Meek Mill had a lot of time to think about his priorities during his time at Chester State Prison and now, he’s attempting to lead by example. In a recent Instagram post, the Philly-bred rapper challenged his peers to worry less about material things and more about making business moves.

“PSA: 2019 all rappers let’s start having a property and owning business challenge instead of Jewelry jets and cars, keep it up to par but let’s switch it up and level up so we can have money when we 50+ from years of hard work and grinding! Smarten up!!”

2 Chainz evidently cosigns Meek’s sentiments. On Christmas (December 25), the artist formerly known as Tity Boi shared a screenshot of Meek’s original post and captioned it with, “SALUTE! Guess I’ll crank this challenge up @meekmill.”

And Nipsey Hussle is down, too.
