Meek Mill Pledges $50K to Flint Water Crisis, Challenges 50 Cent to Match Him

Meek Mill said he would donate $50,000 to help the people of Flint, Michigan, following news of a municipal change that rendered the city's tap water is toxic. He challenged his enemy, 50 Cent, to match him.

Meek Mill got the idea after a tweet that accused the rappers of spending too much time on pointless feuds.

According to XXL, Mill tweeted back, "I got 50k to donate to waters ... Let's see if we can have @50cent match me! I'm pretty sure "flint" supported us! Serious post contact .... Roc nation will purchase for me and ship! Not even just him all entertainers! I ain't got the tine posting memes and s**t... "Way too trill for that" @dallaslifestyle it's my dawg hometown too! #FORMLKDAY."

The challenge is the latest salvo in a battle that has been brewing for days between the two rappers.

Meek Mill taunted 50 about his most recent mixtape, 4/4. Among other things, the Philadelphia rapper taunted 50 for being referred to as gay by ex-girlfriend Vivica A. Fox. Fiddy responded with a scatological Instagram post suggesting Mill get girlfriend Nicki Minaj pregnant so he can receive child support after their "inevitable" divorce. Naturally, things only went south from there.

While most hip-hop feuds fizzle or escalate to a ridiculous level, the Meek Mill/50 Cent beef has the potential to benefit a community in dire need of help. If 50 matches or even tops Mill's contribution in the spirit of competition, the residents of Flint will be the winners.
