Meek Mill has voiced his displeasure with BET having his ex-girlfriend and baby mother Milan Rouge participate in a cypher at the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards.
Airing on Tuesday night (October 4), the Philly spitter believes the network’s motive was “pure manipulation” and that Rouge was “setup” for “embarrassment” as the fashion designer gave her best shot at moonlighting as a rapper.

“Ion like ‘bet’ got my bm tryna spit bars for attention/clout,” Meek wrote to Twitter on Wednesday (October 5). “It’s like a setup embarrassment made to look like opportunity! and I’m with the “women hustler empowerment motion” but y’all drawin .. Pure manipulation.”
It wasn’t all hate on the Twitter timeline as one fan showed some love to Milan’s cypher. “Milano didn’t do bad on her cypher rap,” they wrote. “Let’s set the record straight.”
Meek Mill and Milan welcomed a child in 2020, which was his third and her first. They broke up shortly after in the summer of 2020. Milan is also known for being the head of her clothing line Milano Di Rouge.
The Dreamchasers boss hasn’t held back when it comes to criticizing the music industry. He recently blasted Atlantic Records for his low earnings when it came to his last album, Expensive Pain, which celebrated its one-year anniversary at the top of October.
