“Blessings.. I got “the Nelson Mandela humanitarian award” Thank you Rip to the great Nelson Mandela. I ain’t grow up playing ball I had a smith & western* because where I’m from it’s very hard to turn 27 #survivors@pttow” wrote Meek Mill.

In celebration of the achievement, Meek dropped a video for his new track “Mandela Freestyle” Friday. A snippet from Thursday’s presentation serves as the opening to Meek’s new video. The voice-over says: “The Nelson Mandela changemaker award recognizes individuals who are carrying on Mr. Mandela’s legacy across one of the following key pillars — social equity through activism, community- and nation-building, protection and education of children and youth. So today, we honor Robert ‘Meek Mill’ Williams for carrying on President Mandela’s legacy.”
