Things aren’t looking too good for Meek Mill in his fight to be allowed to travel for work. The Philly rapper filed a request to have his traveling restrictions lifted, and was denied.
A judge decided that the 25-year-old is not allowed to tour, or perform, except in the event that he’s doing charity work. Meek filed the request late last week, and during his probation hearing Monday, Common Court Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley showed him no mercy. “You need to get yourself together,” she said.
Noting his previous violation of her order to halt performing as of Nov. 16, Brinkley served him with a cold harsh slice of reality. “Christmas is dead for him,” Brinkley added. “You are going to be home for Christmas and New Year’s.”
The young father’s legal issues stem from gun and drug offenses that could have put him behind bars for up to a decade.

Rapper The Game recently released his fifth studio album Jesus Piece, and instead of receiving praise, the record has stirred up drama.
News Channel contributor, blogger and columnist Michelle Malkin has been critical of the album cover art, calling it “blasphemous.”
On her Twitchy website the question was asked: “Would The Game dare to do to Allah what he did to Jesus Christ? Just asking, though we already know the answer.”
Since the reporter has attacked the album cover, the L.A. rapper has responded saying that Malkin is racist and that God can be portrayed in any form because no one has seen him.
In a recent interview he said, “however you depict him in your own mind, or your own visions through your artwork, or through your religion, that’s all on you and it’s not my place to hate on that.”
