Meek Mill’s antics on X (formerly Twitter) are a gold mine of unintentional comedy—and sometimes, just plain baffling. Many fans joke that if he stayed off social media, he’d be hailed as one of the greatest rappers of his generation. Unfortunately for Meek, he not only keeps logging on but has also turned his platform into a soapbox for addressing his ties to Diddy and the controversies surrounding him. Spoiler: it’s not helping.
Diddy Drama and Sushi Scandals
Meek Mill’s association with Diddy has placed him in some questionable narratives over the years—often as a peripheral figure or even a victim. Recently, things took a bizarre turn when the Daily Mail dug up allegations about Meek’s 27th birthday bash, hosted by Diddy at a rented Parisian property. According to the property manager, the party was a chaotic mess, featuring alcohol bottles, drug paraphernalia, and an unsettling display where a model’s naked body was used as a sushi platter. The aftermath reportedly included a trashed venue and plenty of questions about Diddy’s infamous lubricants. Yes, you read that right.
Now 37, Meek Mill didn’t directly address these claims but instead pivoted to his favorite pastime—posting tangential rants on X. He shared a screen recording of media outlets reporting on the footage, accusing the coverage of being racially motivated and claiming that none of the outlets are owned by Black men. However, his deflection tactic didn’t land. Social media users quickly dismantled his argument, questioning why he hasn’t sued for defamation if the footage and stories are false.
The Diddy Connection
Meek’s close ties to Diddy have made him a focal point of public curiosity, with many speculating that he knows more about Diddy’s operations than he admits. This suspicion isn’t helped by Diddy’s current legal troubles. Denied bail and reportedly trying to intimidate witnesses, Diddy faces serious allegations ranging from assault to bribery. While Diddy appears resigned to the fact that “the truth” won’t save him, Meek’s evasive responses are drawing attention of their own.
In deleted posts (thankfully captured by outlets like Cheatsheet), Meek subtly defended Diddy while suggesting the legal system is weaponized against Black men. “They putting Black men in jail off stories. I wish Puff well; he’s a Black man. I hope he didn’t do most of that [stuff] they saying he did. Why y’all scared to talk? Y’all must got [stuff] in closet!” he wrote. He also accused the media of fueling hatred and pushing an agenda against Black athletes and artists. While Meek’s frustration with systemic bias is valid, using it to deflect accountability or silence valid concerns rings hollow.
Crying Wolf and Burning Bridges
Meek’s attempt to reframe Diddy’s trial as a racial attack undermines genuine discussions about systemic injustice. While false narratives about Black men in media are an undeniable issue, invoking this truth to sidestep accountability damages the credibility of those discussions. Worse, it risks alienating those who seek justice for Diddy’s alleged victims.
As Diddy’s trial approaches in May 2025, the fallout is likely to extend beyond him. Meek Mill’s clumsy handling of the issue is a prime example of why other celebrities with ties to Diddy are staying silent. For now, Meek’s posts are doing little to clear his name—or his reputation as one of social media’s most unintentionally entertaining figures. At this rate, if Diddy’s ship goes down, Meek may find himself dragged along, not for his involvement, but for failing to keep his fingers off the keyboard.
