It seems like Meek Mill has recovered from his recent beef with Drake enough to step into the ring again: his new song seems to return fire in Drake’s direction, months after their clash, but it also takes aim at 50 Cent.
“Gave ‘Em Hope,” released on Soundcloud yesterday (hear it here), starts out with a veiled diss to Meek, saying “Let them n—-s have the GRAMMYS, we got the streets/We rich already and my chick the baddest,” a possible reference to the fact that Drake’s diss track aimed at Meek Mill, “Back to Back,” was nominated for a GRAMMY. The chick, of course, is Nicki Minaj.
But the real target of this song seems to be 50 Cent. 50, of course, has long had a beef with Rick Ross, the head of the Maybach Music Group which Meek is signed to; until now, Meek had remained relatively silent regarding 50 Cent.
“You popping s— on your Instagram,” Mill raps, in reference to 50’s frequent presence on the social media platform. “S— that you’re popping ain’t adding up/S— that you’re popping ain’t making sense,” he says. And then, practically referring to 50 Cent by name, he continues, “I got fifty reasons say you’re taking d—/And it’s fifty reasons I should kill, n—-/But, for real, n—-, I been taking trips with my Philly n—-s/Got the richest chick, she’s from your hood,” a reference to Nicki Minaj. He also referenced 50’s alleged money problems later in the song.
50 Cent, who always seems to enjoy a good battle, was quick to respond on Instagram. First with an image of a poop emoji with Meek’s face on it, where he said, “Hey s— head, your career is over already.you better focus on getting Nikki pregnant so you can at least get child support girl.”
Then, with a crudely animated video showing Meek rapping “Gave ‘Em Hope” and then 50 slugging him, 50 says, “Hip Hop’s first retarded MC. This nut make philly look bad.”
And then, a photo of Meek, doctored to look like he’s crying. “But your honor, I’m not a gangsta, I’m just retarded. Look I went at DRAKE, FUTURE, and 50cent.”
And yet another post, with Meek doctored to look like a very effeminate man. Then, an image saying “When you’ve lost every rap beef you’ve ever been in,” with Mill surrounded by images of other rappers including Drake and 50. And most recently, another crudely animated video which insinuates that Mill is out of his league beefing with 50 and Drake.
Mill lashed out more on Instagram with a photo of himself holding a stack of money, saying, among other things, that people in Queens say 50 is a “rat”; that Rick Ross “finished” him, ending his career in their beef; that all the artists that “came up under” him (a likely reference to his G Unit artists) are broke; that his son hates him; that 50 is always hating on “go getters” like Jay Z and P Diddy; that he’s going broke and is “miserable, and don’t really have friends”; and finally says that Effen Vodka, which 50 endorses, tastes like urine. And then, finally, a photo of himself with 50. The caption? “Say less…. Just watch these characters!” Almost as if he’s promoting more back-and-forth between the two MCs in the coming days.
