Meek Mill Reacts After Michael Rubin Apologizes For Black Culture Comments

Meek Mill weighed in after Michael Rubin made some controversial comments as he defended the Philly native from Internet trolls.

On Thursday, August 15, Meek hopped on X, formerly known as Twitter, to share his thoughts about Rubin's recent rant about Black culture. During his appearance on The Breakfast Club earlier this week, Rubin shut down rumors about Meek's sexuality, questioned why people would want to bring the rapper down, and said he's not a fan of "Black on Black hate." Rubin later issued an apology and said it wasn't his place to speak on Black culture.

"I got a phone call from one of the people I have the most respect for in the world - they told me while they appreciate my intention, it’s not my place to speak on black culture," Rubin wrote in a statement on X. "I get it and really appreciate the input! My intention was to say how important it is that we need to uplift each other, stop hate on each other, and push each other to win, and always root for each other’s success! My bad , Much love and appreciate the feedback❤️❤️"

A few hours later, Meek offered his thoughts about the situation. He agreed that Rubin probably shouldn't have said his comments "out loud." He also said he previously discussed issues within the Black community with Rubin, but couldn't explain it all "in a sensible way."

"Rubin shouldn’t be saying that type stuff out loud … a black man suppose to but nobody saying it… Its like we only collab on songs women and parties… he be hearing my friends getting murdered like why meek, I can’t explain it to him in a sensible way!

"Yall let somebody paid promo a video of me bunny hopping from a 5 year old video silly bet ……. Ima real don in the trenches and ima real top tier black man that get respect in the rooms of many wealthy people it overwhelmes me at times I run away from it!" Meek continued.

Despite Meek's thoughts, Rubin still received a lot of backlash. Even ScHoolboy Q sounded off about his comments. See what Q and The Breakfast Club had to say about the situation below.
