Rick Ross says he squashed the Meek/Wale beef

[wizworld]

I like meek as an artist.

I don't dislike dude. But it exposes an element of behavior that growing up hard exaggerates.

Fact is, when you grow up in a war zone, it changes your ability to move around people who didn't. And Meek hasn't learned how to do this.

Remember when dude had to take etiquette classes? People laughed, but maybe that was one of the best things that should have happened to him. Dude is really in need of some shaping that will allow him to integrate into society instead of trying become his own worst enemy.

I totally feel that, especially the part that I bolded, due to my upbringing. I wasn't a "street dude", but I grew up in crack era Harlem... I had to unlearn a lot of habits when I made a bunch of friends in college who weren't from that background. Then entering the workforce was culture shock again, because now I had to become fake cool with a bunch of people that I have little to nothing in common with.

Like I said in my previous post, part of me feels like Meek has never been completely comfortable around Wale, simply because of how Wale presents himself.

You will see way more instances of the streets being used as a badge of honor and proof of authenticity. Is was the main thing being used in Meeks defense against Drake. I don't see people going at street dudes in total as much as they are going at Meek. Some folks do act like being from the streets precludes you from being soft or weak though. "Fatherless" is just a silly and misguided thing that people say on here.

People change the definition of soft to fit their hate of black folks. Meek is a self made man. Who used an AA artform to rise is family out of poverty. I think it's safe to use that as a badge of honor. Considering our history in this country but I'll let the racist and uncle toms cook then

Why do y'all dislike people from the streets so much? Serious question cause you guys sound like you have a grudge with black folks who grew up poor. Just reading comments I can quote endless posts where posters instead if saying "Meek is a bytch for that". They say something like. " Meek is a bytch for that and street dudes are emotional and fakkits and that they are fatherless and poor and to be disliked.".

Because they are suburbanites who want to supplant the culture from it's roots.

These marshmallows think Meek is erratic & emotional, Imagine if Tupac was around today?

White folks told them tupac was the goat so they wouldn't dare do that. They make it seem like we don't have videos of Meek rapping on street corners from 10+ years ago. nikkas have the nerve to say he ain't hip hop

We see the hate cause he with Nicki and he really started from 0$ to millions off his own talent and circumstances. Only confirmed non industry plant you can find for real. Only nikka that can't be calls fake.

At this point, it doesn't really even benefit Wale to be on MMG IMO. It definitely helped him after the Interscope fiasco but at this point it doesn't even seem like he's there..its not as tight as it was in the beginning for him despite Meek and Ross still seeming to be close.

He clearly used them to jumpstart his dying career. I wouldn't be surprised if he's off the label after this next album. They really can't do anything more for him and the MMG label has lost it's luster.

Do you only have a problem with people insulting black men like this when it's poor black me because I never see you jumping in like this when they're insulting middle class or fatherless middle class or gay black men?

This makes no sense. Ross signed Meek and Wale at his peak not theirs, wale had just gotten dropped and Meek was local.


And if Ross needed his career jump started why would wale and meek sign a deal with a guy who needs a jump start
