Meek Mill and Drake had intense beef, but they’ve become close friends since they quashed the animosity.
According to Complex, Meek revealed how the rappers grew close after ending their years-long beef in 2018.
“Me and Drake talking to each other a lot. Somebody was saying ‘Drake[‘s] ‘Slime You Out’ was corny.’ I texted him. I was like, ‘I don’t think ‘Slime You Out’ is corny, and I would tell you if I thought it was corny.’ I just ain’t think the song was corny. … But on the internet now we got it like that, where we could like be brutal.”
Meek continued:
“If he thinks my song corny, he could tell me that. We never was at a space like that before the beef. And now we got to a space where we can text each other and say anything … We got that honesty where we can leave it on the table and we can walk away and feel good about that. And we ain’t had that before the beef.”

Meek made his comments five years after the pair buried the hatchet.
Earlier this summer, the two rappers reunited when the Toronto rapper brought Meek onstage during his tour stop in Philadelphia.
“Y’all see who I walked out here with right? I’d always keep it 100 with you. The last time I was in this building, that man right here, he’s been representing this city since he started this shit. It means the most to me that I could come back to this city and show the growth as two men that we can come here tonight and we can represent for motherfucking Philadelphia together. That’s what this s**t is about.”
It’s great that the rappers have become close after their animosity.
