Meek Mill kickstarted his fan-favorite Flamerz series in 2008, helping the rapper gain a buzz in his hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The last installment arrived in March 2010 and featured appearances from Black Thought, Freeway, Gillie Da Kid and more.
While further details remain scarce, Flamerz 5 will serve as the follow-up to Meek’s fifth studio album, Expensive Pain, which dropped in October 2021 and contained the bonus track “Flamerz Flow.”
The mixtape announcement comes shortly after Meek Mill revealed plans for a special homecoming concert in Philly to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his debut album Dreams and Nightmares.
The MMG rapper will be joined by a cast of special guests at the Wells Fargo Center on November 26. Fans interested in the event can purchase tickets here.
As far as new music goes, Meek Mill shared a preview of a freestyle over Ice Spice’s viral hit “Munch (Feelin’ U)” on social media last month.
Before that, Meek shared his first new track of 2022 in September in the form of “Early Mornings,” and he also teased a new collaboration with Lil Uzi Vert. He also announced he would be releasing 10 new mixtapes starting that month, but nothing emerged.
