Meek Mill visited Overbrook High School in his hometown of Philadelphia to talk with the students. “I just enrolled in college myself,” said Meek. “I took it upon myself to do that because I want to be the best at what I do. I want to be the best at what I do so I enrolled in college to educate myself, get myself more knowledge because knowledge make money, being educated makes you money and I like making money and taking care of my family.”
In a later part of his speech he encourages the students to focus on self-empowerment. “DC4, Nicki Minaj, Drake ain’t gon’ benefit ya’ll,” he said. “When I was your age, I never had a chance to talk to Jay Z, I never had a chance to talk to Beanie Sigel to ask them how can I get there.” On Monday (Jan. 18) he promised $50,000 to the Flint water crisis, and followed up with his pledge by donating 60,000 bottles of water to the city.
There has been no statement made on what college Mill is attending, but he is set to appear in court on February 5, to be sentenced for a probation violation.
