(AllHipHop Rumors) Meek Mill endures. The Philly rapper has been doing pretty well recently. He’s been ducking beef, doing social justice work and. recording new music. He’s also been touring, which has lead to a dicey situation at UMass (University of Massachusetts Amherst). The social media network was ablaze stating that Meek came on campus and just left before taking to the stage.
This is a statement by the school:
“More than 1,500 students attended the concert, where opening act, Lil TJay performed. Headline artist Meek Mill arrived at the Mullins Center, but decided not to perform. An announcement was made to students at 1:30 p.m. and the crowd left in an orderly manner.
Hephner LaBanc noted, “Although the concert did not go as planned, students were very cooperative. We are equally disappointed in Meek Mill’s decision not to perform. Refunds will be made available to ticketholders in the near future.”
Here is what the fans had to say:
Lost respect for @MeekMill– today he pulled up to UMass for a concert students were looking forward to (especially students of color that came to see him), the crowd wasn’t as large as he wanted it to be so he left and didn’t perform. Unprofessional and selfish.

What’s crazy is he is taking zero ownership. He been tweeting all day having a great time while students were waiting since 9am for him. Nope. Respect out the window.

UPDATE:
Meek Mill got to UMass and left.There will be no Meek Mill at the @MullinsCenter or for #MullinsLive
At least tickets were only $10-15 but it remains to be seen if refunds will be given out.

I don’t know what to say and Meekie ain’t saying nothing…yet. Hopefully, he goes back and makes up for it. Colleges don’t welch on their monies and they have big budgets! You think Meek didn’t wanna rock, because it wasn’t like Summer Jam or something? I wouldn’t care about the crowd if I was getting paid. Something ain’t right!
