It seems Meek Mill hasn’t been impressed by too many emcees of late. According to Mill, he feels many rappers “have been shying away from the real rapping in Hip Hop.” This is what he explained in a recent interview, where he was also asked to list his top emcees.
“I ain’t gonna say no order but it’s Biggie [Notorious B.I.G.], Tupac, Jay-Z…I’d say Nas and Lil Wayne maybe? Yeah, Lil Wayne,” he shared with Wild 94.9.
Meek was also asked to name his favorite album.
“My favorite album? Jay-Z’s [Vol. 2…Hard Knock Life]. That’s the first album I ever had.”
