Nicki Minaj posted a photo to Instagram cozying up next to rapper Nas after her split from Meek Mill. Are Nicki and Nas dating?
Nicki Minaj shared a personal photo that has fans running wild with ideas. The “No Frauds” female rapper posted a picture of her and Nas with his arm around her and his face nuzzled in her ear.
Nicki’s eyes were closed in the snap and she held her purse on her lap. Nas wore a backward army-patterned baseball hat, a white hoodie, and a large diamond pendant chain.
Nicki captioned the Instagram post, “Only KINGS recognize QUEENS,” and congratulated the rapper. The two were celebrating the opening of the rapper’s West Coast expansion of his Sweet Chick line of restaurants.

It appears that Nicki and Nas were not alone. DJ Statik Selektah was on the opposite end of the table and shared a selfie of the dinner.

Minaj has known Nas since 2012. The male rapper starred in Nick’s music video for “Right By My Side.”
“Nas and Nicki” has apparently been floating around on Twitter for months before she shared the photo with him, according to Hip Hop Wired.
Nicki broke things off with her long-term boyfriend, Philly-born Meek Mill, earlier this year. The female rapper confirmed her breakup on Twitter in January, according to E! News.
The couple was apparently having major communication issues, according to an insider.
“They were fighting on and off for a little while about a few topics that upset Nicki. They had a bigger fight and then called it quits.”
All eyes will be on Nicki and Nas moving forward to see if these two are really going to become an item or if this was just a case of some casual, friendly flirting.
Nicki Minaj reportedly retweeted a screenshot of a hashtag for her and Nas trending on Twitter, with the caption “Y’all so d**n silly” and a laugh-crying emoji face, according to Radio.com.
Nicki confirmed that she was single back in January, saying that she planned to focus on working on new music for her fans.
