JAY-Z wasn’t the only rapper to show his support for Meek Mill this week after it was announced that a Philadelphia judge was sending the Wins & Losses rapper back to prison for two to four years for violating his probation.
Though many fans were quick to clown Meek for his bad fortune, plenty of rappers, athletes and other Hip Hop personalities sent messages of encouragement and solidarity via social media.
T.I. shared an old photo of himself and Meek with the caption, “Was wit u then & WE STILL WIT U NOW!!! This too shall pass. You got this!!! God places the heaviest loads on the strongest backs. We got real love for u out here KING.”
Other artists who spoke up included A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, YG, Snoop Dogg and Nipsey Hussle, who wrote, “To be yung Blac and successful YOU ENEMY NUMBER 1.”
Check out some of the reactions below.
They gave him a chance. Then they gave him another chance on the last chance. He earned it. They would do the same to my white ass.
Well you have no money, so you wouldn’t of had a second chance.
What a delusional community of people, bringing god into this conversation for crimes HE committed smh. And the “free Meek” shit is hilarious, he was free until his dumbass went and go into trouble again. But let’s blame skin color….
You must be White or confused. White people always try to judge Black people twice as hard for crimes they have committed. Yet when their own people commit crimes they overlook it or try to give them light criticism. We don’t have to blame skin color. The justice system speaks for itself. Blacks receive higher sentences when compared to, White people for the same crimes.
Specially coming from Kevin Hart. Probably wasnt his fault either that he cheated on his pregnant wife. It was god who put that strong battle on his back cuz he is such a loyal soldier for god. The biggest hypocrites drag god into their failures
are they (rappers) serious. i know they have the stigma of fuxx the law. But meek has been asking for this since 2009. they have given him chance after chance.
Dude, you stop trying to rationalize wrong. The justice system is fucked up. All wrongdoing is a form of theft.
yes the justice system is fucked up. BUT not in meeks case. they have gave this man NUMEROUS chances, and he fucked it up. dude has failed EVERY drug test while on probation, caught with a pistol, wreckless driving, and fighting at an airport. GTFOH he asked for those 2-4 years. but since u care about him soo much lets see how many cents you put on his books
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time
These Twitter comments are embarrassing – if anything they should be praising the system for giving meek chance after chance – that NEVER happens – obviously the system is not in a hip hop artists favour but it’s a game that needs to be played – meek needs to sit with the wise men and discuss ACCOUNTABILITY – how come puff never ran into this? Jay z? Birdman??? These are rich businessmen who realize the game is to be played and played to “win” – this is a huge loss that was very avoidable
Do they serve Ls at prison’s cafeteria? He has a big appetite for that!
Let me put it down*…im a mixed man currently on probation*prosecution wanted jail time for me and judge saw otherwise*…Yes the system is jacked up for real*they let pedos off on light sentences & cops get away with murder*Literally but take a sec?….meek failed multiple drug tests and was arrested twice this year*do I wish jail on him*Hell No*…tht place is for the scum of the earth*but if tht was any ordinary Joe our asses would of been locked up*he had multiple chances cuz he’s rich & famous*a luxury we don’t have*I’m a judging*Nah*…just tht truth*
When you read the back story you realize that the system and definitely in this case the judges etc have a biased view and are applying personal feelings for whatever reason. You have murderers and rapists who don’t have 5-10 year probations, but somehow he had this smh…not saying he is perfect, but probation is sometime used unrealistically. I do something at 17,18 and you say stay out of any type of trouble (this includes drinking and speeding tickets In a lot of states) for a decade sdmh Now somebody fact check the percentage of 20 year olds who go through their 20’s without any “trouble” Is this a state of PA thing? Cause I know guys who had assault charges etc and pissed in a cup for a year and are done so.
Cuz he pled guilty and he’s serving his sentence still fool.
Hey dumbass…people say free so and so as an expression. Not cause they think it will suddenly magically free the person…and Bobby was to young to realize once you step over to the entertainment world you leave that street shit in the streets and you rap about your life growing up in that…His associates/friends were doing all kinds of crazy shit and NYPD hit them with a conspiracy charge. Basically they nailed him as guilty by association. He took a plea for 7 joint tho.
Using the “Free so and so” phrase is the biggest disgrace ever. This sh*t comes from People like Nelson Mandela, a Civil Rights Activist who was imprisoned as a innocent man for Years. Using the phrase for sc*m street rats that actually comitted crime is a slap into the face of every honorable black man and humanity in general.
Welcome to Hip Hop in 2017 where NO ONE wants to be accountable for their OWN actions.
The Drake-Curse real.
HA HA HAAAA
You what got coming,MMeek been fucking up probation since he started it,ffuck ther people, BLM bullshit here.
The internet is basically ruining everything. Nothing is “cool” anymore… hip hop ain’t cool, tattoos ain’t cool, Air Jordans ain’t cool, etc. Everybody has access to everything now. Nobody has an edge so to speak. Hip hop ain’t what it used to be. It’s all watered down noise now… artists is only looking to cash in and could care less about the culture. In the past 10 years it seems everybody and they grandmother has a tattoo now, which has become a fashion statement… a fashion accessory. You got these clowns nowadays rocking Jordans with skinny jeans. Too many wannabes and copycats looking stuff up on the internet trying real hard to be cool. This cyber generation can eat a dick.
