Safaree Samuels and Erica Mena may in fact just be the “perfect couple.”

The pair had folks cracking up this week after they appeared on the latest season of “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta.” On Tuesday, April 21, Samuels took to his Instagram and posted a screenshot of reactions from him and his wife to finding out that one of their “LHHATL” castmates was cheating.

The photo showed Samuels’ astonished face and Mena’s uneasy look. The couple, along with “LHHATL viewers,” witnessed their fellow co-star Shooter get busted for cheating on one of his girlfriends.

Samuels poked fun at the picture and wrote in the caption, “The face I make when I find out you ain’t click the link in my bio.”

Fans cracked up at the rapper’s post.

“Shooter know that was messy😤😑. Y’all are too funnnnyyyy!”

“Omg I can’t with y’all!!! Y’all faces were priceless 😭”

“Yo . I was dying last night. U and Erica made the show so hilarious. Best part of the show 🙌”

“Lol 😂yes I saw y’all last night!! Jus Petty lol. Y’all killed me dead”

“Omg. Couldn’t wait 4 this meme 2 cum out. I was hollering during the episode 😄. This is why y’all make a good couple.”

“That’s the face you make when wifey bouts to beat someone TF down 😂”

Both Samuels and his wife have appeared on multiple seasons of “Love and Hip Hop.“

The twosome initially met on VH1 reality show “Scared Famous.” At the time, Samuels was interested in Mena, but she didn’t pay him the least bit of attention.

“When we did scared famous I use to say so many things jokingly not knowing it would become real life,” the Hunnid rapper wrote in a January 2019 post. “I am so in love with you. The respect you give me, the way you uplift me and make me feel like a man is something people wouldn’t believe. I get to be with the real you and I love every second of it. You make me feel like I can do anything and I love you so much for it. I don’t need to look any further because I found you.”

Samuels and Mena tied the knot on October 7, 2019, and welcomed their first child together this February. Mena also has a son from a previous relationship.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
