The Philadelphia Eagles have selected Meek Mill’s track “Dreams and Nightmares” for their Super Bowl intro on Sunday in support of the incarcerated star.
Meanwhile, the rapper’s team and his management Roc Nation are vowing to continue to put pressure on Philadelphia Judge Genece Brinkley — who jailed Meek for up to four years for a parole violation — even as she threatens to sue them for defamation.
In November, Philly-born Meek was sentenced by Brinkley to two to four years in state prison for allegedly violating probation in a decade-old gun and drug case — despite the district attorney and his probation officer having asked for no jail time. The harsh sentence sparked an outcry, with stars including Jay-Z and Rick Ross criticizing Brinkley and the justice system.
Meek’s legal team has accused Brinkley of acting “inappropriately” by allegedly suggesting he drop Roc Nation as his management in favor of local music figure Charlie Mack, who repped him in his early career.
Plus, they claim Brinkley further overstepped by asking Meek — in her private chambers in front of his then-girlfriend Nicki Minaj — to record a song and give her a shout-out in the lyrics.
Brinkley denies having asked Meek to record a song for her, and insists she has no personal connection to Mack.
Brinkley has now hired Philly attorney A. Charles Peruto Jr., who alleges Meek’s legal team has been making “baseless claims” about the judge’s conduct, and denies allegations that Brinkley had tried to extort personal favors from the rapper.
Peruto is threatening a defamation lawsuit, and told Page Six, “Her reputation has been severely damaged. Mill’s case, and how she handled it, is not unusual.”
Meek’s attorney Joe Tacopina added, “We look forward to a lawsuit from the judge and taking this to court where she will be deposed under oath . . . We won’t be intimidated.”
