Just like his fellow peers, Meek is expanding his resume with a headphones deal. He took to Twitter yesterday and announced his new deal with Skull Candy.
Gay
Two words, Roc Nation
$8 skull candys > $300 dre beats
Mmg winning
Skull Candys are homosexual
Nigga dont even have an real album out and he already gettin endorsements like that? Meek is cool,but goddamn.Whatever.
I guess rappers getting headphones is the 10’s version of a rapper clothing line. SMH still can’t be original.
word @ Ten macaroni
lol…my Skull Candys are some of the best sounding earphones I ever bought
Who cares? Skull Candy headphones are flemsy as hell
So when did you clowns decide what type of headphones are for gays and which aren’t? All this gay talk on rap radar makes you clowns look suspect. Y’all some trendy guys huh??? Lmao

Here’s some more artist branding for you, Meek Mill just signed a deal with Skull Candy for a headphones deal. The rise of the multifaceted/multi-branded emcee continues…
You know it made perfect sense for Dre to do a line of headphones. He’s known to value audio fidelity, and has crafted some of the finest beats in the game over several decades, so he clearly knows a lot about sound quality.
But Meek? Who says he knows anything about sound quality? He’s known for spitting that ratchet shit. He’s not the one making sure the levels are good or anything, he just spits his bars and let’s the producer/engineer handle that. How do I know if he cares about the highest quality fidelity? What makes him an expert on the technical details? Dre has more credibility in that field than any other dude who also spits bars.
As more and more rappers start making headphones, it’s less and less about them actually having input in the technical aspects of design and more and more about attaching a face/label/brand to a product. As far as I can tell these are just gonna be regular Skullcandy’s with Meek’s face/decorations on them. Which is fine, but it’s not a special product like the Beats by Dre.

Its crazy how 20 years ago you would of been a sellout for doing shit like this. But now, if rapper Rick Ross released a Matell doll it would sell out in the stores. Mainly for irony, but still. Or the Maybach Music Group Variety Show would be a hit. All of them wearing matching 70s disco suits singing songs and A Phyillis Diller hologram doing a tight 7. All I’m saying is MC Hammer got screwed.
Co-sign @MeatBob to the tenth power
Meanwhile, my new iPhone comes with headphones.

Still, I respect the grind.
ROSS WINS AGAIN WHERE ARE THE ENDORSEMENTS DEALS FOR THE NIGGAZ THAT JEEZY SIGNED TO HIS LABEL??
Weak Mill is wack.
Beats By Dre > Ludcris headphones,Meek Mill Headphones,50 headphones.
All these suckers try to better Dr Dre,it simply wont happen.Beats By Dre are everywhere,a global brand that sells like fuck.Thats why he is the top earner of Forbes this year.
Dr.Dre = BOSS and all these other leeches better find something else to sell,come up with something else,something new.
skull candy = YN. real homo shit.
Why is that guy holding onto the biggest dildo?
