Meek Mill has found himself reflecting on his past beef with Drake after his former rival took legal action in his more recent (and less successful) feud with Kendrick Lamar.
Issues between Meek and Drizzy cropped up in 2015 when the Philadelphia rapper accused his “R.I.C.O.” collaborator of using ghostwriters.

While the alleged ghostwriter was revealed to be Quentin Miller, the 6 God was widely deemed to have won the beef after the success of his scathing diss song “Back to Back.”
Now, with Drake suing Universal Music Group for defamation over Kendrick’s “Not Like Us,” Meek was asked for his thoughts on his one-time enemy controversially turning a rap beef into a legal battle.

“I WONDER HOW @MeekMill FEEL BOUT DRAKE SUING…….CAUSE N-GGAS SAID THIS N THAT BOUT HIM…… DRAKE WENT ALL OUT ON MEEK,” battle rapper Arsonal Da Rebel wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday (January 16).
Though he didn’t address the UMG lawsuit directly, Meek replied by providing some insight into the aftermath of his feud with Drake and how his label at the time tried to stop him from releasing new music.

“Label told me don’t drop nothing .. I went against that and dropped dc4 mixxtape ‘Shari Bryant backed me herself’ 90k first week to heat up,” he wrote.
“I couldn’t make any playlist either that had me confused a lil losing confidence but I knew 80% was campaign! Influence for the net only.”

He added: “It all comes down to who know who …once I started owning companies I wanted to be in convo with the high level shakers and owners if I made more than 100m on a label because not the only business I got and I deal with the top people at companies to get top results!
“I’ma champ I loss many things I learn from them and move on! 2025 my team right now ima make a 100m off rap because I was in a system so long ima break that jawn I time for the ‘mime.'”

Meek Mill was previously dragged into Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s beef last year when Akademiks accused him of being the catalyst for the historic battle.
The media personality argued that Meek should have and could have taken Drizzy out during their aforementioned feud in 2015 due to Meek’s pedigree as seasoned battle rapper.
“So now it’s given Drake the level of confidence to say, ‘Yo, I’ve defeated the battlers of the battlers. These guys really don’t wanna see me,'” he said while appearing on the Full Send podcast.
“And now we realize Meek Mill — as 50 Cent said — is a special type of stupid. Like literally, anybody could have defeated him. I defeated him on Twitter [and] he just blocked me.”

Ak continued tearing apart the Dream Chasers rapper by saying: “The guy is so dumb. He’s one of the few people that you’re like, maybe we gave Drake too much credit for beating this guy.
“Meek has a remedial, slower person’s brain. If you put an actual able-bodied brain in there, he might have beaten Drake.”
