Meek Mill Expresses Interest in Buying TikTok Amid Potential U.S. Ban-OXYGIST

American rapper Meek Mill has publicly announced his interest in acquiring TikTok, the popular social media platform, amidst its looming ban in the United States.


The development comes as TikTok faces an uncertain future following a law signed by President Joe Biden in April 2024. The legislation mandated ByteDance, TikTok’s Chinese parent company, to either sell the platform or shut it down by January 19, 2025.


In December 2024, TikTok filed an appeal at the U.S. Supreme Court after its CEO, Shou Zi Chew, met with President-elect Donald Trump. During a press conference, Trump acknowledged having a "soft spot" for the platform and stated that his administration would weigh its options regarding the app's fate, including the possibility of a ban.


As ByteDance awaits the Supreme Court's decision, Meek Mill has thrown his hat into the ring as a potential buyer. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the rapper posted, "Sell TikTok to me," and hinted at alternative platforms, adding, “If they cut off TikTok, we going [to] X and Fanbase.”
