Safaree Samuels Disses Nicki Minaj On Twitter After American Music Awards: 'I Won An Award'

Safaree Samuels just dissed Nicki Minaj via Twitter, and it all had to do with the Young Money rapper winning a trophy at the 2015 American Music Awards.

Earlier today, we shared the news that Nicki won for Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Artist and thanked Drake during her acceptance speech.

Apparently, Safaree felt he should have been thanked too and took it upon himself to claim his ex's award. "Heard I won an award," he wrote. "The pen is always mightier than the sword. Dec 1rst, "It Is What It Is Vol. 2."

Samuel's tweet comes just days after news surfaced that he's suing Nicki for back royalties. According to numerous reports, the "Burner" spitter wants to be paid for writing on his exes albums and helping her put together some of her biggest hits.

At this time, it's not clear how much he's actually suing Nicki for, but presumably it's not for a small amount.

What is clear, however, is Nicki's frustration concerning the award show. As we reported earlier, some believed she was throwing shade at Jennifer Lopez after the Bronx beauty performed a rendition of "Anaconda," but people had it all wrong.

"Ya'll searching for a bad pic to post with all the beautiful pics from tonight floating around," wrote Minaj. "Lemme give ya'll some love, cuz the person who posted this clearly needs a hug."

Afterwards, the "All Eyes On You" lyricist praised her loyal Barbie fans and asked them to start circulating some of the nice photos from the awards ceremony.

"I also wanna give my babies more love, hugs and kisses for reppin' me tonight," wrote Nik. "Working on so much more amazing things to share with you. Tag these mofos in all the beautiful pics from tonight. LOL. We really had a great time."

As far as that shade filled tweet from Samuels, Nicki hasn't responded yet since she probably doesn't want to give him any more attention or fame.

Also, do you think the "Sabba Ranks" rapper sent that tweet just to promote his new mixtape? Please let us know in the poll question below.
