Lil Durk Shows Support For Meek Mill Amid Prison Sentence



Lil Durk is showing support for rap protégé Meek Mill after the MMG artist was handed a three to six month sentence for violating his probation.

Durk took to his social media accounts to call for the Philly rapper’s freedom.

“Free my n-gga @MeekMill



“Free @MeekMill let a real n-gga out



“Free #meek,” Durk wrote.



Meek Mill’s probation reportedly stemmed from a 2009 drug and gun case.

Common Pleas Court Judge Genece E. Brinkley scolded the “Levels” rapper during his court hearing Friday.

“After all these years of me trying to help him move his career forward… I believe this defendant is basically thumbing his nose at me,” she said, according to the Inquirer.

Meek, 27, pleaded with Brinkley to give him another chance.

“It took me 15 years to get here and this will be extremely damaging to my life,” he reportedly said.

Assistant District Attorney Noel DeSantis suggested Brinkley to sentence Meek to 5 to 10 years in prison.

DeSantis showed the court a photo of Meek posing with four men allegedly holding a real semiautomatic pistol. Meek’s attorney Gary Silver denied the weapon’s authenticity, saying it was “prop” used during a photo shoot. DeSantis also cited a tweet where Meek referred to her as a “racist b-tch.”

The reported final straw occurred when Meek booked concert dates during a time Brinkley ordered him to stop performing while she tried to resolve his probation problems.

Meek’s recent sentence affects scheduled concerts between July 11 and August 11, according to the Associated Press. Meek’s scheduled concert appearance in Washington Friday night has been cancelled.

Meek Mill is currently prepping the release of his sophomore album “Dreams Worth More Than Money,” which is slated to drop Sept. 9.
