The music industry has a long, deep-rooted history of artists feeling like they’ve been taken advantage of financially by major labels. Meek Mill is vowing to take a stand against the routinely unjust contracts and expose those who are offering “slave” deals.
On Thursday (December 19), Meek voiced his frustration via Twitter, writing, “What about major companies taking kids from the ghetto and got them signing they lives away for a lil bit of money? We taking control of that 2020 and exposing the people offering these slave deals! Ima get some lawyers to break down some of these deals y’all offering these kids.”

The co-founder of the Reform Alliance continued in another tweet, “I don’t trust people and they motives really nomore … everybody planning to make something off you with out you knowing!”

Meek isn’t alone on this. Last Saturday (December 14), Tory Lanez took shots at Interscope Records, threatening to expose them, too.
Of course, Meek is always willing to speak up on injustice or social issues. He recently addressed the armed robbery of the Milano Di Rouge store and defended Nipsey Hussle’s legend status, along with being a criminal justice reform advocate.
