According to Variety, Meek Mill has formed a "strategic partnership focusing on the next wave of cultural leaders" with talent agency WME. It was also revealed that WME will represent Meek "in all areas" following the news of him leaving his Roc Nation management deal.
The news of Meek's new initiative, Culture Currency, was announced on Thursday (August 11), in a statement, which says it was "designed to expand Meek’s business while identifying and supporting his network of artists, athletes, and entertainers so that they can take better advantage of their influence on culture, and open up more opportunities for them within the entertainment, brand and business space."
Meek also commented on the news, stating, "The partnership between WME and Culture Currency is a strategic hybrid structure that will bring resources and opportunities to entertainers. I have grown and learned the business in an unorthodox way that is effective through relationships built on talent and creativity. As an entertainer, I see us as part of the first generation that truly has influence and connections spread throughout social justice, music, sports, the movie industry, politics, business and the tech world. Taking advantage of this opportunity will allow us to give others the same chance to catch their dreams. Thank you WME for opening the door to build this bridge."
