Rapper Meek Mill took to Instagram Tuesday, but it wasn't to get involved with his ex-girlfriend's drama. Even though his name was loosely brought up during the public fight, Mill was one of the few people who did not respond. Instead, the rapper promoted his music. He posted a video that's showed two kids enacting his new song, "Dangerous," with Jeremih and PNB Rock.
"You feel the vibe, it's contagious/ Look in yo eyes, shit is dangerous/ Grateful I had all the patience/ I know you going through some changes/ You taking pictures, know your angles/ Ooh, no we ain't perfect, but we damn close," the lyrics go. "Ooh, you give me something I can't pay for."
Mill captioned the video, "Yeaaaa young bull lol #dangerous" Within 12 hours, the post was viewed more than 1.2 million times and received nearly 10,000 comments.
Before Mill's post, Nicki Minaj, who he used to date, got into a Twitter war with her ex, Safaree Samuels, who she dated for 12 years. Safaree made numerous accusations against the Queen rapper, even saying she almost killed him by stabbing him to death. According to Safaree, he lied to police, saying he tried to kill himself to try to keep Minaj out of jail.
"Remember the night you cut me and I almost died the police and ambulance had to take me out the crib on a stretcher and I had to lie and tell them I was trying to kill myself so they wouldn't take you to jail," he tweeted. "When things like that start happening more than once it's time to dip."
Safaree continued: "Towards the end it got toxic and I just packed up and left. I did things for spite and so did you. I don't wish you bad and I don't want us back together just like I'm sure you don't. I don't need you. You don't need me but we will always be linked in the public no matter what."
Minaj didn't respond to the alleged assault. Instead, she called Safaree out for apparently getting his hairline surgically altered. "I should've never paid for that gyatDamn [sic] hairline!!!! It fell back out cuz God don't like ugly!!!! You used me but God had other plans!!!!!" she said. "Tyga shit ain't fall back out!!!! Y'all went to the same doctor!!! Yours fell out cuz GOD DONT LIKE UGLY!!!!!
