Meek Mill Advocates for New Ways to Handle Rap Beef
Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill has taken a surprising stance on handling rap beefs, encouraging avoidance and promoting a focus on positive choices. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday (January 6), Meek shared his thoughts on navigating conflicts within the hip-hop community.
“I’m too rich to choose sides in beefs,” Meek Mill declared, emphasizing that he is a source for the streets, providing resources, money, and connections. He added, “If we don’t have a direct problem, don’t even think about what side I’m on. I’m on Dream Chasers’ side.”
This unanticipated advice comes from Meek Mill, known for his involvement in several rap beefs throughout his career. The rapper’s perspective aligns with a previous tweet on January 2, where he encouraged young people to prioritize education over street hustling as a means to escape poverty.
“Being gangsta will get you hurt, put in jail or killed… being smart will get you out of poverty and your family and friends living better,” Meek stated in the tweet. He emphasized that intelligence is the solid way out of the trenches, urging followers to choose a path that avoids unnecessary life risks.
While some fans urged Meek to align his lyrics with his newfound perspective, others praised him for the positive message. Rapper Dee-1 commended Meek for sparking a meaningful conversation that could lead to positive changes in the culture.
In a video shared on Instagram on January 5, Dee-1 acknowledged Meek’s impact, stating, “Big Salute to @meekmill… Stating Big Facts that will have a domino effect. Let’s be smart and we can all win! A Shift Is Happening!!!”
Meek Mill also hinted at new music in the works, sharing on X/Twitter that he had recorded a new introductory track for his upcoming album. Expressing confidence in its impact, he claimed it could potentially surpass the success of his iconic “Dreams & Nightmares” track.
“I just laid a new intro. I think it will top dreams and nightmares!!!! Nobody can tell me different but the streets! Ima drop it b4 my album!!!!” Meek Mill declared, teasing fans with the anticipation of his upcoming musical release.
