With an established career at the Rick Ross-led Maybach Music Group, Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill has begun to branch out with his rap career thanks to his Dreamchasers Sports & Entertainment Summit, a new partnership with Monster, and other business ventures.
While speaking with HipHopSince1987 at the Dreamchasers Sports & Entertainment Summit, an event that brings “together some of the biggest names in both sports and entertainment,” Meek gave fans a look into his business mindset as he shared that he’s more concerned with competition rather than money.
“Man, I just like to make money. I got family to take care of,” the Philly lyricist revealed. “I like working. I like building things from the bottom. So, it’s competition to me. It ain’t really all about the money. It’s really competition. No matter if we playing checkers, soccer, dirt bikes, [wheeling], whatever it is. I just like building things and getting better.”
Prior to addressing his entrepreneurial side, Meek explained why he chose to start the Dreamchasers Sports & Entertainment Summit.
“I just wanted to put something together motivational for Philadelphia. We never really had these things and I’m one of the newest cats that came out of here on his way to success,” said Meek. “So, I just wanted to bring some energy back this way and put people on game with what it takes—in a successful world.”
On top of appearing at his sports and entertainment-inspired summit, Meek will also soon be releasing his much-anticipated Dreamchasers 3 mixtape. During his interview, the Dreams And Nightmares rapper spoke briefly on the project as he commented on Dreamchasers 3 being a mixtape that will infiltrate the clubs and the streets while also “touching the ladies.”
Despite a Fall 2013 release, the cover art for Meek’s Dreamchasers 3 mixtape was released at the top of the year and since that time the release date for the project has been pushed back several times.
After a brief stint at T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records, Meek Mill signed to Maybach Music Group in February 2011 and has gone on to release his debut album and a handful of other projects while signed to MMG.

I give him props for being a business and repping the streets but Meek Mill is not hip hop. He is rap. He is a Prince of Rap but not even a servant of hip hop…much success to him but I don’t think he will last long. Wale is definitely going to be around because of his hip hop roots and Stalley will end up being one of the bigger acts on MMG. Meek will still be relevant but his albums are going to be trash unless he understands the art of the music….
Enough Said bruh!
Yo this nicca needs to get off MMG they are a bunch of losers taking nothing but L’s this year.
Gunplay got knocked the fuck out again last week in his own state for talking tough and they carried him outta there lookin like somebody won him at six flags
LMAO!!!!1….”somebody won him at six flags”…..LMAO!
comment of the year LMAO
50 cent is the only platinum selling nicca to ever wear an MMG chain
Rule Talk
hillarious
funny how the author of this article wrote “Philly Lyricist” definitely a mmg stan
Yeah, wondered about that too.
STOP THE YELLING
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ANTE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHERE MY DAWGS AT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah Meek. The fuck’s wrong with you!
I see this dude loosing steam quicky….That Cassidy diss track, is a slow death blow….dude has not quite recovered from that situation yet. He is becomming a parody…. He is not even the second best on his label..Wale is making waay better music then him right now…and i’m not even a wale fan…just recognize quality music
Yup. It just sucks to see Cassidy & Meek in an old video together like family and then do what they did recently. Couldn’t they of just made some good music together?? It was fun, but only for a little while.
i agree completely
Just like last time, he’ll put all his hits on the tape, then put out a largely ignored album.
my neighbor’s step-mother makes $69 hourly on the laptop. She has been out of work for 6 months but last month her pay was $19099 just working on the laptop for a few hours. this article… http://www.Cafe44.com
Caressing Pac’s back? Wtf? Are you didn’t confuse that with the picture of Birdman and Lil Wayne giving each other mouth-to-mouth resuscitation?
It’s funny to see this nigga contradicting himself all the time. He said it ain’t about the money, yet he always talking about he get money. Make a decision, nigga.
thanks for saving me from pointing that out
glad to see others can read
You must be a white boy or a G Unit fan or both….weirdo.
