Rapper Nipsey Hussle Takes on Meek Mill and The Game’s Beef: ‘This Is Bad Leadership’

Posted byBy Kiersten Willis | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Rapper Nipsey Hussle is blasting Meek Mill and The Game for beefing. The MC caught wind of the growing problems between the combative performers on social media.

The Game proclaimed he wanted to “beat” Meek during a tour stop in Miami Sept. 15.

“I just wanna beat that n—- a– for a good time,” he says. “When you see me n—- , square up. It don’t gotta be about no guns, n—- . F– Meek Mill.”

Then, Game released a single called “92 Bars” on Sept. 16 in which he dissed Meek.

“Ever since that n—a snitched on me, we just don’t speak,” the Compton, California rapper said of Meek.

Later, Meek responded on Instagram. He called Game a “fake gangsta” and took aim at the West Coast MC for appearing on the dating game show “Change of Heart.”

Sources close to the two told TMZ Meek allegedly named Game and his crew as the ones involved in a jewelry robbery of singer Sean Kingston. The incident occurred in June at a Los Angeles nightclub, where Kingston was attacked before someone stole his $300,000 chain.

The episode is what set off the beef. And the duo has been trading social media insults ever since.

In response, Nipsey demanded hip-hop “stop gassing” the argument between Meek and Game. He also declared the two should “sit down like men and express they [sic] differences.”

Nipsey stated no war of “Black men killing Black men” will occur.

He added the understanding should be made separately from their careers and the public.

And it should reach a point where everyone can deal with each other “with respect.”

Then, Nipsey said Game and Meek should handle whoever is “in the wrong.”

The MC concluded by pointing out both The Game and Meek “got a lot of young Black men on your payroll.”

He blasted the two for displaying “bad leadership.”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
