Over the weekend, Nicki Minaj and rapper beau Meek Mill were the topic of discussion after fellow rapper Joe Budden took jabs at Meek for his overly affectionate display towards his lady Minaj. Well, Nicki and her new relationship with Meek wasn't the only relationship being talked about over the July 4th weekend, as her ex and former hype man Safaree Samuels celebrated his Birthday festivities with an extremely attractive lady his side that sources are now reporting as his girlfriend. Hmmm and the plot thickens.

Though Nicki and Safaree's relationship has been long done for the last couple of months, their 12-year union still remains a source of curiosity and mystery to fans. According to The Shade Room, "TSR caught wind of Safaree doing a Q & A on his IG where he alluded to having a special girl in his life. Now it looks like they may have made their debut together in Miami this past weekend!" The new lady in Safaree's life is Zashia Santiago, who is a pretty well know model and makeup artist in Miami. In addition, the beauty is a fixture on this season of Nick Cannon's Wild N Out as a WNO girl. Looks like the hot South Beach beauty entered the "Love the Most" rapper's life at just the right time to help him salve his wounds behind Nicki's quick rebound. It doesn't hurt that his new leading lady is quite the beauty herself, and actually might give Nicki room for pause to go start perusing Safaree's Instagram, just like Meek who was recently caught scrolling through Safaree's IG after liking a picture on his page. Shrugs. Is this the end of this real Love and Hip Hop love triangle? Who's to say?  But in the meantime take a look at footage of apparent lovebirds, Safaree and Zashia, hanging out on South Beach together.
