Meekz isn’t slowing down, today (Thursday 18th June) unleashing ‘Soulja’, the latest drop from his forthcoming mixtape Mr Can’t Stop Won’t Stop landing next Friday.
Built around sparse piano keys, rolling percussion and Meekz’s signature melodic rap delivery, ‘Soulja’ feels like the emotional centrepiece of the project. Reflecting on mistakes made in his youth, the lessons learned along the way and the ambition that continues to drive him forward, Meekz delivers a deeply personal statement of intent. Honest, reflective and quietly triumphant, it’s a record that captures both the hunger and resilience that have defined his journey so far.
The accompanying visual pulls back the curtain on Meekz’s creative process, taking viewers behind the scenes of the blockbuster video shoot for recent single ‘Can’t Stop Won’t Stop 2’. Featuring tanks, military vehicles, drones and sprawling battlefield sets, the clip highlights the scale of Meekz’s vision while revealing just how hands-on he remains with every aspect of his creative world. It’s a window into the meticulous world-building that continues to set him apart from his peers.
Soldier‘ joins ‘Can’t Stop Won’t Stop 2’ on Mr Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, the long-awaited follow-up to the landmark project that helped cement Meekz as one of the defining voices in British rap. The mixtape sees the Gorton-raised masked avenger revisit the world that made him iconic – but on an even bigger, more cinematic scale. “Can’t stop, won’t stop” isn’t just a mantra – it’s the philosophy that has defined his journey through grief, survival and success.
Driven by resilience, ambition and authenticity, Meekz has built a catalogue rooted in real-life experience – inspired by personal loss, friends lost to violence and prison, and a relentless refusal to give up. That honesty continues across Mr Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, a project that feels both deeply personal and culturally huge. The artwork for the mixtape was created during a late-night painting session with artist Slawn, the pair passing the brush between them until a single image emerged – a reflection of where Meekz sits now, at the intersection of music, art and fashion.
Already co-signed by Dave and Central Cee, with 70M+ streams in 2024, two Official Charts Top 12 projects and standout moments spanning Wireless Festival, Reading and Leeds Festival, Glastonbury Festival and the Brit Awards, Meekz continues to push UK rap into new territory – with vision, scale and creativity that remains entirely unmatched.
