Earlier this week, Ice Spice got caught up in an online drama that seemed to spawn from almost nothing. A clip made the rounds online of the breakout rap star being handed a drink by a fan. Instead of drinking it herself, she hands it off to a friend which is where the controversy started. Fans online came at her for a variety of reasons. Some questioned why she didn't drink it since it was a gift from a fan. But most people wondered why she handed it off to a friend if she was suspicious of it in the first place.
Now, Meek Mill is coming to Ice Spice's defense over the matter. "it’s crazy people really expect you to drink a cup from a random person …" he responded to the video via a quote tweet. As you'd expect, fans quickly pointed out that Meek was sort of missing the point. "Then she shouldn’t have gave the drink to her friend if she distrusted it," one popular comment pointed out to him. As of the time of publishing Meek hasn't responded to any of the fans pointing that out to him. Check out his original thoughts on the situation below.

Last week, Meek Mill and Rick Ross unleashed their new collaborative album Too Good To Be True. The album had a star-studded list of collaborators including Cool & Dre, BEAM, Vory, Fabolous, Teyana Taylor, DJ Khaled, Wale, The-Dream, Jeremih, French Montana, and Future all make appearances. The album also ends with a special remix featuring contributions from Damian Lillard and Shaq.
Despite the big names on the album, it's only expected to sell between 30k and 35k copies in its first week. The low figures didn't seem to phase Meek though, who explained to fans that he and Ross were doing things differently and owned their work.
