Maybach Music Group’s Meek Mill has shown fans more of his personal side by penning a heartfelt letter about his son this week.
Ahead of Father’s Day, Meek dished on how much he loves his firstborn in a new Time magazine feature.
“Before I leave, I always explain to him that everything I do, I do for him. All the shows, all the nights in the studio, I do with my son in mind. It doesn’t make it any easier, but I’m blessed to be in the financial situation that I’m in. I’m grateful I don’t have to think twice about whether there is going to be food on his table. My son doesn’t have to worry about that the way that I did—nor does the rest of my family. I’m not just a father to my son, but a provider to my whole family. I provide for them not because I have to, but because I want to. They have all been there for me through my highs and lows. They’ve always made sure I was taken care of, and now it’s my turn to take care of them.” (Time)
Mill also talked about the struggles of growing up without a strong male figure in his life.
“I still miss my dad, and I always will. Growing up without a father made me realize just how special time is with my son and how much of an impact I can have on his life. There are so many single mothers out there struggling to fill both roles, raising their families all by themselves. They don’t get the credit they deserve. There’s not enough ways to really say thank you, but we celebrate them, too, for all they do. To all my family and friends who are celebrating Father’s Day with their children, we salute you for being role models for all the young fathers in our community.” (Time)
Meek and his girlfriend Nicki Minaj performed at this month’s Hot 97 Summer Jam concert in New Jersey.

Young Brother, Take care of your Family by doing work that ALLAH approves of, not in aiding Satan and his Devils, in spreading Mischief and Evil! Not money, nor Jewelry, is worth Burning for Eternity in the Here-After!
That’s dope. I respect that!
Agreed.
