New Meek Mill album coming in October?

Meek Mill's been teasing his not-so-surprise album for a few weeks at this point. Meek's had one hell of a year, without question, and we're sure he has a lot of things to get off his chest with his forthcoming effort. He dropped off his Legends Of The Summer EP a few months back which held us over for the summer, but we're eager to get a full body of work from the Philly MC. But, it looks like we won't have to be waiting too long for it.

After receiving Billboard's inaugural Power Players Impact Award last night, he chopped it up with Billboard about his upcoming album. While he didn't reveal a whole lot, he did indicate that we won't be waiting too long.

"My album coming soon," he said. "It's coming real soon, like in a matter of weeks."

Over the past few weeks, Meek's been teasing some of the possible collaborators on the project. He was previously spotted in the studio with Kodak Black - who just released his first post-prison single today, "If I'm Lyin', I'm Flyin'." He was also recently spotted with Ed Sheeran in the studio. Whether they were just kicking it or making music remains unclear.

Additionally, there are rumors floating around of a possible Meek Mill and Cardi B collab. There's yet to be any concrete evidence other than hearsay, but it'll be interesting to hear the outcome of the song.
