Meek Mill's trip to Ghana has been wild.  He had his phone stolen (and returned.) He had to fight his way out of a crowd. And he played some music.

He also shot a video at the Jubilee House, which is the Ghanian equivalent of the White House and the country's most secure area.

The fact that Meek was allowed to film there rubbed some folks in the African nation the wrong way.



"Meek Mill really shot a music video at Jubilee House? This is the lowest point we can get as a country What happened to “Jubilee House is a security zone” Even American Embassy in Ghana, you can’t take pictures and Ghana  allows Jubilee House to become studio. We are FINISH," typed a Ghanian on Twitter.

"All those responsible for this despicable desecration of the Jubilee House by Meek Mill must be fired immediately. How do those explicit lyrics from the president’s lectern project Ghana positively? Is Ghana’s seat of government no longer a high security installation," typed another.

Meek has apologized for the faux pas and deleted the video.


"To the people of Ghana no video I drop is ever meant to disrespect the people of Ghana …. The fastest way to make connection is thru music and I wanted to do that with displaying art … im in my 30’s from America and didn’t know much about the lifestyle here," Meek typed. "My apologies to the people if any disrespect! We still gonna push to make the connection between black people in America and Africa … what I’m trying to do is more than a video and you should see coming soon! My apologies to the the office also!"

Here is the video in question.
