The recent controversy involving Diddy has cast a shadow over Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill, complicating his public image. Allegations of his connections to the music mogul have led to widespread criticism, turning him into an easy target for backlash. These days, whenever Meek voices his opinions, they’re often met with skepticism and ridicule. It’s been a challenging period for the “Going Bad” artist—ironically, the same could be said for his collaborator on that track, Drake.

Drake is currently embroiled in legal battles surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s hit song and video, Not Like Us. The Toronto rapper is allegedly attempting to prove that the song’s reported success is inflated. Over the past day, Drake has taken significant legal steps to argue that the record’s popularity has been bolstered by deceptive practices.
Drake Takes Legal Action

Drake’s legal actions are raising eyebrows. He’s suing Universal Music Group (UMG)—his own label—and Spotify, accusing them of employing tactics like payola and bots to artificially inflate Not Like Us’s streaming numbers. Adding to the drama, Drake has also filed a defamation lawsuit against UMG, claiming the label could have prevented the release of the song, which he alleges falsely insinuates that he is a sex offender.

Meek Mill Calls Out the Double Standards

Since news of Drake‘s lawsuits broke, public reactions have been overwhelmingly negative. Hip-hop fans, commentators, and even sports media have criticized the rapper, suggesting he should have let the issue rest, especially given the history of diss tracks between him and Kendrick Lamar.

Meek Mill appears to share this sentiment—but he’s not stopping there.

In a cryptic tweet, Meek wrote, “But meek be tripping yeah Ard!” While the tweet is open to interpretation, it seems to suggest he finds Drake’s recent legal maneuvers absurd. While Meek rarely directly calls out individuals, the timing of his post aligns closely with Drake’s actions, making it likely a direct response.

Drake filed both lawsuits on Monday, with the defamation claim coming later in the day. Whether or not Meek’s tweet was meant as a jab at his former collaborator, it highlights the ongoing tension in hip-hop circles regarding Drake’s controversial decisions. Some believe the tweet is Meek Mill speaking about his own situation with record companies he thinks are against him.

Meek is talking about how UMG used there power to harm Drakes reputation. Meek has said countless times that this machine is after him too. Just wanted to translate the tweet for ya thinking on surface level

The beef between Drake and Meek Mill is one of the most famous feuds in modern hip-hop, blending diss tracks, social media drama, and industry politics.

The feud began in July 2015 when Meek Mill accused Drake of using ghostwriters, claiming that the Toronto rapper didn’t write his verse on their collaboration R.I.C.O., a track from Meek’s album Dreams Worth More Than Money.

• Meek tweeted: “Stop comparing drake to me too… He don’t write his own raps! That’s why he ain’t tweet my album because we found out!”
