Young Money’s Drake and Lil Wayne performed Meek’s Dreams & Nightmares “Intro” track in Philadelphia last month.

At the Philly stop on their Drake vs. Lil’ Wayne tour, the two Young Moneycohorts paid tribute to hometown rap hero Meek Mill, who is currently serving time for a probation violation. During their nod to the Dreamchasers MC, they played the intro from his Dreams and Nightmares mixtape, sending the crowd into a frenzy. (VIBE)

Despite in-person support from DJ Khaled and his crew, Meek could not escape the penal system on August 18.

After a 90-minute hearing in a packed courtroom that included DJ Khaled and members of Meek’s DreamChasers, Maybach Music Group and Atlantic Records teams, the judge shot down the appeal — which could have set the rapper free as early as today. In addition, the judge demanded that Mill, born Robert Williams, completes anger management and parenting classes, as well as seek drug and alcohol treatment before he is let out. If the “Ima Boss” MC doesn’t complete the three programs, the judge said he will have to do the entire six months of his sentence. (MTV)
