Master P got his money and also got his people some money. :salute::salute:

all while owning his masters, publishing, shytting on these fukk nikkas :salute::salute:


this is one reason why as a NY nikka i got nothing but respect for Southern rap and it's OGs. nikkas were selling records independently with no major labels and some even became millionaires before a major deal.

Todays business model doesnt allow a "Master P" type to succeed in this era


Not with all this:
Gentrification...streaming....lack of indy outlets....deejays r puppets..credit crunch

P had great timing...that era was perfect

Ps strength was not just in liquid cash but sovereignty

Which means ownership of licensing..masters....publishing...and huge equity in mechanical royalties and film

P told them JEWISH HOLLYWOOD EXECS who offered millions to distribute his films to go fukk themselves

Cause he would rather use his own u front money as a budget to partake in greater back end profits and rights

Smart!! :ufdup:

White folks in the entertainment field knew they were dealing with a different type of n1gga

Whom created the business model that would influence CASH MONEY

The 80/20 split in favor of the indy imprint

After that the MUSIC INDUSTRY SAID NO MORE DEALS LIKE THAT :whoa:

Because it empowered these negroes beyond their comprehension

MASTER P. >>>> RUSSELL SIMMONS..DAME DASH...DEE & WAAH....IRV GOTTI....ANDRE HARRELL



them cacs was shook :russ::russ:

Master P taught these nikkas how to get money without needing no cacs but nikkas nowadays will do publicity stunts on IG, tap dance on tables, act mad gay, etc for a record deal that will fukk them over in the long run.

Yall stop dat bullshyt...GUCCI MANE is no where near what MASTER P is as far as a BOSS MOGUL

First off P Came in the game with his own money

While GUCCI had to rely on HB to buy him everything from his jewlery to his draws when he had to "run" from them boys from another label down in Savannah whom he robbed...... :whistle: :mjpls:

Jeezy addressed the HB situation on STAY STRAPPED..and GUCCI addressed the ROBBERY and RAMMIFCATIONS on BURRPRINT...

Another thing P owned his own licenscing, masters and label....Gottdamn Gucci signed his masters from his first three albums over to BIG CAT for a Dodge Magnum :dead:

then turnaround and created SO ICEY LABEL only for it to get finessed by WAKA FLOCKA mom whom he had to sue for taking it from him....

MASTER P. owned all his artists and continued to eat off them long after thier prime.....

MIA X....SILK DA SHOCKER...C MURDER,...ROMEO..MAC....SOULJAH SLIM, KANE AND ABEL etc.

while GUCCI spawned all these "children" in the form of YOUNG THUGGA, OJ JUICEMAN, MIGOS, PEE LONGWAY, WAKA, ZAY, MIKE WILL

Yet LYOR COHEN, MS. DEB, CRAIG KALLMAN and TODD MOSCOWITZ and COACH K got the rights to them and made more money off of them than GUCCI ever seen...

MASTER P. didn't need to rely on a gang to do his work or provide muscle...yall know it was P that put that "boy" in that trunk.......

while GUCCI MANE switched sides like THE GAME from CRIP TO BLOOD..i seen it with my own eyes cuzz....... shoutout to Bear and HB... :salute:



so in the end...MASTER P was a real boss with a JOINT VENTURE with the labels in his favor.... :win:

while GUCCI MANE just been SHARECROPPING his entire career....... :manny:

sorry lil kids but your "hero" could never emulate a legend like MASTER P. who made it possible for GUCCI to even have a career :ufdup:

crack_vials_on_white.jpg.w300h450.jpg


i see ghetto dope..fiend, kane n able, snoop n silk album loll
plus he was selling them 2 for 5 style


while everyone was selling cds at 12.99-17.99 depending on where you got them... his shyt was 8.99 for a full 80 min cd on some itunes shyt

thats how i got into P in the first place... went to buy a cd, didn't have the cash... saw ghetto d for sale for 8.99 and bought that shyt... hooked ever since

Ross the closes thing to p right now in terms of keeping his artist music on display & getting nikkas release dates

But p made it all about no limit the brand & didnt promote his artist the traditional way nikkas hardly remember most of them nikkas that released albums

There will never b another p because nobody's getting independent money like that to even broker the type of deal he had

Ain't no more P's. The game ain't the same
Young cats would give up their hand on Twitter ..unintentionally
We desperately need moguls like we had in the 90s/early 2000s
P had everybody looking to the right, he shift to the left
When he made the movie, he shytted on everyone in the game. P from the REAL projects not some apartments. Cut throat and finesse.

Ain't nobody doin that now

Edit: TOOK HIS FOLKS WITH HIM! Cat puttin out albums of his own brothers
:leon:and they can't rap!
