Safaree Samuels says good riddance to his Nicki Minaj tattoo on his forearm and covered the meticulous art work with a bed of roses.

The distinctive artwork that was once his girlfriend of 12-years is now covered, leaving no traces of his former flame. According to TMZ, the "It IS What It IS" rap star said it gave him an "overwhelming feeling of liberation."

In March 2014, the rapper's rumored boyfriend got Minaj's name with stars around it tattooed on his chest to complement her face tattoo across from it.

The hypeman has as many as three tattoos dedicated to Minaj on his body and notably his second tattoo of the 31-year-old's face. In July 2013, the couple flaunted matching rings on a "Myx & Mingle Cruise" with Mona Scott-Young in which blogger NecoleBitchie reported:

"It was a romantic night for Nicki, who spent most of the time by her partner-in-crime SB's side when she was dancing it up with the likes of Yandy Smith and Keke Wyatt," Necole Bitchie said. "She also presented SB with a birthday cake as the fireworks went off on the Hudson River, and both of them were wearing (what appeared to be) massive-sized, blinged out wedding bands on their finger."

Samuels explained his reason for getting his Minaj tattoos saying: "A lot of people out there tattoo somebody that they don't know. Why not tattoo somebody that I know, you know?" He compared his Bob Marley tattoo on his left arm. "The Bob Marley?" He added, "I don't know what I was thinking."
