NEW YORK, NY – Meek Mill’s comeback run is bringing him to 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York. The Philly-bred MC is scheduled to make his Saturday Night Live debut on January 26.

SNL announced the booking via social media on Monday (January 14). James McAvoy, one of the stars of the X-Men film franchise, will host the upcoming episode while Meek serves as the musical guest.

Just one year ago, Meek was stuck behind bars serving a controversial sentence for a probation violation. After getting out in April 2018, he went on an impressive run that saw him reignite his rap career and become a vocal activist for criminal justice reform.

Meek’s post-prison success helped him win Comeback of the Year in HipHopDX’s 2018 Year-End Awards. Check out all of the winners here.
