Meek Mill Says He’s Dropping A New Album Every Quarter In 2023
Meek Mill is coming for his in 2023. The Philadelphia rapper’s had a tumultuous year in the music industry, largely due to issues with his record label. However, he’s coming in stronger than ever with a slew of projects planned for this year.
Meek hit IG on New Year’s Day to announce he was going to release a project every quarter this year. Additionally, he revealed a film titled Dream Catching was on the way.
The Instagram post included several snippets of new music videos for upcoming singles.
“Dream catching” the movie date soon come#2023 first quarter,” he wrote. “Leave a comment! I been loading up for a reason let’s ball!”
Meek Mill previously announced in July 2022 that he would be releasing 10 albums independently. However, he only dropped one body of work since that announcement. In November, he blessed fans with the fifth installment in the Flamerz series, which many felt was a return to form. Flamerz 5 found Meek tackling some of the biggest songs of the year, from DJ Khaled’s “GOD DID” to Ice Spice’s viral hit record, “Munch.”
The Dream Chaser rapper closed out 2022 on a high note following his performance in Ghana for Afro Nation festival. Unfortunately, the trip wasn’t entirely smooth. Meek said someone pickpocketed his phone. Though authorities tracked down his phone, he later backtracked on his comments, claiming that it could’ve simply fell out of his pocket rather than being pickpocketed.
“I coulda dropped that phone on a dirt bike I don’t actually know for a fact somebody went in my pocket!” He tweeted. “I got it back that’s all I needed I don’t need anybody locked up for a phone.., I don’t even know what happened to it.”

Kanye West Reunites With ‘Donda’ Standout Vory On The Dream Chasers Rapper’s Debut Album
Of all the artists who were featured on Kanye West’s new album Donda, one of the standouts was Dream Chasers rapper Vory. The Meek Mill-associated artist featured on a number of the album’s songs, including “God Breathed,” “Jonah,” and “No Child Left Behind.” The project turned out to be a watershed moment for the rising star, who now turns his attention to his own debut album — which has turned out to be just as star-studded as Kanye’s.
According to a text screenshot he posted on his Instagram, his upcoming project will reunite him with Kanye West, as well as connect him with trap rap man of the hour Gunna, whose own new album DS4EVER recently debuted at No.1 on the Billboard 200. Other rappers involved will include the emergent Landstrip Chip, Toronto hitmaker Nav, and Mobile, Alabama crooner Yung Bleu, as well as newcomers Beam and Rockford, Illinois battle rapper Fresco.
Before taking off thanks to his appearances on Donda, Vory put in major work behind the scenes, writing alongside Bryon Tiller, Drake, and The Carters‘ Jay-Z and Beyonce, while working on refining his own records. He signed to Dream Chasers in 2020 before putting out a self-titled EP showing off his polished pen. He was also featured on Meek Mill’s 2021 album, Expensive Pain. Vory’s debut will be out sometime this year.
