Meek Mill Accuses Atlantic Records Of Taking Advantage Of Young Black Kids
Meek Mill has accused his record label Atlantic Records of intentionally delaying the release of his next album and taking advantage of young artists.
In a post to his Twitter on Tuesday, Mill accused Atlantic Records of “outsmarting young black kids, taking advantage of them and calling it business.”
He also claimed that his label had prevented him from releasing new music until nine months after his last album got “blackballed.”
“So look I made Atlantic records 100’s of millions and let them r*pe me out out [sic] Roddy a artist they came to me about in jail,” he wrote.
“They still saying I can’t drop music until 9 months after my last album got blackballed,” he added.
If I didn’t have millions I’d prolly do something crazy …. They out smarting young black kids taking advantage and calling it business! Other artist speak up and tell the truth while you winning not when you down!

Mill also said that Atlantic had cut him out of managing fellow rapper Roddy Ricch while he was in jail after he introduced the label to the rapper.
“Roddy my youngin still…. But that label seperated us instantly when the millions came in from him… same thing they tried to do with me and rozay…”

Mill is not the first rapper to criticise Atlantic recently. On Tuesday YoungBoy Never Broke also accused the label of “blackballing” him and removing one of his mixtapes from the charts.
