Chicago’s Lil Durk recently talked about his relationship with Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill and dished on seeing him earlier this month.
Durk stressed the toll Meek’s 90-day house arrest has had on him and the rapper’s intent to get back to working.
“He’s good. He’s turnt up, ready to get off house arrest. [We talked about] how he made a mistake and how he don’t want me to follow his mistake. House arrest killing him; they have him doing community service but he likes it ’cause he’s helping his community. He’s just ready to get back to work, get back to the studio.” (XXL Mag)
Earlier this month, Durk and rapper Young Thug checked on Meek during his house arrest.

Despite the legal woe, Meek has been keeping busy as of late putting out new music like his “All The Way Up” freestyle.
On the fiery freestyle, Mill throws some shade at Drake, returning to his original accusation that claims the Toronto rapper doesn’t always write his own lyrics. “This is hip-hop / You ain’t write it, don’t record it / I don’t know how they gettin’ down ‘cross the border,” he spits. He also raps, “Views from the projects / N*gga I’m the prospect.” (Rolling Stone)

Recently, Meek found a loophole in his ability to release new music during the house arrest.
Sources connected to the case tell us Meek got an order of clarification 2 weeks after his sentencing. The judge had said he could not record ANY music during his 90 days of house arrest, but then spelled it out in more detail. We’re told the rule is Meek can release music in order to “protect his brand,” but it has to be on FREE platforms like SoundCloud and YouTube. This explains why he dropped that remix of Drake’s “Summer Sixteen” a few days ago. It was totally legal … just ill-advised. (TMZ)
