Like most rappers from his label, Meek Mill primarily makes GangstaRap. What makes him stand out among them is the overall tone of his music. While he's made plenty of bragging songs, a large portion of his work--with topics ranging from watching his neighbor turn into a cocaine addict to vowing revenge against the man that killed his father--takes a realistic and gritty approach to street life. The page quote itself is taken from a song about a young gangster who killed his friend for a kilo of cocaine.
