Meek Mill has a new album and the cover art for the project depicts pictures of black women in ‘abstract art’, naked in various positions.
This was Meek’s pinned post on Twitter:
My new album #ExpensivePain out now ???? – Listen here: https://t.co/343EbyijEl pic.twitter.com/jLBxZCjiGx

At the time of posting the above Tweet, there were a few users who shared that they were not comfortable with the art but it didn’t quite have the outrage on Twitter as it does now.
Wrapping the bus in the album art seem to hit different for some who have seen the bus in their city.

The man who was going up about Meek Mill’s tour bus is absolutely correct and justified. I find the “artwork” on the bus to be disgusting and tasteless. Negroaches like Meek Mill will always find a new low, it’s absurd.

This is rapper Meek Mill’s album cover.
When are Black people going to call out Black people for the injustices against Black people?
The number one threat to Black women is Black men.
The most disrespectful people towards Black women are Black Men.
WHERE ARE THE FEMINISTS?

Everyone is coming for @MeekMill tour bus but y’all actively support rapists, pedophiles, and other artists who actively degrade women in rap songs referring to yourself as “hoes, bitches, sluts” but cartoon naked black women is where y’all draw the line? ? the clownery.
