Safaree Samuels Calls Out "Parasites" While Fake Quitting The Industry

A Twitter pump fake.

In a rather Twitter-dramatic moment earlier today, Safaree Samuels declared that he was done with his entertainment career. The reality star rapper took to his Twitter account to break the news to the masses. "After the birth of my daughter I’ve decided I’m leaving the industry I hope I made the parasites happy. God bless✌? STRAITT OUT," he wrote.

Anyone that has kept up with Safaree and his antics over the years should have known that a quick retraction was on its way because the Love & Hip Hop New York star couldn't shirk away from the limelight if he tried. He also recently released his album Straitt, so Safaree won't be bowing out that quickly. "It’s funny I can say anything and the parasites believe it," Safaree continued. "I ain’t going nowhere..... Go suckkkkk ya maddaaaaaaa." He also added, "I’m bout to go harder than ever b4... the biggest the hardest is coming."

Meanwhile, the 38-year-old rapper and his wife Erica Mena just welcomed their daughter into the world. While they have yet to reveal the newborn's name, they haven't hesitated to share photos of her first moments. "My daughter is sooooooooo beautiful OMGGGGGGG WOWWWWWWW," Safaree wrote. "These pass 24 hours have been an adventure... ‼️‼️‼️"

Safaree Samuels Rocks Fur & Stands On Billboard To Promote "STRAITT" Project


He returned to his old stomping grounds.

He’s been called “extra” over the years for a few of his antics, so it’s no surprise that Safaree Samuels went to these great lengths to promote his forthcoming album. The Love & Hip Hop New York star is not only preparing for the birth of his first-born with his wife Erica Mena, but he’s getting ready to release his next project, Straitt, as an independent artist.

With the release date approaching, Safaree decided to buy out billboard space in his hometown. That’s not enough for the flashy artist, so he decided to throw on a fur and stand on the billboard for good measure. People didn’t know exactly what was going on, but a person filming the scene noted that Fire & Rescue arrived because they believed that Safaree was someone who wanted to take their own life by jumping.

Safaree shared clips of the traffic-stopping even and wrote, “Respect the grind that’s all! Flatbush Junction in Brooklyn. I was raised here. So this one feels different. I could write a long speech but if you know you know…. BROOKLYN.. Jan 24th I’m independent so imma do what I gotta do‼️?.”

He added, “Jan 24th it’s STRAITT BANGERSS!! The crazy thing is when I thought to do this it was completely normal to me until I woke up this morning and spoke to some people.. ??? for real tho any1 who knows me knows I been this extra and this is Normal for me! For the ppl who love me thank you. And to the ones who don’t keep looking up ☝?☝?.” Check out Safaree being Safaree below, and read more from him on why Flatbush Junction holds a special place in his heart.
