Meek Mill and JAY-Z's Roc Nation have partnered with Amazon to develop a new documentary series focusing on the criminal justice system. The six-part project will center around Meek's life, including his lengthy probation and recent release from prison, Deadline reports.

Meek Mill has been on probation on drug and weapons charges dating back to 2007. Just last week he became a free man once again, following a five-month stint in prison.

Scheduled to premiere on Amazon Prime in 2019, the yet-to-be-titled series will in turn "put the spotlight on Meek’s life, giving unprecedented access to the star’s life, career, and criminal justice odyssey, while demonstrating the negative effects long tail probation is having on urban communities of color," says Deadline.

Shawn Carter, Eli Holzman, Aaron Saidman, Paul and Isaac Solotaroff have been tapped to executive produce the project.

Roughly a week ago Dateline NBC teased its new interview with Meek Mill, in which he stated, "I don't feel free."
