Meek Mill opened up about a time when he experienced “writer’s block” while in the studio with Lil Baby and Lil Durk.
On the new episode of HBO’s The Shop: Uninterrupted, Meek explained, “I had writer’s block, I’m in the house with a bunch of babies, quarantine. My lifestyle just changed dramatically.”
Meek described how he noticed the change in his creative process and used the younger rappers for inspiration.
“They start coming to my house, and I start noticing, these young boys, they smokin’ me,” Meek said about his studio encounter. “I’m taking two hours to finish my verse. Khaled know I do nine songs a day. I just wasn’t in it, but I fed off of them though. And I told them there, ‘Yeah, y’all youngins in the building, I’m feeding off y’all today. I need the energy.’ They came back four weeks later, I’m in that room going like this, bangin’ out. We just fed off each other through that time.”
