"Sharing Locations" is a song by American rapper Meek Mill featuring fellow American rappers Lil Baby and Lil Durk. It was released on August 27, 2021, through Atlantic Records and Maybach Music Group, as the second single from Meek Mill's fifth studio album Expensive Pain. The song was produced by Nick Papz, KJ, Svdominik, and Xander and it contains a sample of "Chichovite Konie" by Filip Kutev's choir.
