As Sean “P. Diddy” Combs continues to face mounting legal troubles, shockwaves are being felt across the entertainment world — and now, rapper Meek Mill is taking drastic action to clear his own name from the swirling speculation.

On Wednesday morning, Meek Mill took to social media with a bold and unexpected announcement: he’s offering a $100,000 reward to any independent investigator or legal expert who can “definitively prove” he has no involvement or connection to the federal investigation surrounding Combs.

“I got nothing to hide,” Meek wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “But if people wanna play games with my name, I’m putting my OWN money up to clear it.”

Why the Sudden Move?

The dramatic offer comes just days after Sean “Diddy” Combs was taken into federal custody, prompting a wave of online rumors, unverified reports, and so-called “guest lists” that allegedly connect several music industry figures — including Meek Mill — to past private events hosted by Combs.

While no formal charges or allegations have been made against Meek, the rapper’s name was trending alongside Diddy’s on social media platforms over the weekend after a resurfaced photo of the two appeared online, taken at a 2018 industry retreat.

“That picture ain’t a crime,” Meek later said on Instagram Live. “I’ve been in rooms with hundreds of people — don’t mean I know what somebody else is doing behind closed doors.”\

The $100K Challenge

According to Meek’s team, the $100,000 will be awarded to “any licensed investigator, journalist, or legal analyst” who can publicly and verifiably demonstrate that Meek Mill is in no way legally or ethically tied to any of the accusations aimed at Diddy.

His attorney, Marcus Fields, added in a press statement:

“This is a matter of integrity. Mr. Williams (Meek Mill) is committed to standing in truth. He will not be dragged down by guilt by association.”

The reward offer has already drawn the attention of several independent legal analysts and investigative journalists, some of whom have said they will begin digging through timelines and records to provide clarity — and possibly claim the reward.

Industry Response

Reactions from fellow artists and industry insiders have been mixed.

Rick Ross reposted the news with  emojis and the caption: “Stand tall, lil bro.”
A producer close to Meek reportedly said, “This ain’t even about guilt — it’s about Meek taking control of the narrative. He’s tired of being used as clickbait.”

Meanwhile, others say the move is a risky gamble, potentially drawing even more attention to the association rather than diffusing it.

“When you offer a six-figure reward, people start to wonder if there’s more to the story,” said entertainment analyst Tasha Legrand. “But maybe that’s the point — he wants the world to really look and see that there’s nothing there.”

Clearing His Legacy

For Meek Mill, whose career has been shaped by a long public battle over justice reform and wrongful incarceration, this moment feels especially personal.

“I’ve been judged before, and I had to fight to get my life back,” Meek said in his livestream. “This time, I’m not waiting for anyone to give me peace. I’m buying my truth.”

As Diddy’s legal troubles unfold, it’s unclear how far-reaching the investigation will go — but one thing is certain: Meek Mill is not going to sit quietly while his name is dragged through the mud.

And with $100,000 on the table, he’s daring the world to find the facts — and prove them.
