘HYPE MAN’ & TOTING HER MONEY BAGS….He’ll be ok as soon as HE HAS A #HIT
I don’t think anybody can argue with you on this one.
I like them both but lets call a spade a spade. Nicki thinks her bitchy attitude equates to being a BOSS. She fails to realize how its perceived. Cardi may not be on Nicki’s BOSS level but what Cardi has is time and personality and those things will continue to take her places.
Normally i wouldnt comment of post about reality show personalities. But… Said the bitter man who was with Nicki for like a decade plus. I blame America for keeping these skin tags relevant! If there were no reality shows or social media pages where would the hype man be? Clearly his opinion is biased because their personal history. So it shouldn’t matter what he thinks of her music. As far as the women, both offer different flavors of sound and they’re the only two really representing “female” rap mainstream. It’s something to be proud of.
So, he’s saying nicki has a bad personality, basically.
Says the guy who made a song with that white chick from ridiculousness & mariah lynn…..Im glad he realize they like Cardi not for her music…
Thank u, Nicki worke hard to get where she is..10plus yrs
I mean she is a boss
No Cardi is the strippers & ratchets choice, they winning now. Strippers & bartenders. Cardi will fade
Not one person in these comments has said that Nicki didnt work hard. We all know how hard Nicki has worked these last 10 years and nobody can take that away from her. We are talking about her attitude not her work ethic.
Nicki doesn’t need strings from the label to move? Isn’t she still signed to young money that’s signed to something else that’s signed to a third party?
Twerkin
Awww! Litty bitty bitter boo!
Nicki worked hard before social media! If there was no IG there would be no Cardi point blank…this was nicki life & cardi is a stripper that decided to try rapping. Dont discredit Nicki hard work…like her or not.
I never said she wasn’t.
I like Safaree. I like Nicki. I like Cardi B. If he doesn’t like Nicki’s music he has the right to say so. He didn’t trash her and he got off of the subject real quick and moved the conversation to Cardi B. I don’t understand why people keep asking him about Nicki though… He needs to find a nice way to shut it down…
Dont discredit Nicki hard work…like her or not.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I agree…
Yes, she is signed with young money but she makes her own moves just like Drake does… Young Money is a hand’s off type label when it comes to artists…its the artist’s job to build their brand at Young Money (look at Lil Twist)…Best believe Atlantic is down Cardi’s throat and been so since day one hence the multiple appearances and pregnancy denials until Atlantic got a return on their investment…
All lies. I’m not a stripper and most would think I’m uppity but I’m not at all and I I LOVE Cardi B. Invasion Of Privacy surprised me by how great it is. She delivered a solid debut album. I understood all her lyrics and women can relate to her songs whether you’re from the hood, ratchet or not.
I can’t stand salty exes. He could’ve just said no comment ?
They are always being so divisive and unnecessary … They are just going to make NIcki have a problem with some damn body because they stay bothering her trying to diss her , her work because she don’t kiss their butts… two black women cant exist at the same time??? Why not. why are they comparing NIcki who can rap to somebody who sounds like English is her 4th language and doesn’t rap on beat. Great she has some songs that have good beats?? And fans but why compare them.
Lmaoooo not bartenders ???
His eggplant is purty BUT it’s too much for my taste.
I generally like her music, but that attitude has to go!
Cardi’s belly is cute. That’s all I got.
Exactly! Cardi is the new darling right now..in two more mango seasons, it will be someone else
Lawwd he’s bitter ?. Sh*t didn’t take off for him after Nikki, so now he’s big mad.
Ok got it
I liked but didn’t love Barbie Tingz. Chun Li was just blah. I really expected her to come harder especially because of how folks have been saying how she’s fallen off.
First off I love Safaree. The other day he posted my child on his instagram page. so therefore. He can do no wrong lol!!
How bout that new J.Cole album tho? I’ve been bumping it everyday since it dropped….
Cardi just lovable/likeable period. Her gutter and ratchet behavior and all. Whether she here today and gone tonight; she geniunely seems grateful to be in the game. If only for a moment…
He’s right. Nicki’s attitude is stank.
English is her 4th language *dead*
Damn ?
Nothing but the truth!
Safairy talking all that crap but I bet if Nicki called his ass right now, he’ll break his neck trying to pick up the phone ?
Nicki’s new music:
Safaree- “It’s not me.”
Naturally, bc the lyrics aren’t his anymore.
I can appreciate how she up there performing, in all of her pregnant glory with zero f’s to give. That’s how you know she fought through some rough times and truly came out on top. Ppl love her bc she is genuine and you can’t fake that quality.
Why is he being interviewed? He went from a bag carrier to scripted reality star. It’s like the only way to make the blogs is when he’s talking about Nicki Minaj or comparing her to talentless wanna be rappers. I don’t even care for Nicki but I can tolerate her over Cardi B. Nicki is talented, she has her own flow, her flow is on point and she’s always switching it up. But her attitude is horrible from what I’ve seen and read.
Word
Cardi has the Latino behind her
Right and she’s such an bad influence on these teens .She hasn’t known Offset a year,now pregnant which tells you they had unprotected sex .But at least she has a great personality ?
Her attitude may need to change but Cardi needs MORALS.People escape the good not to be a
Apparently not numbers don’t lie.
None of us in here has meet Nicki ,therefore I’m not sure if she has a bad disposition or not.But I do know I like her music and she’s not loud and annoying and pregnant after been in the industry a short time .
Nicki is a bïtch and we all know it. Sure Cardi needs morals, she’s not rude though.
AGREED, her album was surprisingly really good!
Lol why he post yo child?
He’s right he said nothing wrong
well he said nothing wrong
She is horrible in person
Knocked Kneed you’re right! Her attitude sucks. I unfortunately was on the end of her nasty disposition once. Couldn’t stand the heifer after that.
I was just asking because I wasn’t sure that it was her choice to release dozens of substandard features instead of working on an album these last few years. Seems like something someone with limited freedom does to make money and try to stay on top while the label is the hold up.
Thank you!!!
Doubtful that he’s bitter…s*** ain’t taking off for her right now either. He’s just saying what many of us are thinking. ?????
Nicki threw him away like trash. But I will say he seems like a good spirited guy. Corny but good spirited
???!
He’s actually been nice for a long time lol. He went on the breakfast club once saying he just wants to be friends and he doesn’t understand why that can’t happen and they told him to probably just continue to give it more time and even denied ghostwriting although we all know he did it for her. He’s probably just over it now at this point
Whether she has another hit or not, she’s made her mark. Frankly she’s accomplished more t most ever will, and most definitely him. He’s bitter because he can’t seem to keep her name, out of his mouth. I don’t care what others are saying. You’re a man, stop talking about this damn woman. He sounds like a scorned b*tch.
absolutely!
Seems like he needed her to ghost write for him… Her lyrics still seem the same with or without him. She has a mean pen… Its just odd for a female now a days to be so vicious on the mic. The Barbie Tingz is some harsh lyrics she was just hitting punch line after punch line about copycat females… It was hilarious and so evil at the same time…. She was throwing jabs but she said she was going to keep on making hits and taking shots at her haters.
Hip Hop is extremely sexist because Nicki, Remi and Azelea and all come harder than 95% of the Guys…
Dude, release more ?pics and shut up. He’s starting to sound bitter.
? ? Petty comment of the day.
Atlantic records put Cardi where she is. She had a solid fan base but doing SNL, Ellen, Bruno mars placement, the radio station strong push has record label written all over it. Trust there is a machine behind her. Plus she’s signed to Migos management group and both parties are using each other to maintain relevance . Nicki had real fans in the beginning before she became mainstream just like Cardi. It’s a cycle and it goes around and around just faster now.
If a woman was doing this she would be ever bitter, lonely, miserable name in the book. It comes a time when you have to move forward. Nothing cute about talking about your ex 4 years later.
Yes, I am a 47 year old professional woman with kids and I have Cardi’s album on repeat! That album is FIRE!
Find the lie.
Safari sounds bitter…why even comment on Nicki doing interviews that should be about YOU & YOUR muzik????
He’s right, but still messy to speak against Nicki.
Nicki is what they used to back in the day call “stink”. She has a “stink” attitude and makes “stink face” as if she looks down on everyone. Its very off putting to people. The thing is it would be fine if she was at the level she didn’t need the street to still buy her records. She wants really bad to be above and beyond the hood, but still needs hood fans and hood sales. #catch22
Cardi is rising up, loving fame and wealth, but she claims and loves her street roots.
He need to go recover from that robbery and stfu.
Pure attitude.
I call Nicki a brat and a bully.
lol
Of course. I just think from now on his response should be ‘no comment’. Nicki clearly doesn’t gaf which is why she doesn’t talk about him at all however… do you think exes that still talk about you whether it’s good or bad still care?
Yes! As long as she keeps it “real” then all is ok no matter what she says or how she acts because she is “real” smh
i heard the album too, catchy songs but i doubt they stand the test of time..& needed way more work on her enunciation…song are about cheating men, getting money from men..not all women relate to that..alot of women dont want to be seen like that..it took a long time for women to be respected.
& dont forget dry humping on IG with him..but she looove the kids ?
He is absolutely right Nicki seems like a mean girl now. You can call Cardi a one hit but as ghetto as she be shes so likeable. Shes funny and down to earth. Nicki use to be like that but with all these failed relationships, declining music career, loss of her ghost writer, shes been on a down spiral
lol. This guy is officially a certified BITCH. And all these females in here taking up for his BITCH antics. Regardless to how he feels, I don’t expect real men to behave like this. No man I would EVER lay down with would ever act like this. This is ish females do. Why you getting in the middle of a “beef” between 2 females? And don’t say he didn’t because he did the moment he made those comments. He’s bitter as hell. Nicki who is Nicki has always been, stank attitude and all. She still raps the same way she did when he was jumping in and out of her ass, now all of a sudden you don’t like her music and she has a stank attitude. This ninja is a fraud and people hate Nicki so much that they’re Ray Charles to the BS. Not me.
I think it’s a thing where they were writing together. I’m not a huge Nicki fan, I stopped after she became mainstream and started talking in English accents but I do agree with what you’re saying. Punchlines are her thing and she has kept it going all these years
NICKI AND HER TEAM THOUGHT SHE WAS SOOOOO H0T THAT SHE COULD DO THIS DISAPPEARING ACT THEN REAPPEAR RIGHT, RIGHT WHEN CARDI’S ALBUM DROPS; LIKE WITHIN A DAY OR TWO TO HAVE ALL EYES ON HER, FAKE CRYING ABOUT ‘MOTOR SPORT’ TO GET PEOPLE HATING CARDI AND TO DISRUPT CARDI’S ALBUM SALES. HMM IT DIDN’T WORK AND THE MUSIC WASN’T FIRE. CARDI IS STILL ROLLING AND ENJOYING LIFE. I THINK SHE SHOULD HAVE KEPT THE FAKE TEARS AND CAME WITH A ‘I’M HAPPY AND HAPPY FOR EVERYONE’ TYPE OF ATTITUDE INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BE MESSY. A BIG BUTT AND A SMILE ONLY GOES SO FAR IF YOU HAVE A STANK ATTITUDE………..JENNY JONES!!!
Nothing worse than a bitter, bottom, beta SIMP. F Cardi B!!
It didnt work?? Chk the numbers…
Thank u! He will forever be nicki ex who use to twerk on stage for her boy bye
Rite nicki done been with other men & him other women y they still askin him questions about her, what he know now
Yes b4 the interview say no Nicki questions
He is known cuz of Nicki lol
Nicki wasnt trying to have ppl rule her like they do other artist she always spoke up for herself..unfortunately its called attitude
Rite he was jus singing” someone tell nicki i love her”
How u figure its not working out…she breaking records every day…the blogs jus posting cardi tho
Thank u! 10yrs plus is not for no reason
Plus its too soon to compare
Childddddddd no…he use to be on stage twerkin? ???
& Nicki didnt have IG to show her out there.
She had been rude tho u guys are judging her by recent posts
Lets c what cardi accomplishes in 10yrs
Man atlantic got Cardi on LOCK
I think she’s mean. Just my opinion.
I see chicks like cardi in the hood all day everyday keeping it “real” in front of the pjs smoking & drinking
If it wasnt for Nicki those streams wouldnt count & cardi wouldnt be where she is…i never seen Cardi thank the female mc’s that came b4 like Nicki has done..
Why does her tongue have to show in every picture. Looks even more ridiculous on a pregnant woman. Trash
Nicki continues to give us alter egos. After 10 years in the game, it’s like.. Girl, take a break, and go find yourself. The beat to Chun Li is lit but the words are garbaj. Laura been Croft? You’re the bad guy?? Hang it up! She has had no evolutionary growth in the last 10 years. Same ol same ol. “Im the Queen, these b!tches are my sons, she think she gonna take the thrown, Im going to send that b!tch home.”
YOU SAID A MOUTHFUL!
Nicki been talking about him in the songs. I’d comment until she quit throwing subs.
Bloop!
She had real fans before that trashassattitude put people off.
I can’t get into Cardi. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/37256663a6e7c14eaef05bfda136f5260b251fc571cce09aa3c2653d6c98ae78.gif
Be realistic its just like if chris brown went to an interview rihanna is probably gonna be brought up by the host
If he were re bitter he probably wouldve told them he wrote some of Nickis stuff
Js
Is this all he has going for himself other than his big ??
I agree with him ?????. Are they putting extras on cardi’s stomach? I feel like its really big..
These are facts! The beat carries the song. The barbie tingz song is terrible. But kelis spilled tea and said she left nas??? Can you believe that.
Yup!!
The size of her stomach changes everyday idc what yal say…
Babies shift.
Pregnant women can look 7 months pregnant and not too big one day – to looking gi-normous and ready to give birth the next.?
I know & understand that but dodge/deflect the question or turn the topic back to you…”I’m not sure about HER music, but let me tell u about my album/song that dropped” or pull a Mariah Carey & simply say “I don’t know her”
Easier said than done when they are paying you. He’s always gonna be attached to her like Rihanna and Karrueche will be attached to Chris Brown. People irritate me when they say why so and so gotta mention their name. One word…history.
Right. That’s why she sucks now. Safaree is not writing for her.
Subliminal message there. LOL!!!
No…he said what he said when asked. Then if he said no comment that is still considered shade. He said how he honestly felt.
He sounds hella bitter! He was just giving praises to her lines on Motorsport “you don’t want smoke with me this is a laced blunt” now he saying Cardi better. Stfu why is he relevant
And I said what I said.
*throne
Ok and it’s a stank ass world too
I really think those songs she released prior were an obligation to the main label. Regardless of if she has freedom she still has to submit work to the masses… so they can produce revenue to give in return to her parent company as a YMCMB/CMB artist…
my Moms too and she is 65 my daughter calls her Gma lol
I’m so confused by the comments. Most of you are saying Minaj’s songs are garbage but call him bitter or a hater for saying the same thing??
Lol come on you know her delivery is like 3rd place in the high school talent show. Comparing her to Nicki is just crazy i wouldn’t even compare her delivery to Trina. Listening to skylar diggins on Azaleas Slay Z album and she def not delivering better than Azelea. Good for her she selling albums but calling her better than people who rap way better than her is cray.
Yeah that still sounds like she’s kind of trapped. And cant make the kind of moves she might make if that weren’t the case. But, idk, she might really be proud of those singles and then this is a moot point.
I’d be like Beyonce & you can only ask the questions I give you BEFORE the interview
We can agree to disagree because idk if your baiting or just being quip either way Im not here for it….reclaim your time…
Have a great day!!! I haven’t found the emojis on my new phone so pretend there’s a smiley face and some hearts here.
No need too pretend when theres no f$cks given…
K.
it is not that Nicki songs are garbage….it’s just that they all are starting to sound the same…she needs to get a new edge, thats all. I like the beats, but the material sounds the same as her other songs….Sarafee is still a little salty…but whatever….Cardi is a new face and new sound….no hate just truth.
yes!!!!!! all of what you just said!!!
He is saying it’s garbage because he didn’t write it and frankly it’s true. Nicki songs are wack, her music went down even further when they broke up. He made her music, without him her vocab is worse than childlike.
This is true too
Babies shift not decrease in size…she looked huge oneday,small the next, barely showing another day..that ain no damn shifting my guy…
I’m female for 1.?? The tiara in my avi should have been the clue. Second, I know first hand that shifting babies can change the shape of the stomach making it appear larger or smaller than it really is. ?
Nicki’s personality sucks but safaree is biased about the songs. the flow on barbiethingz is crazy
I actually carried and gave birth for one…my stomach never got smaller it just looked oblong ….but everyone’s experiences are different…and “my guy” is just a phrase… I could care less what gender you are….
