Young Money stars Nicki Minaj and Drake are two of the hottest MCs in hip-hop, and their relationship has some thinking that the pair are hooking up in ways beyond a label affiliation.
It seems Drake is officially over Rihanna and her trifling ways. The singer shared a steamy picture on Instagram of Nicki mounted to him on stage at the Summer Jam 2014, with the caption: “Oh brother where art thou?”
On his track Miss Me, he raps: “I love Nicki Minaj/ I told her I’d admit it/ I hope one day we get married just to say we f—ing did it/ And girl, I’m f—ing serious/ I’m with it if you with it/ ‘Cause your verses turn me on and your pants are mighty fitted."
In an interview with MTV in 2010, Drake said: “I’ve always really, actually, really had a crush on her, always really loved her, and she’s always just looked at me as, like, her little brother.”
He then followed that pic with a "Queen link up...way up". Now we are no dating experts but from the pics and the recent posts on his social channels, we are guessing that at some stage Drake and Nicki were more than singing friends.
Nicki on the other hand posted the same steamy pic with the caption: "Ya'll gotta chill. Lol this my brother." She even posted a pic posing with Rihanna (by the way Rihanna needs to learn to smile in her pics). Or maybe Rihanna was secretly wishing she could twerk like Nicki.
Drake and Rihanna first dated in 2009 shortly after Rihanna was the victim of a domestic violence assault involving her former boyfriend Chris Brown.
The two rekindled their romance in the last few months - first spotted together in Paris in February - but were reported to have broken up in mid-May.
Nicki performed at the hip hop and R&B festival along with the likes of Lil Wayne, Drake, 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa, Trey Songz, The Roots, Iggy Azalea, and Snoop Dogg, amongst numerous others.
Nicki posted pics of her and other creepy looking men..like this familiar rapper
We are not buying the friendzone story though. For the past few months, Drake has been in an on-again-off-again relationship with Rihanna. With Nicki talking about marriage with Drake, we think soon there will be another power couple in the music business (someone needs to dethrone Bey and Jay-Z).
Nicki talked up her love life in a new interview and even said she wanted to ‘run away’ with Drake and get married!
“One day I will run away with Drake and get married, but right now it’s just a fantasy,” Nicki told i-D.
Oh well, until the next steamy Instagram pic. Maybe Chris Brown will take Riri back.
