Philadephia rapper, Meek Mill, talks album release on at the 2018 Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players event in New York City on Thursday. Though, he didn't talk details but the first-ever Impact Award receiver re-assured fans his album will drop "like in a matter of weeks, to be truthful."

"My album coming soon. It’s coming real soon, like in a matter of weeks, to be truthful. Yeah, it’s on the way."Though he has yet to reveal any concrete details like a release date or title for the album, Meek has already provided a small tidbit of his forthcoming project for the world. During a recent stop in Washington, D.C., he shared a brand new snippet where he referenced Colin Kaepernick.
"They won’t lynch him by hanging from a tree/They lynch his bank account. They told Kap to stand up if you want to play for a team/And most of his teammates said the same thing […] Back in the ’30s you would be killed if you kneeled/They won’t kill you now, they just take you out of the deal." He rapped on the track.The idea that Meek would use his music to shed more light on the social and political issues plaguing America is definitely nothing new. The Philly native became one of the leading voices in criminal justice reform after he was hit with a controversial prison sentence stemming from decade-old charges last November. During his acceptance speech for his Impact Award earlier this week, Mill spoke about his commitment to social justice and why he wants to continue using his platform to encourage change.
"This time when I went to prison a lot of people stood up for me and a lot of people stuck their necks out for me at my roughest time in life,” he said to the crowd. “So, you know… I thought it was only right if I use some of my platform and my power to actually reach back and help the people that stood up for me in my worst times."You can check out Meek’s comments about his upcoming album and more below.
