Meek Mill, born Robert Rihmeek Williams on May 6, 1987, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is an American rapper and activist recognized for his raw and gritty lyrical style that reflects his challenging upbringing. Meek's music career gained traction with his "Flamerz" series of mixtapes, leading to his breakthrough "Dreamchasers" series. His debut album, "Dreams and Nightmares," was released in 2012 under Rick Ross's Maybach Music Group and Warner Bros. Records, which included the explosive, street-anthem title track.

Often addressing themes of struggle, triumph, and injustice, Meek Mill has cultivated a loyal fanbase and has established himself as a prominent figure in hip-hop. His legal struggles, including a high-profile prison sentence for probation violations that sparked widespread debate on criminal justice reform, have further influenced his music and public persona. With recent tracks like "Too Good To Be True" and "Above The Law," Meek continues to showcase his resilience and ability to adapt his sound to the evolving landscape of hip-hop. His collaborations, such as "SHAQ & KOBE (Remix)" featuring Shaquille O’Neal and Dame D.O.L.L.A., demonstrate his wide-reaching appeal and ability to bridge different audiences together through his artistry.
