Meek Mill is back in full force with a powerful new single, “WHO DECIDES WAR.” After a few weeks of social media noise—mostly due to his ongoing connection with Diddy—the Philly rapper is turning heads with his music once again. The track comes after a few singles like “ROBBIE SON” and “CYBER TRUCK” that brought back the old Meek energy. While those tracks showed off his skills as an MC, “WHO DECIDES WAR” dives into deeper territory, giving fans a glimpse into Meek’s thoughts on both personal struggles and global issues.
“WHO DECIDES WAR” doesn’t just tackle the pressures of life in the streets—it’s also a commentary on the state of the world. Meek connects the pain he feels from his own past in South Philly to the tragic realities of the war in Gaza, making a broader statement about survival and trauma. Through the track, Meek shows how the battles we face on the streets often mirror larger conflicts happening worldwide. He gets personal, speaking on his PTSD and the weight of the guilt he feels for making it out of the chaos, while so many others are left behind.
Musically, “WHO DECIDES WAR” has that familiar melodic vibe that reminds us of Polo G or Lil Durk, starting off with a sung hook before diving into Meek’s classic gritty verses. He reflects on the hardship of growing up in a place where survival was never guaranteed and paints a picture of what it’s like to live in a constant state of fear. The song, though not groundbreaking in terms of sound, feels like an important reminder of how Meek’s past continues to shape his present.
It’s clear that Meek is still processing the trauma of his upbringing, and this track showcases that in an intimate and relatable way. While it may not be the most dynamic song we’ve heard from him, it’s definitely a change of pace from his more recent releases, and that’s something fans appreciate.
As for an album, Meek has stayed tight-lipped. His last full-length project, Too Good To Be True, was a long-awaited collab with Rick Ross, but it’s been a while since then. Hopefully, “WHO DECIDES WAR” is a preview of what’s to come. Until then, hit play on this track and let Meek’s reflection hit home.
