Philadelphia Common Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley sentenced Meek Mill to between two and four years in prison for probation violations Monday (November 6), ignoring prosecutors who recommended to keep him free — and it could all be over a non-existent Boyz II Men remake of “On Bended Knee.”
According to TMZ, the 30-year-old Dreamchasers boss and attorney Joe Tacopina met with the judge in her chambers last year, where she requested Meek remake the 1994 R&B hit and shout her out. Meek reportedly took it as a joke and laughed it off, while his attorney recalls the judge asserting that she was serious and allegedly left it off at, “Okay, suit yourself.”
“I gave you break after break, and you basically just thumbed your nose at this court,” the judge told Meek during his sentencing. He will be eligible for state parole supervision after two years.
Judge Brinkley and Meek are apparently from the same part of Philadelphia and share mutual acquaintances. His lawyer believes his failure to remake the track contributed to the harsh sentencing and he vows to appeal.
On Monday evening (November 6) JAY-Z spoke out against Meek’s “unjust” sentencing, penning a note on Facebook calling out the judge. A few other notables in Hip Hop, such as Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg, T.I. and Nipsey Hussle have taken to social media to show the Philly musician support.
He is paying this bozo attorney to come up with this shit? What a load of nonsense. Meek is just a good guy popping wheelies and he’s only in jail because he wouldn’t remake a Boys II Men song. Meek doesn’t do anything wrong at all. Everybody is out to get him. Seems legit.
Shut up hoe how u know it ain’t true???
Salty little bitch
You seem borderline rememedial so I’m not even going to retort that
Hahahahahaha
Free Meek – fuck that racist judge.
The judge is black you dipshit.
Lol
How about Meek obey the law and not violate his probation??? Maybe that would have kept him out of jail! Folks get their probation violated everyday, just cause he got money don’t make him any better!
this is the same stupid ass judge that represented arod when he tried to sue major leauge baseball lmfao. the guy went on live tv and bashed david ortiz for failing the same drug test arod did…… when arod and ortiz were friends lol.
stupid ass lawer**
“I gave you break after break, and you
basically just thumbed your nose at
this court,” the judge told Meek…….I SMELL OFFICER RICKY ALL OVER THIS….
i hate to lose him
Meek my guy prob had the 2nd best rap album of year behind Krit, but he doesn’t seem to have a good team of lawyers, no way a cat with that kind of money should be getting popped on parole and doing the type of time they trying to give him
He is an idiot. Yes way he’d get popped. On probation doing wheelies on the street. Taking back to cops. Dindu doesn’t work on judges buddy. Just the PC media and fucktard liberals. Any normal citizen would have gotten locked up sooner. Good riddance.
Well I have tbh if he was white would he have gotten all this time maybe maybe who knows but if meek wouldn’t have stayed out of trouble would he have been in that situation no… moral of the story keep your ass out of trouble you wouldn’t be faced with time
This is another classic example of Dinduisms. Jay Z stabbed someone’s and got away with it. T.I. Only did extremely minimal time for being a convicted felon in possession of, and trying to purchase fully automatic weapons and silencers. Any normal human being (not a wealthy entertainer) would have been thrown in jail a LONG time ago. Regardless of race. Not once did “Meek” deny being guilty of any of the probation violations or initial charges. HOW ARE TGESE PEOPLE EVEN COMPLAINING? Luckily it was a black judge who actually carried out THE LAW in this instance. Had it been any other race, you know the deal… he is guilty and belongs in jail. He was judged by a JUDGE. when you are ON PROBATION, don’t go doing wheelies on a non street legal motorcycle and then post it on Instagram maybe? Dumbass. He DINDUNUFFIN. Sure.
Don’t you have some post to make for stormfront. Go back to your cave. Tellin Whitemanlies
Lol Damn meek you should have shouted the judge bitch out…And wait she a female too? Yeah she a drake fan as well. She was taking him down either way
