This year simply was not the year for hip-hop couples to be great. One breakup that caught many in the public off guard was Nicki Minaj splitting with her long time boyfriend Safaree Samuels. Nicki broke her silence about the faltered relationship in a recent interview with Power105. But things got heated today on Twitter between the former love birds. It all seemingly started when someone asked Safaree if he would be doing any interviews about his relationship with the rap star.

From there, things went all the way to the left with Nicki, who apparently took ill to the notion off Samuels spilling any beans on their relationship, calling out her ex for taking advantage of her kindness and love. Safaree denied Nicki's accusations and the back-and-forth that followed was pretty awkward to watch play out.
