Meek Mill is being trolled on Twitter as a hypocrite for the way he defended Young Thug.

Fans are using Meek Mill's past comments during his feud with Drake to label him a hypocrite after his recent defense of Young Thug. Amid the YSL rapper's ongoing RICO trial, Meek wrote that his lyrics shouldn't be used as evidence in a court of law. In making that argument, he explained that artists share lyrics all the time in the studio.

"It should be impossible to charge thug and lucci for lyrics because in the studio we all give eachother lines and don’t remember who said what after a high night in the studio…. I have done it with both of them … they both gave me lyrics b4… we all do this!" Meek wrote. In response, fans complained about him accusing Drake of needing ghostwriters. "Wait.. but you threw a fit about this when drake did it?" one fan replied. Another wrote: "Lol you'll [sic] accused Drake for using a ghostwriter."
