Contrary to the notion that rap is declining, Meek Mill, an American rapper, confidently asserts that he is still profiting immensely.
He claims to earn a minimum of 1 million dollars from each of his recorded songs.
“I’m getting a million a song… so that’s $62,500 every bar I speak… They say this rap sh*t dying must be on Billboard because it’s not to Meek!,” he wrote on his Instagram page.
This statement arose following a recent interview where Nigerian singer, Wizkid, proclaimed that hip-hop is no longer relevant.
This triggered strong reactions from various hip-hop artists, both domestically and internationally.
South African rapper Nasty C, M.I, Zoro Swagbag, Oladips, and several others openly criticized Wizkid for his controversial remark.
