When you get a legend in multiple games like Master P in the studio, you got to cover pretty much everything. The mogul and New Orleans legend sits in with The Madd Hatta Morning Show and breaks down countless items from Zion Williamson landing with his hometown Pelicans, how he treats work ethic as something more powerful than money, his celebrity crush on Ellen Degeneres, the upcoming sequel to I Got The Hook Up 2 and what would 20-year-old P do if he had social media.



“I would have sold a billion records,” he said matter of factly. “With social media and the work ethic I have?”

Watch the full interview below!



Master P: “If I Had Social Media At 20, I Would Have Sold A Billion Records” [EXCLUSIVE]

 

[Ethnic Cleansing]

When will Master P realize that The No Limit Era was a fad and that he's washed

 

[Da King]

And he’s got social media now and can’t sell 10 records

 

[Doobie Doo]

And he’s got social media now and can’t sell 10 records

 

[DaddyFresh]

No social media probably helped P more then anything. He probably would have been caught with a tranny, chain taken or just beaten and ended his career. Add the fact nobody locally would be checking him like that when you can go online and hear music from all over the world instantly.

 

[Let A Fro Be A Fro]

Even in the post-Napster era, sales were declining. Now with Bit Torrent and streaming, even top acts have a difficult time going just 1 or 2 times platinum.

U can laugh at him now, but if you were there for the NL heyday and how ppl, myself included would just cop shyt just because it had the Tank on it....in my opinion I'd say he's not far off

 

[Gravity]

That comment alone shows that he doesn't even understand social media.

 

[El Bombi]

And he would've got billion records bootlegged as well.


Master P should just be happy that No Limit hit its peak right before the CD Burnning Era.

Because when the CD Burnning Era started. No Limit was already fading away.

his celebrity crush on Ellen Degeneres,

i guess he'd sell that billion marketing himself as a gay artist.

 

[The ADD]

I see what he means but the same things that make social media so powerful also fly in the face of large album sales.

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

will always respect his hustle.

 

[El Bombi]

U can laugh at him now, but if you were there for the NL heyday and how ppl, myself included would just cop shyt just because it had the Tank on it....in my opinion I'd say he's not far off

But the thing is you can't just isolate the technology of this social media era and not include how easy it is to illegally download albums today as well.

No Limit benefited off the time it existed. IN 96 the South was solo because major labels wasn't fukking with them. No limit, Cash Money, Suave House, Rap-A-Lot, Swisher House etc. And literally every nikka that started these labels got paper (Master P, Baby, Tony Draper, J Prince, DJ 5000)


I mean you got nikkas like Lil Yachty going viral on accident that P would have ot compete with

"How ya wanna play it P?"
