Will Smith Joins In Drake Attack On Meek Mill
By Michael Cerio
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Et tu Fresh Prince?
Will Smith is the latest to get involved in the ongoing battle between Drake and Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill. The appearance of Philly's biggest star capped off a weekend full of Meek Mill mockery.
During Drake's OVO Fest in Toronto, Drake pulled out all the stops, including wearing a "Free Meek Mill" t-shirt.

Drake changed clothes for his set, but continued the assault with a performance of his two Mill diss tracks and a series of memes mocking the rapper. https://twitter.com/TheSmarmyBum/status/628378939233169409

Images from a coffin, to a milk carton featuring Meek Mill's face, to tweets laughing at Mill all blazed from the Toronto stage. It was enough to set social media on fire, but the most brutal blow was still to come.
Philadelphia's Will Smith joined Drake on stage at the OVO Fest, another shot to the hometown of Meek Mill. A symbolic invite that was only made worse by backstage video showing Smith laughing along at supposed Meek Mill memes with Drake and Kanye West.

After last week's promotion of Joe Carter's soul crushing home run against the Phillies by Drake, and now convincing Will Smith to be by his side in Toronto, there's no telling home much worse this feud can get. Are we a day away from Bradley Cooper and the Phanatic dancing to Drake songs in Canada? Will Stallone and Jerry Blavat share a Tastykake while listening to Drake's latest diss track? When does this madness end?
For his part, Meek Mill has been relatively quiet since dropping his "Wanna Know" response last week. His last tweet is still just the letter "Z" from July 29th.

And Meek's latest Instagram post is promoting teeth cleaning. Because nothing says "ready for battle" like molars.
Will Meek Mill turn up the heat when his tour with Nicki Minaj comes to town this Thursday? Will Mike Myers make an appearance in response? Did Will Smith lose his mind at customs? Did you think OVO was a type of olive oil too?
All these questions will soon have answers, as the saga continues between Meek Mill and Drake.
