There’s no music criticism harsher than the Twitter jury, and Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill is finding that out following the release of his Drake diss track “Wanna Know” late Thursday.
Warning: Explicit content
Written and released in response to Drake’s “Back to Back” and “Charged Up” (which were themselves written in response to Meek’s allegations that Drake didn’t write his own rhymes), it’s not quite the roaring riposte that hip-hop fans were expecting. Save for an amusing suggestion that Drake was once urinated on by one of T.I.’s entourage, the lyrics lack both bite and humor — a disappointment considering Meek’s usual verbal fury. The most cutting thing about “Wanna Know” is the accompanying picture of Drake mocked up as a member of Milli Vanilli.
As a result, Meek (best known for being the boyfriend of Nicki Minaj) is currently being lampooned mercilessly on social media.
These are some of the funniest responses.
Tyra Banks had a few choice words for Meek. Kind of.
Meek Mill’s fiancée Nicki Minaj isn’t escaping the ridicule.
Fans of “The Simpsons” will appreciate this mock-up of Meek as Bart Simpson, as he pays dues to “6 God” Drake on the chalkboard.
Predictably, the poop emoji is getting plenty of use.
Excellent footwork on this Vine.
Even the fast food world tried to get a piece of the action.
But perhaps the most honest review was from Drake himself.
