Safaree Samuels Is Not Here for Nicki Minaj's Birthday

The rapper won't be getting any presents from her ex.

Birthday wishes are pouring in for Nicki Minaj, who turned 33 years young on Tuesday, but she shouldn't expect a card or a present from her ex Safaree Samuels.
TMZ caught up with the rapper, who dated Minaj for more than a decade before their split last year, and asked him if he had any birthday message for the "Truffle Butter" femcee. His response was hilarious.
"My sister's birthday is tomorrow. Happy birthday, Shaniqua," Safaree responded. "I love you with all my heart. You're my life, you're my heart, you're my everything." When the TMZ cameraman pressed him again, asking if he had a message for Minaj, he said, "Happy birthday, Shaniqua. I love you, you're the best."
Message received. 
Safaree was more than happy to talk about his new mixtape, though. Watch the hilariously awkward exchange below:

Nicki is probably getting plenty of love from her man Meek Mill (and the rest of the world) on her b-day, so we doubt she'll be bothered by Safaree's diss. In any case, she has bigger things on her mind these days, given all the drama going down with her brother:
