Meek Mill follows Rick Ross with unusual new purchase

With his latest – and perhaps most unorthodox – purchase, Meek Mill has followed in the footsteps of his close collaborator Rick Ross.

The Philadelphia rapper shared with his followers on Tuesday (September 17) via X (formerly Twitter) that he recently entered the world of farming.

“In other news… I bought a farm the other day,” he wrote, followed by a series of tweets attacking those who “hate” him for being a self-made street success story.

Check out his post below.

Other news… I recently bought a farm

— Meek Mill (@MeekMill) 18 September 2024

Rick Ross took his own unusual step into farming in 2022 when he purchased a bull to live on his sprawling Promise Land property in Fayeteville, Georgia, which already included several horses and a John Deere tractor.

“You all know I bought a bull last week. One of my buddies called him a steer and I just named my steer that. I named him Thor, my first bull,” he said in a video of him with the farm animal.

“But I went to sleep last night and while I was sleeping, Thor started whispering something to me: 'Do you see that on the wall? Do you see that? That's a buffalo. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?'”

When asked in an interview in 2023 with People When he considers himself a farmer, the MMG mogul replied: “Fuck yeah.”

He added: “You just wish a lot of other people would try this. Try it once. Just relax, let it all go. Put your damn phone away and just sit back and relax. Let's feed the cows carrots. Let's talk to the horses. Let's go fishing for four hours. Let's do it.”

The duo Too Good To Be True aren't the only artists to embrace farm life. Benny The Butcher, Questlove and Kelis also own their own farms, while Waka Flocka Flame has previously attempted to learn the country life – and documented his journey on social media.
