Meek Mill is standing up for Chris Brown in the R&B singer’s online spat with Ruffles. Brown called out the PepsiCo-owned potato chip brand for allegedly blocking him from participating in the NBA Celebrity All-Star Game.
On Sunday (February 18), Meek jumped on Twitter (X) to show support for his “All Eyes On You” collaborator. The Dream Chasers co-founder co-signed the James Lindsay-founded Rap Snacks company.
“That’s why it’s important we support Rap Snacks… I live @RapSnacksNow over Ruffles, black-owned and taste better!!!!!!” the 36-year-old Philadelphia native tweeted. The Rap Snacks Twitter (X) account responded with, “We are the CULTURE @MeekMill… Thank you for the support fam.”

In response to Chris Brown’s allegations, a February 17-dated statement from Ruffles read, “Ruffles sponsored last night’s NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, however Ruffles did not have any involvement in, nor visibility to, any player decisions or celebrity invite discussions.”
Brown fired back, “@RUFFLES I guess y’all tryna save face now! STAND ON BUSINESS. Don’t try to make it look like I’m trippin. YOU AND THE NBA representatives know exactly what y’all are doin!”
Numerous artists have had their own flavor of Rap Snacks products. The faces of Meek Mill, Snoop Dogg, Migos, Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Boosie Badazz, Rick Ross, Lil Durk, Lil Baby and other acts graced the front of chip, popcorn and cheese puff bags.
