Meek Mill is officially the punching bag of hip-hop—which is a particularly bad gig, even for a punching bag.
In the summer of 2015, the “hard” Philly rapper was rap-pummeled by a half-Jewish Canadian former fake paraplegic. After Meek Mill mistook Twitter for the proper medium through which to accuse Drake of using ghostwriters, the Toronto native fired off two diss tracks. Meek Mill was promptly abandoned by the entire rap community, including his superstar girlfriend, Nicki Minaj, who couldn’t even be bothered to salvage a few verses from her trash folder to help her boo piece together a clap back.
Much like Britney Spears trying to come back at Beyoncé’s VMAs, or Odell Beckham Jr. attempting to avoid Lena Dunham, Meek just can’t seem to catch a break. Back in January, 50 Cent and Meek Mill, two men who often brag about their experiences getting caught in real gunfire, “Traded shots and memes online.” For a gangster rapper, Meek Mill has been unmanned more than once by a well-timed meme.
This week, The Game jumped into the virtual fray. Newly viral videos from a Miami club gig show the Compton-born rapper challenging Meek to some good old-fashioned fisticuffs. “I just wanna beat that n*gga ass for a good time,” he says. “When you see me n*gga, square up. It don’t gotta be about no guns, n*gga. Fuck Meek Mill.” While rappers have been known to beef from time to time, it’s rare to see an artist threaten someone with physical harm for no real reason.
Following their feud, The Game and 50 Cent reportedly extended their olive branches at a strip club. In a post-strip club reconciliation interview, 50 Centrevealed, “I always said I didn’t understand where [the feud] came from.” It’s funny to imagine The Game waking up every morning, cranky and a little bit peckish, and randomly selecting a new nemesis from a stack of bedside mixtapes. Then again, this scenario is probably less hilarious to Meek Mill, who has inexplicably found himself on the wrong side of The Game’s ire.
