Drama: Safaree Reportedly Set To Sue Nicki Minaj

Published: Monday 16th Nov 2015 by Sam

The split between longtime lovers Nicki Minaj and Safaree Samuels is growing more acrimonious.

So much so that Samuels is reportedly gearing up to take his issue with Onika to the court house!

Details below…

TMZ reports:

Sources connected with Safaree tell us he wants a cut from 3 of Nicki’s hugely successful albums — The Pink Print, Pink Friday and Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.

Safaree also wants a piece of the pie from some of Nicki’s biggest singles, including “Only” featuring Chris Brown, Drake and Lil Wayne, “Flawless (Remix)” with Beyonce and “Feeling Myself” with Bey.

We’re told Safaree will present a boatload of proof he was super involved in Nicki’s work. His evidence includes videos of him working with Nicki, voice memos from recording sessions, hours of footage from studio sessions. He says he also has multiple witnesses to validate his contribution.

And Safaree says Nicki herself acknowledged his contribution by giving him executive producer credit on her first 2 albums.

Our sources say Safaree has already lawyered up and a lawsuit is “imminent.”

Needless to say, anyone holding out hope for a reconciliation can put those wishes in the bin.

If indeed true, this is set to get all sorts of messy.

    Good. She had some nerve insinuating other female rappers don’t write their own raps meanwhile Safaree has been writing + giving her ideas from the start. Give the man his royalties. I always thought Nicki was shady + conniving. I don’t trust her. Sue her a** SB!

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      I hope he takes her for everything she is worth. Oinknika is a thief, a liar, and a bitttch to the fuqqing core. She is not a nice person. Karma is about to get that prosthetic azzzzz. Everything Lil’ Kim said about her is true.

      • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

        You sound so hurt sis.

    • What now November 16, 2015

    what is money is drying up now, make sense to sue your ex right.for some ideas it’s not impossible for him to put in is two cents. like if nicki was writing and was going to say apple and he said apples would sound better on that verse.and she agrees with him.but for him to see when Nicki was clearly the one who was taking care of him dude was living like a king, some people was saying in the pass when they broke up that dude is going to try and sue her in some ways are the other, when is money starts to dry up.

    • Bey-Minaj November 16, 2015

      And that’s exactly what the fuckboy! is doing. Suing her cuz his coins are almost dried up. She already gave him credit for Did It On Em and a couple other songs. Giving credit however doesn’t mean that he wrote but probably tossed a few ideas around. He’s gonna have a hard time in court.

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      You barfz are fuqqqing delusional. Where the fuqq are Oinknika’s bars since Safaree left? Safaree has been putting out verse after verse & song after song since he left Oinknika’s prosthetic azzzzz, but Oinknika has barely put out any songs, and her verses are trash now. Safaree was writing those bars. Stop being fuqqing delusional. Your fave can’t write for herself. I can’t wait for the court evidence to come out and for Oinknika to be exposed.

      • Bravo!! November 16, 2015

        Your right!! A example is her flow on the weekend song…

    • Tali November 16, 2015

      Let me put something into perspective for you. You dated someone since HS who you’ve pretty much dropped everything to support their career. You agree to help them come up with the ideas, words, content for songs and their entire brand without them giving you credit. One day, things change and you realize you’re not happy anymore. And when you break up, your ex starts to bash you. Nobody in the music industry wants to work with you because they want to maintain ties with your ex. Thus. you can’t get work and nobody wants you to write for them and you can’t make $$.

      Safaree would be a complete idiot to sue over apple / apples. Not only would it be a complete waste of $$ in court, but this is a huge uphill battle against the record label. And if he loses, he will be have no money and still be blacklisted. Another thing, in this industry, if you sue the label, you don’t get any more deals after that. So this is essentially career s******. And this is something you don’t do over the word apple / apples.

      People are so quick to jump at a person for going after something they feel they deserve. Safaree made poor business decisions as many of us do when we’re stupid and in love. While if it were me, I would choose a different route because I would eventually want people to work with me once the beef with my ex died off. But as someone who actually works in the industry, I can understand his position.

      • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

        The barfz are just delusional. They said the apple/apples thing because they want to believe that their fave writes. That h0 doesn’t write shittt. And she thought her relationship with Safaree was so strong that she’d never be exposed for being a non-rhyming bitttch.

      • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

        Really, really nice try. Now what you should do is read her album credits. Anything he’s been involved in says Safaree Samuels. Whether its writing and/or producing. Do your research before you type sis.

      • truth(Janet is QWEEN, was a hot MaDINOSAUR is a flop! Deal!) November 16, 2015

        Biitch stop writting fuqn novels and deal with the fact he suing the ho…HO!

  4. Flawless 1 November 16, 2015

    I’m not surprised. I’m over her. I know queen latifah better not salute her ass after this. And give that award to missy.

    I know lil kim at home laughing.

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      The Queen of Rap Lil’ Kim told you: Everything that’s hidden in the dark will eventually come to the light. Oinknika thought she was on top of the world and she could just keep throwing shade and being evil to others who paved the way for her. Oinknika may be a bitttch, but karma is about to show her who the baddest bittttch of all is.

      • All_Love_ November 16, 2015

        So you’re telling me Kim-Martian never had anyone assist in her writing process and you talk about being delusional….biggie and many other I’m more than sure pushed her pen to make her songs what they were……once again Kim’s daughters can’t help but to feed off stuff like this but when Nicki comes out on top you feelings and yo weave gone be in they feelings

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      Her prosthetic azzzzz will have to get redone by the time Safaree is done frying this non-rhyming bittch in court.

  6. Bey-Minaj November 16, 2015

    And this Ladies and gents is what you call a FuckBoy!

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      And this ladies and gentlemen is why you should come in the game with humility and pay proper homage to the women who paved the way for you, without calling them washed and has-beens. You may win for a while, but it’s never pretty when karma comes back for you and makes an entire mess of your prosthetic azzzz for all the public to see.

      2016: The Year Oinknika has a rap battle with Karma that she can’t win.

  7. Flawless 1 November 16, 2015

    This is what happens when you come in the game throwing shade.

    I know wasn’t a writer.
    She still cute though.

        Doll, not you creating this fake ass account just to have someone co-signing your delusional ass. Tragic lmao

  8. HailBeysus November 16, 2015

    Lmao what a total freeloading ass fuckboy!!! Bey get her team ready and knock this b**** off them Royalties for Flawless (remix). I can’t stand people who get dumped by SOMEONE RICHER than them, then go on saying im responsible for their success. Why wasn’t you arguing for these ROYALTIES when y’all was together!?!?!?!

    • Guest November 16, 2015

      Smh…hold this L

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      Safaree wrote that heffa’s bars. Yes he is responsible for her success.

  9. Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

    …a true fvckboy .. just like Terrence

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      Everyone is a fvckboy when they expose Oinknika for the fucccking dishonest arrogant bitttch that she is. Sooner or later you delusional fvcks will have to come to realization that your fave is a non-rhyming bitttch who is just not a nice person. Karma is ready for that prosthetic azzzzz.

      • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

        Its not about exposing. It’s no surprise that he’s been helping her. He’s a fvckboy for suing this b**** over it lmao. You a grown a$$ and apparently BROKE man. Bye

  10. Taylor Tori Azalea November 16, 2015

    I believe it all
    .
    But he surely won’t win
    .
    Not when Beyonce and her “bestie”(fake bestie so you know) have a pusSsy and a mouth to suck

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      He will win if he has the evidence to back it up. I’m sure Safaree has all kinds of voice memos & reference tracks and other evidence. He’s been writing the vast majority of that h0’s bars. When he exposes her fully, her career will be OVER! R.I.P. Oinknika Garbaj’s career: 2010-2015.

  11. Taylor Tori Azalea November 16, 2015

    And the Lil kim and Messy Elliot stans need to chill TF down
    .
    These 2 will never ever happen

    • HailBeysus November 16, 2015

      Um who’s return???

  13. LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

    Well, well, well. What a difference a few years makes. Didn’t the Queen of Rap Lil’ Kim tell you that what is hidden in the dark will eventually come to the light? This bish stole Kim’s entire swag, and had a ghostwriter writing all of her bars, and she had the nerve to attack other female rappers for not writing their rhymes. She has thrown so much shade and tried to destroy people with evil and she thought karma wouldn’t come for dat a**?

    This is only the beginning. Her fall is going to be one of the most spectacular things in music history. Watch God pay Oinknika back for all the evil things she has done.

    • Rihnavy on your you know what November 16, 2015

      B**** you better not with these stupid ass essays giving me @chille it’s me the essay writter tease
      nobody wanna waste their time reading comments with no sense

    • JT November 16, 2015

      You still stuck on this Lil Kim beef nonsense 5 years later? No one cares in big 2015 move onnnnn

    • Bey-Minaj November 16, 2015

      Annnnnnd 36874215987 years after and you still waiting for her to fall, when your as should be falling the fawk back. #WinAgain

      • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

        Typical Oinknika fan. Arrogant even in the face of humiliation. You’d think this is the time to be humble.

  14. Rihnavy on your you know what November 16, 2015

    And Lmao @annualise going into hiding after it was dragged by Ispeakliesandfellacy

  15. JT November 16, 2015

    But when she drops all them literal receipts from what what she’s bought him, and that he paid nothing living in her house, lawsuit cancelled. He’s stupid for this I remember when he wasn’t going to be petty now his money is obviously running out, he’s looking for a lil boost smh

    • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES November 16, 2015

      Whether Safaree wins or not in court, this is going to land a huge blow to Oinknika’s career. She has spent years throwing shade at other women for not writing their rhymes and pretending she is an amazing writer. She is about to be exposed and everyone is about to wake up to the fact that her entire career has been a huge scam. Even if Safaree doesn’t win a penny from her in court, all he needs to do is upload his evidence online and Oinknika’s career is OVER (except with the most delusional barfz). Either way, Oinknika LOSES! Karma WINS.

      • JT November 16, 2015

        At other women you mean Kim because she’s clearly your fav… If he wasn’t paid for his exec producer credits I’d understand that but if it’s exchanging ideas he’s reaching. Now I’m not some childish Nicki stan believe me i know when she’s been trash, but there’s always 2 sides to a story then the truth. We don’t even know what kind of “evidence” he has in these voice notes or whatever he’s now claiming so we’ll just see how this plays out.

  16. Kee November 16, 2015

    Good.It took him long enough…

  17. TerryB November 16, 2015

    Y’all defending Onika for what? We know that SB contributed to her work, she needs to pay him like any other producer or writer of her music would get paid.

    • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

      that’s the thing. He was credited and payed for anything he’s been involved with. He wants MORE. He should sit has money hungry A$S down. He won’t win a dime. I betchu

  18. Barb-wire November 16, 2015

    It’s f****** hilarious how Nicki putted a roof over his head, food on his mouth and gave him a chance to be known bcoz we didn’t the fu¢k he was before Nicki and his relationship were known. What’s funny is he keeps on saying he’s moving on from her and wants nothing to do with her but he keeps doing stupid stuff like this. Guess it’s jealousy coz her career is still on the rise even after their split, I used to like the guy but now… We’ll see if he actually sues.

    • SWISH November 16, 2015

      What’s hilarious is that grammar you’re using. Since when did “putted” become a word? lmao

  19. Ronnie November 16, 2015

    SB is just trying to keep himself relevant and he obviously needs money to live the life he’s trying to maintain after Nicki. It’s crazy that the only people that seem to support him are Nicki haters because the only time he seems relevant is when he’s going against her. Yet he’s dropped a ton of music that nobody talks about, while Nicki is still out her handling her business. Im not saying he didn’t help with anything but he even said it himself that she doesn’t need help to write her bars because she’s smart. You don’t win being greedy, and this is just going to hurt his career more than hers. People are going to be paying some much attention to her next album just to see what it sounds like without SB around. And also for the Lil Kim fans jumping to his defense are sheep, if SB has helped Nicki that means he’s been helping righting those diss songs towards your fav. Y’all just Nicki so much y’all praying for a downfall that’s probably never going to come.

  20. Barb-wire November 16, 2015

    I’m living for Onika’s impact on K** stan! Gurl is so bothered AF it actually has me in tears. Makes me think it’s K** in disguise, you not fooling anyone Lil Gremlin.

  21. Barb-wire November 16, 2015

    And I don’t wanna see any Lil Ching Xen Jong Stan talking about anyone ghostwriting for anyone! Not when K** was riding Biggie’s married Co¢k for rhymes.

  22. King Stephy November 16, 2015

    Karma is coming for Nicki. I’ve never really paid attention to her, but after doing some research… She been very shady/mean/fake to alot of people whom really helped her to get where she is at today. And, this man is a HUGE part of that. I believe him, he was probably writing all ha lil corny ass rhymes. I wonder, was he the one whom wrote “Flow tighter than a dickkk in da b***”… That line was funny as hell. AnTEAways, Nicki call up Mariah & see how she survived the Karma attack, cause you in for a ride sista goorl. BYE

    • Bey-Minaj November 16, 2015

      Actually he only claimed to contribute to 3 songs and Nic gave him credit on DIOE. SB said himslef that Nicki is smart and does not need help writing. You pick and choose what you want to believe from him, to support your hating a** ways of thinking.

  23. chanel November 16, 2015

    Nickiminaj will be ok I think and wanting someone to fall is not the way to go really if she owes him she need to pay an move on sometimes I don’t like nickiminaj attitude but wish bad on someone don’t make it right either well just see what happens and better watch out for meek

  24. Idcfff November 16, 2015

    This is what happens when you bite the hand that feeds you. Where are any of the people who helped her get ln top? No where to be found. She has no loyalty. If she did SB wouldnt even stoop to this he would have been paid off ….

  25. Oh-my lanta November 16, 2015

    yep following lil kim’s career to a t, they both have ghost writers biggy- lil kim, safaree-nicki

    • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

      lol I see team kim couldn’t take this comment

  26. Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 16, 2015

    Let’s be honest. We all knew it was only a matter of time before the passive aggressive shade turned into legal jabs. That man is entitled to wherever he rightfully deserves, but if he tries to get credit for everything and anything (kind of like how some women take from men during a divorce) then I’m not gonna support that. Nicki just needs to “focus” on promoting her latest single and stop paying it dust. Plus, why do people keep saying Safaree is Jamaican? I thought he had the same Caribbean culture as Nicki.

    • Ciah’s Turtle November 16, 2015

      Nope.. Jamaican Sis

  27. Keri Qween November 16, 2015

    Lmao. Good

  28. King Mark111 /.\ November 16, 2015

    Lil Kim did say the truth will come to the light. Everyone is seeing Nicki for the fake that she is. “Better have Meek rewrite your bars” -Missy

    • Ciah’s Turtle November 17, 2015

      B****, who is everyone? 12 hating A$S Fvggots on this site?? plz ok
