Meek Mill once again has social media reacting to one of his posts. On Wednesday (January 24), the Philadelphia-bred rapper insisted his career earnings topped nine figures, stirring up a conversation online.
“Play dumb to dumb people… and act smart around smart people!” Meek Mill tweeted. A Twitter (X) user quote-tweeted the rapper and added, “Don’t listen to this n#### [man facepalming emoji]. Be yourself and get a better circle so you won’t be around some dumb n####.”
In response, Meek wrote, “I made over [$100 million] in my life… I feed my community my family and change laws that send black and brown men to prison systematically… and I [have] been on a 10-year success rate of the 1% of black men… why should they listen to you lol.”

Meek Mill first broke out as a recording artist with the Rick Ross-assisted singles “Tupac Back” and “Ima Boss” in 2011. He went on to earn multiple platinum plaques for tracks such as “R.I.C.O.” and “Going Bad” featuring Drake.
The studio albums Dreams Worth More Than Money from 2015 and Championships from 2018 topped the Billboard 200 chart. Meek also made his way into the film industry as an actor in HBO Max’s Charm City Kings drama.
As a founding partner of REFORM Alliance, Meek Mill played a role in passing criminal justice reform laws in several states, including Michigan and California. Last December, the 36-year-old Hip-Hop star got emotional during a probation reform bill signing ceremony in Pennsylvania.
