Big Meech Slams "Power" As Lil Meech Feuds With Michael Rainey Jr. & Gianni Paolo
A beef brews between Starz actor, Lil Meech of BMF and the Power universe’s Michael Rainey Jr, who plays Tariq. Over the weekend, Lil Meech and Rainey Jr. began to trade barbs surrounding the success of their respective shows. Though 50 Cent pointed out the tension last year following the debut of BMF, he reignited the feud over the weekend once he praised Rainey. Meech reposted Fif’s photo, writing, “I’m working on being immortal @50cent these guys still mortal… Let’s go to lunch later I’ll give you some free game @michaelraineyjr.”
Lil Meech’s commentary launched into a war of words between him and members of the Power cast including Rainey and Gianni Paolo. Rainey called Meech a “beginner” while calling BMF “dead.” While he said that three BMF spin-offs were coming to overshadow the Power universe, he also slammed Rainey’s career. “U been acting since u was 12 years old… This is my 3rd year and it’s already looking scary for u,” he wrote. Paolo then brought up Meech’s gun arrest. “Boy u sound like the police ft u need a new job…. They not paying u enough to tell,” Meech replied.
Black Mafia Family’s Big Meech Reviews Power
It appears that Big Meech continues to tune into Power just as much as he’s watching BMF. The Black Mafia Family co-founder called his son following the feud with the Power cast and it’s quite clear which show he prefers. Though there’s an evident bias, he took issue with Rainey’s character, Tariq. He explained that Tariq has little to show for his hustle except for paying money to his attorney, played by Method Man. “He ain’t got a car, he ain’t got an apartment. He got nothing on the show,” Meech said over the phone. “He always in trouble on the show. Like, who the f*ck wanna go to college and be like him?”
Ultimately, it seems like Big Meech doesn’t respect Tariq as a hustler, though he did emphasize that he’s a fan of Power. Meech’s criticism comes from the place of a fan who watches the show regularly. However, he made it clear that Power can’t touch BMF. “It can’t be!” Meech said when his son stated that the Power cast believes Ghost is superior to BMF. “We know it’s fiction but… this dude is a college dude hustlin’ in 2022-2023 and he ain’t got nothin’. He got the feds all over his ass all the time… all you got is a hard time to go.” Check out Big Meech’s hilarious response above.
