American rapper Robert Rihmeek Williams, popularly known as Meek Mill, says he is considering acquiring Ghanaian citizenship.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Meek Mill expressed dissatisfaction with living in the United States.
The rapper wrote; "I wanna get citizenship in Ghana!!!! America made to tear black men down if you don’t follow orders!"
This is not the first time the rapper has spoken about Ghana since his first visit in 2023.
In a question and answer session on X in October 2023, Meek Mill announced that he would be returning to Ghana.
He, however, did not set a specific date for it. But, Meek Mill promised to sign an artiste from Ghana during this trip.
His first visit was not without controversy. He filmed a music video in the Jubilee House attracting criticisms from Ghanaians.
He was accused of "desecrating" Jubilee House, while MPs raised questions about the potential security risks.
In a statement, Mill said he would "take responsibility for my mistake. To the people of Ghana, no video I drop is ever meant to disrespect the people of Ghana," he wrote.
"The fastest way to make connection is thru music [sic] and I wanted to do that with displaying art. I'm in my 30s from America and didn't know much about the lifestyle."
He added that officials for Ghana's president, Nana Akufo-Addo, may not have been aware he was shooting a music video, saying the set-up had been "a small camera and a kid".
Meanwhile, this comes after social media speculated that he was one of the unnamed musicians who is alleged to have had sexual relations with Sean 'Diddy' Combs, in a lawsuit brought against the American Music mogul that alleges sexual assault and sex trafficking.
However, the artist's name is not visible in the documents made available to the public nor has he been accused of an outright crime in the suit brought by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones.
Meek Mill has also denied any wrongdoing.
