Much to Rick Ross‘ delight—and everyone else who’s been eagerly awaiting his long-delayed album Dreams Worth More Than Money—Meek Mill has finally been released from jail.
The rapper, who’s been incarcerated since being sentenced for a parole violation on July 11, will be coming home just in time for the holidays, originally according to tweets from Fox 29 reporters.
The news has since been confirmed via a post to rapper Trav’s Instagram page, which showed the rapper out of jail.
Meek Mill was first expected to be released back in August, after he had served a month, when his team appealed and requested early parole, but that action was rejected by the presiding judge.
Mill’s legal troubles stem from a 2009 arrest on drug and weapons charges. His probation violation in question was a photo posted to his Instagram where he was posing with a gun. To make matters worse, Mill reportedly tested positive for drugs, scheduled shows out of town without permission, and didn’t keep an open line of communication with his parole officer.
Rick Ross also hinted at Meek Mill’s release before it happened, simply tweeting the rapper’s album title on Tuesday. No word on when Meek Mill’s Dreams Worth More Than Money will be released, and if being freed from jail will speed up that process.
