Robert Rihmeek Williams (born May 6, 1987),[2] known professionally as Meek Mill, is an American rapper, songwriter, and activist.[3] Raised in Philadelphia, he embarked on his music career as a battle rapper, and later formed a short-lived rap group, The Bloodhoundz. In 2008, Atlanta-based rapper T.I. signed Meek Mill to his first record deal. In February 2011, after leaving Grand Hustle Records, Mill signed with Miami-based rapper Rick Ross’s Maybach Music Group (MMG). Mill’s debut album, Dreams and Nightmares, was released in 2012 under MMG and Warner Bros. Records. The album, preceded by the lead single “Amen” (featuring Drake), debuted at number two on the U.S. Billboard 200.

In October 2012, Mill announced the launch of his own label imprint, Dream Chasers Records, named after his mixtape series. Meek Mill often collaborates with fellow MMG label-mates; he is also known for his appearances on MMG’s Self Made compilation series, with his first two singles, “Tupac Back” and “Ima Boss”, being included on volume one. He released his second album, Dreams Worth More Than Money, in 2015 and his third album, Wins & Losses, in 2016. His fourth studio album, Championships, was released in November 2018 and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Its lead single, “Going Bad” (featuring Drake), peaked at number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.

In November 2017, he was sentenced to two to four years in prison for violating parole and served five months at the State Correctional Institution – Chester in Chester, Pennsylvania, before being released while his trial continues. In August 2019, a documentary series about his battle with the criminal justice system, Free Meek, was released on Amazon’s Prime Video. Mill served as executive producer on the series.[4]

Kicking Kaepernick’s ass to the curb. All you gotta do is kiss Jay-Z’s ass. He supposedly wants to buy a team one day.

I have not watched the NFL in 20 years.

I guess I have paused for a few seconds while channel surfing. From what I have heard, it is ten times worse now.

I don’t know. When the Denver Donkeys took a knee I changed the channel and have not watched a MFL game since.

Regardless of the fact that you are posting something ridiculous in its nothingness
Anyone giving the NFL the time of day or a second of channel surfing stp not to mention watching a game on tv or in the stadium is in fact complicit in disrespecting the us flag

That would be nice to know. And I dont want to open the article :)

All I know is there at least was better music and better behaved “singers” when my people ruled the pop world

Mafiosi are animals but at least they had some taste.

These guys got none.

I grew up in the midwest, and loved football, but I just can't be interested anymore. That's just me, and I respect other people who still want to watch. That said, I find it really sad that an American sport that was a mainstay of fall and winter weekends for many families has become too big for its own fans.

Still not watching the kneeling whiners.

“Kicking Kaepernick’s ass to the curb.”

They did not kick him to the curb, they wrote him a big check.
