what diss songs is he known for?
So you don't have an answer, but I was sort of wrong too because people outside the city probably knew him as a dvd rapper (freestyles). But Meek being known as this great battle rapper is a myth. There is a reason why he asked for so much money to battle.

I never said he had a battle he was known for though so no i dont have an answer for that. Like i said, it's cause you're from Philly.

Let's be honest, most Meek fans have made 2 mistakes, they mistook Meek for being a skilled rapper, and to some extent ninjas underestimated Drake, he may be king of the simps, but push comes to shove, he responded twice, the 1st response was meh, and was the equivalent of a weak jab almost like a punch a boxer takes just to take an opponents temperature and judge reach, but the second diss was a straight forward after the jab that landed on Meeks eye, it's not the strongest punch but Meek was caught off guard and got cut right above the eye. Meek can respond, but fact of the matter is the blood is dripping into his eye right now and he has no real room for error.

Watch his battles. They aren't that good, he chokes alot, he's not that clever, etc.
Yeah he battled but he was never all that good at it. And he's not close to Drake as a writer either. Unless he has some secrets, he's in a bad spot.
Yeah drakes writers are better. Meek has no chance.

So how could be known as a battle rapper without having a battle that he's known for?

That's why I said if he really doesn't respond there's something else or someone else involved.

Meek came up in that era where Philly was churning out skilled battle rappers by the dozens, Reed dollaz, chic raw, Cyssero, joey jihad, hollowman etc; so I'm really not getting where this "there's no way he can come back from this" shyt is coming from.

Dude was nasty (pause)

Book bag, war paint, vest and some ammo:ehh:
K over the shoulder two berettas I'm rambo:damn::damn::banderas:


Out of all the nikkas that could have made it big out of philly it had to be meek mill:scust:
I can't get through 10 seconds of a meek verse, nikka sounds legitimately retarded with all that yelling.

Because all philly battle rappers names sound the same. Meek, Mook, Reed, i never saw a meek mill battle and when i first heard of dude i just safely assumed he was a battle rapper.

Freestyling is very different from writing a battle track, it's a different element, to write any song the time can vary, I have a friend who took 16 hours to write 2 verses recently. Some people bang them out in 20 mins, I don't know what Meek does but he is an active individual, he probably has other obligations so to write him off after a day or 2 seems odd...
he has plenty of time to type on twitter..
