Usually, snippets of songs are a cause for celebration for Rap fans as they get to hear a teaser of what’s to come from their favorite artists, but it didn’t work out so well for Meek Mill. The Philadelphia rapper has often previewed new songs for his fans and this time, a collaboration between him and Lil Baby surfaced on a fan page for the Atlanta star. Weeks ago, Meek teased a collaboration with Baby and Lil Durk, but it’s unclear if this snippet is from the same track.
