However, all is not as it seems. Meek Mill was in fact quoting lyrics from a rising Philly rapper and former collaborator LIHTZ.
The line is from his song “Serenity,” which has been making waves online and attracted the attention of some big players, including Timbaland.
The superproducer responded to LIHTZ via the comment section on IG. “Nowwwww this rite here,” Timbo wrote alongside a trio of head-blown emojis.
However, Timbaland didn’t stop there after spotting his talent. The pair were soon on Facetime together before hopping in the studio together. Shortly after, Timbaland and LIHTZ debuted a new collab titled “Problem Child.” Watch the video below.
