Joe Budden
“Joe Buddens [sic] is corny as sh*t. And has always been corny as sh*t. And always commenting on sh*t and ain’t never did sh*t,” said Meek. He said more, but that about sums it up.
Also, “You supposed to be gay because you a street rapper?”
Three Year Intro
Meek admitted that the intro to Dream & Nightmares ended up being the biggest song of the album.
Light vs. Dark
Meek says the album changed after his release from jail. In example, “Check” and “Jump Out The Face” were recorded after he came home while “Ambitions As A Ridah” and “Cold Hearted” were holdovers from when he was in a dark place.
Weirdo Rap
Back to Joe Budden, who he called a “noodle” and a “weirdo,” Meek has no desire to battle him. He’s talking his sh*t back and that’s that.
Jail Blessings
Meek says being in jail helped him separate from the streets because he admits he was trying to do both, but it wasn’t going to work. Going to jail ain’t never been funny to Meek. Plus, he’s got a son to raise.
