‘No video I drop is ever meant to disrespect the people of Ghana,’ wrote the rapper.
It was all good just a week ago, quite literally, for rapper Meek Mill. During the musician’s visit to Accra, Ghana, for Afrochella, the “Going Bad” rapper made good on his promise to deliver cinematic new visuals in the new year. Unfortunately, one of those visuals has landed the Philadelphia native in hot water. The initial overwhelming warm embrace he received from the Ghanaian people didn’t stop fans in the region from quickly checking Meek for filming a music video inside the country’s presidential home.
Ghana has shown me the most love I’ve ever felt at once!!! Thankyou

After posting the official visual to social media, the Ghanaian people called out Meek Mill and the Ghanaian government for being careless. The visual, which featured aerial shots of the grounds, could present a potential security risk to President Nana Akufo-Addo’s safety.
Meek Mill really shot a music video at Jubilee House????? This is the lowest point we can get as a country
What happened to “Jubilee House is a security zone”???????? Even American Embassy in Ghana, you can’t take pictures and Ghana ???????? allows Jubilee House to become studio.
