Why he and Nicki broke up
“It just got to the point where the respect was gone. You know, I don’t want to get too deep into all of that. It’s just everyone around her works for her…It got to the point where it was like, I’m your man, I’m the one you go to sleep with every night. I’m who you wake up with every morning. It got to the point where, I was being treated like an employee. Instead of like her man. After awhile, I’m like ‘all right.’ ”
Safaree helped with Nicki’s lyrics
“Yo, everybody gets help and there’s nothing wrong [with] getting help. I’m not saying I’m biting, I’m not saying I’m the originator, this is something me and her [sic] did together. And that don’t [sic] take away from what she’s done. She’s still the top of her league.”
Safaree was suicidal after the breakup
“I definitely, definitely have been in places where I [didn’t] wanna be here anymore. I think everybody has felt like that before. It’s not an easy thing to deal with. But now, I can see it and not be bothered. Before it was hard for me to listen to the radio and she would come out. … Now, it’s tunnel vision. It don’t [sic] bother me anymore.”
