James Harden Visits Meek Mill In Prison: “His Spirits Is High”
HOUSTON, Texas – Houston Rockets star James Harden is among the celebrities voicing support for Meek Mill amid the rapper’s controversial imprisonment.
Harden spent the day after the team’s Christmas Day loss in Oklahoma City to visit Mill, whose real name is Robert Rihmeek Williams.
In an Instagram story post, Harden said, “Got a chance to see my bro @meekmill today. His spirit is high and hopefully we can get him out by February.”
In November, the 30-year-old Mill began serving a two-to-four-year prison sentence in Pennsylvania for his fifth violation of his probation that originated with drug and weapon counts when he was 19.
The controversy stems on whether the sentence was excessive. Advocates argued Mill was unfairly sentenced for comparatively non-violent charges. In addition, both Mill’s lawyers and prosecutors recommended against the sentence. Sports Illustrated, also on Tuesday, reported that Harden plans to wear a pair of his signature Adidas sneakers with a “Free Meek” message on them during the Rockets’ game in Boston on Thursday night.[tps_footer][/tps_footer]

Steve Blacknell – TV face, radio voice, rock PR, and the man who dated Kate Bush – is dropping his bombshell memoir Tales From The Bedroom Wall on July 9th, and it is everything. The highs? Concorde with Phil Collins to Live Aid. MTV fame. Hanging with Alice Cooper, Lemmy, and David Cassidy – often in hot tubs or backstage chaos. The lows? Addiction. Broken hearts. A speedboat explosion!
His rollercoaster love life includes a marriage to iconic ‘60s groupie Catherine James, who once lived with Mick Jaggerand was Eric Clapton’s muse. But it’s not just name-dropping. Blacknell opens up about his bulimia, lost fortunes, and his long, winding path back to the love of his life, Maggie.
With a foreword from Bill Wyman and stories that read like a rockumentary on steroids, this memoir is as outrageous and addictive as the man himself.
Available July 9th from Old Treacle Press. Rock on.
