Eventually Meek graduated from block rhymes to the Flamers mixtape series, which built enough buzz to get him signed with T.I. These videos of Meek with fuzzy braids aren’t recent discoveries, as some have been sitting on YouTube for nearly a decade. Back then, Meek Mill (or Millz) spit about the violence in his hometown - a subject he’s never stopped commenting on. In his teenage years, he freestyled on the streets, and those raps would be included on bootleg rap DVDs. Unlike many rappers whose earliest days can be scrubbed off the internet, or for previous generations left to unreleased cassettes and CD-Rs, Meek’s entire musical career has a digital trail. He kept to being a rapper that sought to highlight the struggles of his Philadelphia community even on the path to national fame. Rappers who sang and flirted with R&B were rap’s new royalty, but Meek stayed in his lane as a rapper - not just a rapper obsessed with the art of rapping (which his recent beef with Drake might imply). This is a stark contrast to the rap climate in which Meek has found himself for most of his career where it appeared that street rap was being pushed further toward the margins of the genre.
