Last year rapper Meek Mill parted ways with his management company Roc Nation, explaining to his fans that he would now be handling all his own business affairs [click here if you missed that].
Looks like Meek bit off more than he could chew...
Over the weekend Meek lashed out accusing "business people" of treating him like he's slow and threatens to make a martyr of himself to change the rap music game.

Only two ways out for the tired, they OD or them charges come back up. Has there ever been any good news about this dude. He just seems like he was born miserable and fighting all his life.
If they got lawyers on their side you get one on your side. Plus he shouldn't hv been so hot headed and left his label. Making threats doesn't do him any good.
Meek ain't NEVA had shine. Nothing shiny about him at all. Always been a dust ball. He has GOT to be a related to Pigpen... the dusty dust-ball boy in the Charlie Brown Peanuts cartoons.
@8:03am - The only time this dude seemed like he was ok was when he was Nicki I thought he may have had some potential then I wonder what Nicki saw in him though
This dude is not respected and he is coming to the realization that its been going on for a while when the veil is lifted its traumatic. He has always been a street kid who lost his familial support system early and was viewed as a vagrant and when he discovered he had a talent that could help him get by he did his best to make a way for himself he was never respected by the street people but viewed as a street kid this reputation followed him as he ascended threw the music community and because of this reputation he was pencil whipped on several levels because of posed no threat, other artist associated with him to create a look and a buzz and a social media and internet storyline he signed a deal with another artist that was signed to a deal himself never the best situation for an artist ask Beanie Siegel not only is the money wacked up a hundred different ways before you even get a taste but you are putting the progress of your career in the hands of a person who sees you as competition once that is figured out the majors show up and do what they do divide and conquer and give you just enough of a better deal that you are supposed to see more than you did in your last situation but never what you truly deserve and then after its inked the machine that eats artist alive and squeezes all of the life and productivity out of them begins its course and no matter what you signed you will get what they give you little or nothing and its all legal and every violation is bury in the paperwork usually in a language you can't decipher, why its always best to take what you make and no matter how little and divert it into wealth building assets no music company is going to make you rich famous maybe but the only ones who will get rich are those that promise to make you rich and the only will be happy with the contractual agreement will be those that present it to the artist when it all comes to light they either have you locked in and sewed up or your used up and past your best years.

He needs to first finish 7th grade. That grammar is suboptimal. And he wonders why he doesn't get taken seriously? Not to mention he's a wack rapper.
Drake stole Meek’s shine.
Jail Birds rarely get respect for doing stupid stuff.
He probably can’t get a lawyer or support team bc his funds are slipping away and he’s realizing it now.
Where's his billionaire friend Kraft?
Love and Hip Hop is hiring lol
He needs better lawyers and quit tripping
so all that bunny hopping for billionaires and humiliation tactics at the all yt party did not help you? SHOCKER

This needs to be said out loud. Meek is an idiot who forgot who he was when the money rolled in. So now, he will be made an example of.
When the checks stop coming. Next!!!
What, all that selling out and azz didn’t work out for him??? Who would’ve imagined
Get right with the Almighty Meek cause that’s where the true power is. You’ve been worshiping and admiring them instead of the true Higher Power.
