Meek Mill has been teasing the release of his new album Wins & Losses, and now we finally have a firm date: July 21.
The Philly rapper revealed the date along with a trailer featuring a preview of a new song and the caption: "We will address everything!" on Monday:
WINS & LOSSES 7/21

"Wins & Losses is my new album and I'm just breaking down the wins & losses of my life," Meek said in a statement. "It's all about what molded me into being Meek Mill today and the trials and tribulations of my life that made me bigger and better." The album, featuring recent single "Whatever You Need," will be accompanied by a Spike Jordan-directed short film of the same name. Meek is also slated to appear on the premiere of BET's new docuseries On Tour With this Tuesday.
Given the events that have transpired since Meek's last studio album Dreams Worth More Than Money (2015), his promise to "address everything" is quite the vow. In addition to Drake matters, we should probably expect to hear Meek's thoughts on his split from Nicki Minaj and his apparent feud with Safaree Samuels.
Speaking with HipHopDX over the weekend, Safaree shared a few words about the Meek situation. "Fuck him," he said at a screening of Ray J's Raydemption in Hollywood. "He's a coward. That's it." Presumably, he was referencing Meek's alleged orchestration of the widely discussed confrontation at a BET Awards party last month. Meek has denied involvement.
Meek recently dropped a new four-song collection entitled Meekend Music II. The Independence Day release followed May's Meekend Music I and featured production from Mike Will Made-It, Street Runner, Dougie, and Papamitrou. Check it out here if you haven't already.
