EXCLUSIVE

Robert Kraft[1] is definitely scoring points with the rap community after visting Meek Mill[2] in prison ... with Method Man[3] telling us he SALUTES the Patriots owner for the move. 

Oh, and while Meth is explaining why he respects the move ... THERE'S A FISTFIGHT GOING DOWN RIGHT BEHIND HIM!! 

Meth was leaving DJ Whoo Kid's "The Whoolywood Shuffle" show at the SiriusXM building in NYC when a pissed off woman and a pissed off man started brawling right on the sidewalk. 

But aside from the fight ... Meth had an interesting take on the Kraft situation[4] -- and blasted the critics who've chalked the whole thing up to a shameless publicity stunt.
