December 2016 has been real. The Meek Mill concert shooting is one of many recent tragedies. Atlanta rapper, Yung Mazi was recently shot along with Brooklyn rapper, Troy Ave. Meek Mill was just getting back on his feet after being bullied by Drake earlier this year. The shooting marks yet another obstacle he must overcome.
