However, glossy, MMG-monogrammed rap is what Dreamchasers 2 aims to showcase, and it's assisted by the type of quality beats you'd expect from a tape released under Rick Ross' watch. "How she gonna hate me when I just took 20 racks and put coats on them kids' back?" "I went to court the other day, the DA said she hate me," he explains, sounding pretty hurt about it.
MEEK MILL DREAMCHASERS 2 TRIAL
If Meek was to ever stand trial for forgetting where he came from, it serves as Exhibit A in his defence. It's a huge leap from the other, MMG-manicured side of Robert Williams showcased on the next track Flexin', where he disinterestedly bounces tired couplets over a throwaway Jahlil beat: "Purp got me bent/ If you aint talking about no money, you aint talking no sense."īig Dreams is another tale of street ambition on which Meek ditches the often-predictable flow and trades intensity for sincerity - a combination which also produces the mixtape's highest point, an angry response to a disapproving District Attorney delivered over Drake's The Ride. "Everytime I made money it was here, I said/ And if my n*ggas asked for it, it was yeah I said/ Selling butter just to get the fam' bread I spread/ I got married to the streets and it was here I wed," he raps on Use To Be. Meek chops between stories of his new money adventures and early struggles in Philadelphia throughout the tape, and only ever sounds genuinely inspired when focusing on the latter.
While the trappings of association with Maybach Music Group, the press conferences and the high-budget mixtape videos, may have boosted Meek's profile and preciptated an avalanche of expectation amongst fans, Dreamchasers 2 demonstrates the label's flashy image doesn't always bring out the best in young rapper.
