B. Simone has been under fire for a week because her latest self-help book has been called everything from “cheap” to “plagiarized” work. Video after agonizing video has shown the cheapness of B. Simone’s book as well as side by sides of her pages and work that was cribbed from the internet. She’s been getting dragged nonstop for it.

Meek Mill jumped in the fray to defend her with this:

Now, we get that he is trying to defend a Black woman and we commend him for it. We get it. Salute to Meek for this.

The internet also sees what he’s doing as hypocritical for the way he trashed Drake for doing the same thing. It is also important that she is allegedly scamming fellow Black people.

“Meek said we should let B Simone rock for taking someone’s idea/using it in her book but was trying to hold Drake to the fire when he thought someone else wrote Drake’s lyrics lmao”

“*B Simone stealing from black people*

Meek Mill: “I know some niggas that be shooting up whole blocks””

“Meek Mill saying we wrong for canceling B. Simone but she canceled us first, saying she doesn’t need an app, then again when she said she don’t need no 9-5ers. So she getting what she asked for.”

“Meek: DRAKE DONT WRITE HIS RAPS
Also Meek: WHO CARES IF B. SIMONE AINT WRITE THE BOOK SHE BLACK JUST LIKE US”

“Meek tried to “cancel” Drake for having ghostwriters and doesn’t think it’s wrong that B Simone blatantly plagiarized material for her books

How exactly does this work”
