Meek Mill's currently on the roading promoting Championships on "The Motivation" tour which touched down in New York City last night. The Philly rapper's been spending a lot of his time out there recently to the point that he should've mastered the Milly Rock by now. During his performance in NYC, the rapper made sure to give his fans a show to remember and brought out a Brooklyn legend along with Philadelphia's most enigmatic figure.

Lil Uzi Vert came out of retirement for the night to help make Philadelphia's presence heard in Hammerstein Ballroom with Meek Mill. Uzi popped out on stage to perform his single, "XO Tour Llif3" as well as Meek Mill's "Dreams & Nightmares Intro." Although Lil Uzi Vert didn't mention anything about any new music during the show, he got on Instagram Live en route to Hammerstein Ballroom and said that he wanted to leak Eternal Atake on Soundcloud. The rapper's previously expressed his issues with his label but we're hoping they work things out and we get some new music from Uzi. 

Fabolous also made a cameo during Meek Mill's concert last night. Fab surprised the hometown crowd, pulling up out of the blue to perform his verse on Meek Mill's "Uptown Vibes." Unfortunately, Anuel AA wasn't in the building to perform his verse of the track.
