Meek Mill might have been denied parole two weeks ago, but he's still finding ways to drop new music.
Serving a three to six month sentence after violating his probation in July, Mill has now released four new songs in the span of three days. "I Like It" (featuring Mac Miller) is the most recent addition to the public sphere, with Mill not sounding much like a changed man:
Cause I'm ballin', I'm talking Spaldin'
Rollie on my wrist, flooded like New Orleans
A n---a buzzin' now, I'm talking hornets
Cause I murder all my enemies, stretch my opponents
Microphone killer, tell 'em Mac Miller
Zombies in my neighborhood, s-t is like Thriller
Always repping his home state, Miller holds down the second half of the song...
Comin' through the city, up in Philly, out with Meek
Make a hunnit every week so now I'm stuntin' like a Sheikh
And we this s--t for PA, we do this s--t for PA
How I use to get it dirty, now my money come the clean way
...and tosses in an "F-you" to crotchety journalists:
Yeah, I'm still scruffy, gettin' money
Got all these writers mad at me cause they daughters wanna f-k me
Meek Mill has been trying for weeks to get his sentence reduced, but keeps running into issues with his assigned judge.
His lawyer says the rapper had not committed any new offenses while on probation and was not given a hearing to state his defense, but this particular judge used Mill's wayward social media behavior as grounds for violation.
As previously reported, the rapper's parent label, Atlantic Records, issued a letter to the court stating that his jail time is detrimental to his upcoming album release.
"If the artist is unable to promote his album release, thousands of fans will be disappointed and potentially turn their interest to other artists which could prove devastating to this artist's career and damaging to those who have worked and hoped to continue working with him over the course of that career," the letter said.
Dreams Worth More Than Money is slated for a Sept. 9 release, but Meek won't see daylight until at least Oct. 11 under his current sentence.
