JAY-Z & Meek Mill Don’t Want Travis Scott To Perform At Super Bowl LIII

    Maroon 5 finally found a rapper to join them for the Super Bowl LIII halftime show when Travis Scott signed on to perform. But some of Scott’s peers don’t necessarily believe that’s something to celebrate. The NFL has been under fire since ostracizing former San Francisco 49er Colin Kaepernick for protesting the National Anthem in support of social justice.

    According to Variety, Scott’s decision isn’t sitting well with JAY-Z, who has been vocal about his stance against the NFL. Two sources reportedly said Hov is trying to dissuade Scott from going through with the performance.

    Meanwhile, Meek Mill simply doesn’t understand it. The Championships architect addressed the news via Twitter on Thursday (December 20).

    “For what?” he wrote. “He don’t need that he on fire already! Stay strong in this shit!”

    For anyone who perceived Meek’s comments as vitriol aimed at Scott, he made sure to clarify how he feels about him.

    “And don’t get it twisted,” he added. “I fuck wit Travis too!”

    It’s understandable Meek would feel strongly about Travis’ participation. Since stepping out of Chester State Prison in April, he’s become the face of criminal justice reform.

    The Philadelphia native has been stuck in the system for roughly a decade and most recently, was facing two to four years in prison for a probation violation. It was a sentence many deemed harsh. After serving five months, Meek emerged from prison and was thrust into the public spotlight in this new advocate role.

    1. Because his Thot baby mother/wife and family want front row tickets to promote themselves. We know Kylie will have it extra lit for her man but regardless……. THOT BE GONE!!

    2. Why ANY artist or group would want to be associated with the NFL is confusing…money talks, taking a stance against racist bullshit walks.

        1. Don’t be simple. 1 man knelt, quietly, minding his own business. Just as a player on the Seahawks had been doing every single game for several seasons (but nobody ever brings that up). ALL of this “contraversy” is media derived and executed. Gullible people argued, especially when trump LIED and brought the military into it because he’s been trying to sue or get back at the NFL since the 80s, and simple mass public millions fell for it
          instead of adressing the actual issue that this 1 man quietly knelt for.

    3. Didn’t Beyoncé perform a few years ago? The NFL doesn’t control what a few bad cops do. Let me to work and protest and see if I will working the next day.

    4. Texas Is A Football State ! If you don’t watch Friday Night Lights the movie and the show NBC show Friday Night Lights shout to B. .Jordan – Don’t sleep on CW All American !

    5. Free college is literally slavery huh? Wonder if any of your ancestors who may have been slaves would agree. Highly doubt it..

      1. Slaves had “free” homes, food and clothing too right? Is that what you would call it?Free is a relative term. What the hell is free about an education that you can get just by having good grades when you’re beating your body up and risking life-long brain damage while white people make billions off you and make it against the law for you to see a penny of it. Yeah that doesnt sound like slavery at all huh?

    6. Why wouldn’t he do this? Colin has made his point, and got a nice big cheque from Nike. But this is the NFL, it would be an honor to prefrom! and maybe reach some peolpe who havnt heard of him and make him even more loot!

    7. F*CK weak meekness and j – they WISH they had the Spotlight on THE BIGGEST WATCHED Event in the World! meek gonna be playin’ a roach infested club that night and J’s such a hypocrite reppin’ players on the field! Go TRAVIS f*ck tha Haters!

      1. They asked Jay every year him and Em both they’ve turned them down every time. They offered Em 2 million for it and he still said nope.

    8. It’s about pride and respect, you freaking dorks. I’m really surprised that you would call out Jay and meek when they are obviously trying to support Travis with positive energy. “get da money”. Yeesh, I would’ve want you in my corner

      1. And? That’s how you stay paid. King Hov’s biggest fans are middle aged suburban women and his wallet stays fat. Nas makes music for his people and he stays broke.

    9. Has Travis Scott ever had a hit single? Will the crowd at the game or TV viewers even know anything about any of his music?

    10. I agree that Travis should change his mind and have nothing to do with this. But Jay-Z the biggest effin hypocrite in the world for speaking on this. He would sellout his people in a second if there was a dollar to be made out of it so he needs to keep his black-card-revoked nose out of Travis business.

      1. If Jay-Z wanted 2 do SuperBowl half-time he could. The old white guys that make these decisions would take Jay-Z over Travis Scott right now if that was a viable option. SuperBowl do their best 2 showcase ‘Legends’. Look it up, mad ppl: RayCharles , MJ, Dianna Ross, James Brown, BoyzIIMen, Stevie, ect.. Jay-Z could do this show, he chooses not to.

    11. Nickers are so dumb and Gaye shoot this shoot that yeah blue gang crew all day let’s shoot each others dads yeah hella hard click crew dog. Leave the country you are a waste of life. Slave boyz

      1. Hey Tommy girl, why don’t you go fuck yourself. You just wish you could get dicked down by a real one, only reason you here

    12. But hasn’t Meek Mill been dickriding his old white buddy Robert Kraft (Trump supporter) since he got out of jail?

    13. Jay Z and Meek Mill should let artists do wtf they want and stop trying to make everything a statement. I understand the issues with the NFL but guess what? Im black and I watch football every week. Most of the NFL consists of black players, coaches, assistants etc. Point being that the black masses are not boycotting the game- that is not a thing. Performing at the Super Bowl is a time honored milestone for young artists. Its easy for Jay Z to sit on his billion and tell another man what not to do. Nevermind that his wife performed the halftime show as well.

    14. These dudes are so ignorant. They play politics over actually helping.

      They had the opportunity to work with the president to help black America, and prison reform. They decided it wasn’t worth hurting their image to actually make their voice heard in the oval office.

      Trump clearly wants to make black people like him, so I think he’s more than willing to hear them out, and work side by side with them to change America. But they won’t do it. …. They’ll never have this opportunity ever again.

    15. Look this is so simple…they are fake ass advocates, all they want is the “symbolism” of it all. Cuz in reality, you know the real world not fantasy land, the proper play here is to do the show, and then donate all the money to the “cause”. But that’s if you really wanted to help the “cause” and not just always have a card to fall back on when you need to get some publicity. There is an opportunity here to actually do something, do the biggest halftime show of all time and take the benefits of that to help your cause. Or you can be a phony and just do a lot of talking/bullying. The shit is laughable

      1. You dumb. That was a dumb thing to say. Simple? I think not. Donate to the cause?…like what , a go fund for me for institutionalized … (forget it man you dumb)

    16. The NFL has been under fire since ostracizing former San Francisco 49er Colin Kaepernick for protesting the National Anthem

      except that never happened

    17. Everyone should boycott watching the Superbowl next year. Also boycott Travis Scott house negro if he performs. He’s a Kardashian sellout

      1. Hahaha. Travis is a house Negro, but Jay and Pusha T performing at a Hillary Clinton rally makes than blCk heroes? Are you THAT ignorant? Stay on the plantation for your whole life for all I care. Hell, black people today should be calling MLK Jr. An Uncle Tom

    18. Why they always look for the next black artist they could’ve easily picked a white artist to replace cardi.

    19. Is it funny …. MEEK has a album called CHAMPIONSHIPS … with looks to be EAGLE COLORS and a SB RING … … . But when invited to the white house to talk about what he cares about … he showed who his handler was …… DO WHAT THOU WILT GAY – Z …… boom you dead, out the game – tupac
