Philly native and MMG's youngest in charge has been cookin' up trouble lately. In his defense its not purposely, at least, it doesn't seem so. Most of the hot water he has been in is holy water. Yup, Meek's been catching a lot of Biblical backlash from the philadelphia church community since recently releasing the song "Amen" ft. Drake and Jeremih
The movement was spearheaded by Pastor Jomo K. Johnson who proposed the boycott of the song. The reason being is the church feels it is blasphemous to God to thank the lord for various vices witch the pastor feels they did in the song.
Yesterday the two verbalized the conflict by exchanging words via the Philly chapter. Meek answered quite intellegently might I ad. His main point was that it seemed suspicious that a pastor heard about the song only after hours of it's relaese. Come to find out the Pastor Johnson is a hip-hop fan as well as an artist himself! Meek felt that he was only trying to gain publicity or money for his church/rap career. If he felt the need for help from him for the community then he should've simply come and ask instead of attempt to turn him into a religious pariah for his own selfish purposes, and then he dropped the fact that he was atheist and was unfaised by the anti-religious accusations.
Do ya'll think the pastor was wrong or right?
