Do you know the story of Meek Mill?
Meek Mill is a gangster rapper who in his late teens had a scuffle with the law.
He was caught with a gun and drugs on his person by the police.
Reportedly he aimed his gun at the police and was therefore arrested and ultimately convicted.
He could have received many, many years in prison. Instead, the judge gave him probation.
After this initial incident, Meek Mill went on to become a famous rapper.
During these years he violated his probation many times via opioid use, popping wheelies on city streets, and failing to notify his probation officer before traveling out of state. He was therefore sent to prison a few times for various periods of time no greater than 7 months.
Through his own actions his probationary time was extended to as much as eight years.
Finally after many violations he was given a 4 to 6 year jail sentence by a black judge, Genece Brinkley, who evidently felt that all people including celebrities should live a life of responsibility (How silly of her).
By this time though Meek Mill had accumulated many celebrity friends who fought for his release.
People like Kevin Hart, international busybody-sociologist Jay Z, and sports weasel Michael Rubin, former part owner of the Philadelphia 76ers, worked tirelessly to release him.
Those friends were successful, and Meek Mill was ultimately released from prison to great fanfare and even a special celebratory appearance at a Philadelphia 76ers playoff game.
Ultimately his convictions were pardoned by the unenlightened, Ivy League fool and part-time race hustler – Governor Tom Wolf.
OK, so why am I telling you about this?
After his release from prison, Meek Mill was the subject of a Dateline episode, hosted by Lester Holt.
In this program, Lester Holt bent over backwards to highlight the unfairness of Meek Mill’s treatment by the judge who was supervising his probation.
The judge meanwhile, was portrayed as the vindictive “bad guy” in the Meek Mill saga.
I disagree.
The judge is not the bad person at all.
Lester Holt has it reversed.
It is Meek Mill who is the bad person.
The judge is the person who should be held up as an example and role model for black youth.
She – the judge – is the the one who went to school, the one obeyed the law, the one who insists that others obey the law.
Meek Mill was the person who was carrying drugs.
Meek Mill was the person who had a drug habit.
Meek Mill was the person who was carrying a gun.
Yes, it’s possible that the officer who testified against Meek Mill at his trial was lying.
But perhaps the officer knew something more about Meek Mill than we knew.
Maybe the officer knew that Meek Mill was a concerted career criminal at that stage of his life.
Maybe the officer knew that Meek Mill had done illegal stuff for which there was no evidence that would convict him.
Life isn’t always perfect. Many times we get nailed not for the stuff that we did do, but for the stuff that we got away with.
Nevertheless, Lester Holt and his team portrayed Meek Mill as some sort of benevolent role model who was giving hope to young black people.
These were the young people who were enthusiastically cheering for him as Meek Mill got out of prison.
Well, to be honest, I didn’t know much about Meek Mill or his music. So I decided to check in on the lyrics of his two most famous hits which are Tupac Back and Ima Boss.
Wellll … Meek Mill is hardly the Christian singer.
I will let his lyrics speak for themselves. Here are some selected verses.
Tupac back, I’m two glocks strapped
Rolling down in Philly this the new Iraq
Soon as I hit the the hood they screaming who got whacked
It’s a recession on the work, I’m screaming who got crack
I’m sippin’ Hennessy, riding on my motherfucking enemies
Sliding in the back screamin MMG (Maybach Music)
Ten bitches and they dime so it’s Tennessee
Hail Mary, put my wrist on froze
Presidential is gold, nigga play with my money my shooter’s lifting his soul
Forty kick like in soccer, bullets hittin’ the goal
Bitch I’m like John Wall cause I just give em and go
Plotting on this new seven, I can picture me rolling
Pockets look like they pregnant because them bitches is swollen
Got a grip I can loan, all them snitches could hold em
Look at them motherfucking wheels, them bitches is stolen
They screamin’
Some role model, eh? Here’s more.
Rattin’ ass niggas walkin’ ’round wearin’ wires
Fuckin’ up the game got the hood on fire
Bitch, I’m a king (king) call me sire
If you say I don’t run my city you a mo’fuckin’ liar
Bitch, I’m a boss (I’m a boss), you a fraud (you a fraud)
You cross the line I get you murdered for a cost (murder)
Out in Vegas (out in Vegas), I took a loss (took a loss)
At the fight we watchin’ Floyd, we on the floor (we on the floor)
Scared money don’t make no money
If I ever go broke, I’ma take yo’ money
I ain’t never dropped a dime
You ain’t take nothin’ from me
In the hood e’ryday, bitch, I’m good what I say
Bitch, I’m a boss (I’m a boss)
Bitch, I’m a boss (I’m a boss)
I plan the shots (huh) I call the calls (huh)
We in this bitch
It’s goin’ down
Yeah, I’m the king, now where my mo’fuckin’ crown?
Yep, he’s the role model all right. He’s the one we should be looking up to according to Lester Holt and his team.
We shouldn’t be surprised though.
There is a concerted effort amongst our corporate leadership in the United States to destroy the black community.
It’s all about the Benjamins.
Lester Holt, and Meek Mill are only pawns in that game.
NBC is a news media corporation controlled by the corporate oligarchy, and their goal is to create havoc in the black community so as to serve the welfare plantation racket and the prison industrial complex.
Promoting gangster rap serves that end.
The goal is to create false role models for black folk so that young black kids join in on the gangster-drug culture.
Chaos in the black family is essential to creating the conditions that produce black prisoners for the prison industrial complex.
Chaos in the black family is also essential to creating massive unemployment and broken homes that will ensure the necessity of welfare in perpetuity.
Casting decent black folks such as the judge in the Meek Mill saga as the bad guy also serves the interest of Corporate America.
Corporate America has no desire for black kids to graduate from high school and go to college. My gosh, if that happened, who would be the prisoners? Why, they’d have to shut down all those job-producing prisons that are sitting in white communities.
Plus, there friends wouldn’t be able to make all that money building and servicing the prisons. And there would be no need to supply the prisons with all the stuff the prisons need like blankets, pillows, beds, uniforms, guns, food, books, tables, lamps, televisions, office supplies, electrical and plumbing fixtures, laundry equipment, security and surveillance technology, and everything else under the sun. Why, that’s a multi-billion dollar industry.
Yes, Corporate America makes a fortune off the prison industrial complex and the welfare plantation racket.
Meek Mill claims that he wants to end the prison industrial complex.
No, my friend, he is part of it – lock, stock and barrel.
