Free Meek

Just terrible. This series glorifies the "bad guy" into someone that blames events and others for his problems, and "it's not his fault".

There's enough rappers out there that don't need prison creds to give their music an edge. I'd rather feel good watching about someone fighting through all the adversity and becoming a success, *without* being a thug.

Eye opening and shocking documentary about the American justice (or injustice) system. The absolute power many judges have over all of us and their abuse of said power. Definitely a documentary that changed the way I see the system and people in jail.

It's evident that the promoters of the current unstable climate of this country are attempting to deter viewers with their comments. Such individuals are unable to take an objective look at the world and the inequalities that actually do exist but enough about them. This was an excellent documentary that provided more background to an already understood unjust system. It's unfortunate that 10+ years of this young man's life had to suffer to bring this mass awareness however, progress has been birthed out of his struggle. Job well done on this film!

Meek Mill is a famous rapper but what happened to him, happens to millions of black and brown people everyday. We don't have a criminal justice system, we have a criminal injustice system. This was a very good documentary. You get hooked in and it's hard to not see all the little parts that contribute to the broken system. So glad this artist is finally free! Hopefully more and more wrongfully convicted people spending time behind bars gets justice.

I'm not one for glorifying rappers or the lifestyles they tend to lead, but let's be honest with ourselves. The American justice system is in fact broken. If you're not black in America, you certainly don't know what it's like to be black in America. For many black males in America, the only way out of a life in the wrong side of town is to be a professional athlete or a rapper. Their role models are glorifying getting high, drunk, and laid. Rappers even benefit from going to jail, as it boosts their "street cred", which is only possible if the people paying them money let it matter. If everybody stopped buying their albums when they got arrested, things would change in a hurry. Look at the NFL and MLB lately. Marijuana and slapping your girlfriend can ruin your life now. If rap culture was the same way, you'd see most of the negative reviews on here disappear. The rest are political (mostly because conservatives hate black culture), even though it's not a political documentary.
