Meek Mill is in the midst of a press run for his new album Wins & Losses and recently stopped by The Angie Martinez Show for an extensive interview. During the conversation, the Maybach Music Group artist touched on his feud with 50 Cent and revealed the two were able to squash the beef out of the public eye.
“People don’t know about this, I actually seen 50 Cent one day,” Meek told Martinez. “I seen 50. He coming out a hotel. You know, we going back and forth on the internet. Believe it or not, 50 and them a serious situation in traffic. This ain’t no average little lightweight rapper.
“Yo, we hollered,” he continued. “We went to the side like men. Like men, we had a good conversation. You know we both come from the streets, you know what this can lead to. ‘You got these type of dudes with you. I got these type of dudes with me. I always looked up to you, fam. I don’t know how we got on this foot.’ Such and such.”
The war of words, which began in 2015, mainly played out on social media, but also produced subliminal disses like the ones on Meek’s “Gave Em Hope.” The beef had an extra level of tension due to 50’s longstanding issues with Meek’s boss Rick Ross. The two sides were able to clear the air and quell the matter before it got out of hand.

“Rick Ross, unfortunately, just happened to be the person that put me on,” he said. “I’m just here, you know how this go. If I was on your team, it would be the same way. He said what he had to say, I respected what he said. I said what I said, he respected what I said. That was nine months ago. We left that in the dark. So, if you mighta seen us out. I’ve never seen him since. You might see us run into each other out in the public and we smiling. People like, ‘Why they smiling?’ ‘Cause we addressed it just like men in traffic.”
