Despite the widespread success of Meek Mill’s music, this has been a crazy summer for the Philly emcee. His next album conveniently titled, “Dreams Worth More Than Money,” speaks on his musical mindset. In an interview with XXL, he gets into the true meaning of it. Check it out after the jump.
I wanted to go with the title because I just felt like when I first came into the game I was just hustling and trying to make a lot of money. And now since I got on and made some money, I feel like rapping was always my dream, really. So I just really wanna pursue that over really being about money now. When I first came out, my concern was mainly about getting my family off the streets, changing my way of living so I wouldn’t have to do the things I used to have to do. Now that I’ve changed all that, now it’s just about the sport all over again. I feel like I’m on the corner battling the cyphers [but] not for money, it’s for the fun, it’s for the competition.
