African American Rapper Meek Mill reclaims his African heritage as his Ancestry result reveals he is from several west African countries. According to the DNA test results from ancestry.com, the American rapper is 21% from Benin and Togo, 18% from Ghana and Ivory Coast, 18% from Nigeria, 14% from Cameroon, Congo, and West Bantu People, 8% from Mali, and 5% from Senegal.
Meek Mill has visited Ghana for the first time in December 2022 and he shared his excitement about the visit. Apart from expressing his interest to buy a home in Ghana, Meek also visited Nana Addo at the presidency and promised to be committed to the country’s development.
Shortly after, videos surfaced showing Meek arriving in the West African country with his entourage, heading to the club at 3 a.m. and not leaving until 7 a.m.
“Young Kings,” he wrote on Instagram. “came to club at 3am left and 7am on 12 o clock! #ghanalit they been keeping us from Africa huh lol my come thru be wayyyyyyyyyyyy different.”
Meek’s celebratory visit to Ghana comes days after the judge who handed him a two-to-four-year prison sentence in 2017 was stripped of her cases and accused of ethical misconduct.
