The Chirp: Meek Mill vs. Drake
As Tuesday night turned to Wednesday morning, Meek Mill unleashed a string of heat-seeking Twitter missiles.
Chief among those catching Meek’s tweet heat was Drake.
Stop comparing drake to me too…. He don’t write his own raps! That’s why he ain’t tweet my album because we found out!
