Zitat des Tages von Meek Mill:
I don't rely on catchphrases or really like sing-along. I just do whatever I feel. Whatever the beat makes me say, I do that and I run with that. It's been working for me, so I'd be cool with that.
Just build your brand from day one, man. Your brand is your name, basically. A lot of people don't know that they need to build their brand, your brand is what keeps you moving.
When I'm not in the booth, I'm one of the most laid-back guys. But growing up, I liked DMX, Jay-Z, 50 Cent, and T.I. - dudes that went all out on the track. My first songs were energetic because I liked their energy.
Philly ain't a good environment for you when you headed in a different direction. Bad things happen left and right. You might walk up the street, make a wrong turn, and your whole life could flip.
I need, sometimes, individuals to spark an idea so that I can take off running.
I don't think I would change really anything about rap. Rap don't have no limits to it, and I like it like that.
My talent is my talent. I ain't really tripping off no ego; I just like to make good music with good people.
Meek Mill - my homies used to call me 'Meek Millions,' and at the time I didn't have no millions, so I ain't really want to be called 'Millions,' so I just shortened it down to Meek Mill. 'Meek Milli,' my friends used to call me.
I'm not gone remix a record I don't got no love for.
I'm always gonna be all over my CD the most, of course. My talent is my talent. I ain't really tripping off no ego; I just like to make good music with good people.
Every time I bought someone's album, it was about the connection. I was loving everything, from their raps to their style. I wanted to meet them.
If you say I just yell on records, that means you ain't a real fan of me, and I would never even give your comment the time of day.
I've always been rapping before I was making money off of it. Before I made a profit, I had always been rapping.
When my girl do better than me, I still win. When I do better than her, she still wins.
Everybody think they're famous when they get 100,000 followers on Instagram and 5,000 on Twitter.
I ain't drop an album since I was 25. I rap way better. I've experienced way more.
I think everybody from Philadelphia been shot at before.
People say money ain't nothing; money is basically everything.
Philly gave me my ambition and drive to get more. It's a reminder to stay on top of my game. That's not a place I want to go back to.
I always had pressure on myself through my life. I put pressure on myself and not from other people. I always wanted to be one of the hottest rappers. So the pressure comes from myself.
I don't like a girl on social media, when you have an open inbox, answering questions from dudes left and right every day. What's the point? It's like having your number all out. Everybody think they're famous when they get 100,000 followers on Instagram and 5,000 on Twitter.
Jay-Z ain't a manager; he owns a management company. He been through this; he been through the game for a long time, so he knows tactics in taking artists in certain directions we need to go in.
