Charlamagne Says Meek Mill Needed Jail To Calm Down, Sentencing Came At A Good Time

Charlamagne of The Breakfast Club on Power 105 is known for voicing his opinion and he recently spoke out on rapper Meek Mill and his current legal issues.

During an interview with VladTV, the radio host said Meek's jail sentence may possibly be for the rapper's benefit. He also criticized his parole officer for not allowing him to leave the city of Philadelphia.

"It's never a good time to get looked up, but I was thinking about this, right? Meek was going through it a little bit," Charlamagne said. "Watching him on Instagram. Watching him on Twitter. First of all, his P.O. and them gotta let him get out of Philly. I used to think he was just in Philly cause he was trying to keep it real. But they really won't allow him to live any other place...It is life or death for Meek in a city like Philadelphia cause he's the only person that's on as far as the rap game is concerned. He does stunt a lot. And I'm sure it's people out there that want to do him harm. Just because he's successful and they're not...I think it's criminal that his P.O. and them wouldn't let him move."

Towards the end of his interview, Charlamagne elaborated on his thought that jail may help the MMG rapper saying, "The reason I say this might have been a good time for Meek to get locked up-We don't know what could have happened to Meek in the streets. I saw Meek on Twitter threatening people...Him and Louie V Gutta was going back and forth. It seemed like things was building up for something bad to happen. God works in mysterious ways, man. I feel like God sat him down for a reason for a second."

Prior to his arrest, Meek came down on fellow MMG rapper Wale for not supporting his album via social media and sent out a series of tweets about toting guns.

Music Times recently reported that Meek Mill will remain in jail until October of this year.
