Meek Mill has received an apology from Las Vegas’ the Cosmopolitan Hotel for the threatening to arrest him.
The rapper claimed he was a victim of racial discrimination and promised to sue if the Cosmopolitan didn't apologize,. After days of denials of any wrongdoing, however, the hotel acquiesced - issuing a formal apology on Friday, May 31st:
“We apologize to Meek Mill for how we handled the situation on Saturday, May 25, as we did not act in a respectful manner and were wrong,” reads public the statement. “Meek Mill has not had any prior incident on our property. The Cosmopolitan has zero tolerance for discrimination and we pride ourselves on providing an inclusive environment. We look forward to welcoming Meek Mill back to the resort.”
Meek’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, reveals his client accepted the apology and no longer plans to sue the hotel.
