Meek Mill – I’m Not In Jail, But I Still Don’t Feel Free
While Meek Mill is no longer behind bars, he still doesn’t feel free. The 30-year-old rapper says that now that he’s out of prison, a lot of people facing similar battles with the criminal justice system are depending on him. In his first TV interview he explained,
I got a lot of responsibility.
He said the men counting on him are “going through the same thing I’m going through.” When asked if he felt free, Mill responded,
I ain’t feel free since I caught this case at age of 19 – I’m 30 now.
As previously reported, Mill had been sentenced in November to two to four years behind bars for probation violations, setting off an all-out battle by a team of lawyers and public relations consultants to get him released on bail. They fiercely criticized the judge as a stream of high-powered figures and celebrities visited Mill in jail in the weeks and days before the Supreme Court ruling. After his release, Meek wrote on social media,
Although I’m blessed to have the resources to fight this unjust situation, I understand that many people of color across the country don’t have that luxury and I plan to use my platform to shine a light on those issues.

He said he planned to focus on getting his convictions overturned, and that he looks forward to resuming his music career.
