Meek Mill has responded to the backlash he’s been receiving over his recent question about music listening in Africa. Taking to Twitter on Saturday, Meek asked how his fans in South Africa and Nigeria consume his music. Many users didn't appreciate the way they perceived his tone to be condescending and took offense. In response, Meek says he was asking an innocent question.
“Do a lot of people play my music in South Africa? I remember having on big show [there a] few years back… how do y’all listen to our music in South Africa???? On what platform or in Nigeria?" Meek wrote.

[I don’t know] what platforms [are] used in South Africa lol,” Meek wrote. He followed up: “People are have losing their minds at a rapid pace!”
