Meek Mill Shoots Down ‘Fake’ Claim Rick Ross Paid $50k Ransom to Release Him


Meek Mill shot down a claim made by imprisoned rapper Luce Cannon that he and some folks once kidnapped the rapper over his posts on Twitter.

In a clip from DJ Akademiks’ podcast, Cannon — who’s part of the Rollin’ 60s Crip gang and is behind bars for federal charges surrounding a RICO case — claimed that Ross paid off a $50,000 ransom to release Mill. Mill continued by calling out the “fake hip hop pages” who shared the news, saying that rumors spread like that “work for kids not for grown men.” He also said that he’s well respected by the West Coast. According to Billboard, Big U and Luce Cannon, who made the claim, are accused of racketeering, extortion, human trafficking, fraud, and the murder of a 21-year-old aspiring rapper.
