He\u2019s currently on his nationwide tour, \u201cThe Motivation Tour.\u201d His latest album \u201cChampionships\u201d was released in November and debuted at number one on the Billboard Top 200 charts.\u00a0 Meek Mill performed many songs from this album, including \u201cIntro,\u201d \u201cTrauma,\u201d \u201cUptown Vibes,\u201d \u201cOn Me,\u201d \u201cRespect The Game,&#8221; \u201c100 Summers,\u201d and \u201cAlmost Slipped.\u201d Most notable was his performance of \u201cDreams and Nightmares,\u201d which was accompanied by images of downtown Philly. This song has been deemed &#8220;the greatest Philly sports anthem ever.\u201d The song achieved this honor when The Philadelphia Eagles rapped along to this song after their historic win over the Patriots in Super Bowl 2017. Although Meek Mill has received bad press for his 2017 arrest, he appears to have a new outlook on life and has really been able to connect to his fans.\u00a0 He even took a moment to encourage them to follow their dreams. Overall, Meek Mill delivered a powerful, energized, and passionate performance, and kept his fans highly engaged.
