Meek Mill recently asserted his financial success in the music industry, claiming to have made $80 million since his feud with Drake began in 2015. The conflict, rooted in allegations of ghostwriting, escalated through a series of diss tracks, including Drake’s infamous ‘Back to Back’.
In 2015, the public witnessed a heated exchange between the two artists. The feud not only highlighted their lyrical prowess but also ignited debates about authenticity in rap music. Fast forward to 2018, Meek Mill was released from prison—his time behind bars seemingly transformed him. That year marked a turning point: he reconciled with Drake.
Since their reconciliation, Meek Mill has enjoyed a resurgence in his career. He released the track ‘Going Bad’ featuring Drake in 2019, a collaboration that signaled their renewed friendship. This partnership contributed to the momentum that propelled Mill back into the spotlight.
Meek’s successes are tangible. He has sold multiple platinum records since his release from jail. Notably, tracks like ‘Tap’ and ‘Peta’ achieved platinum status three and two times respectively, showcasing his ability to connect with audiences despite past controversies.
Key achievements post-feud:
- Claimed to have made $80 million off rap since the feud began.
- Went independent in 2025, allowing for greater creative control.
- Saw multiple tracks certified platinum after prison release.
Charlamagne Tha God remarked on Meek’s recovery and growth within the industry—his comments reflect a broader recognition of Mill’s resilience. Yet, Meek himself acknowledges the challenges of navigating this newfound independence: “Since I went independent s**t been moving so weird.”
The current state of affairs shows Meek Mill firmly positioned as a significant player in rap music. His journey illustrates not just personal triumph but also highlights the complexities within the music industry—where feuds can lead to both conflict and unexpected opportunities.
