Roll with the tank or get ran over
He was wack when he was a relevant rapper. Don't get me started on Silk lol
It's not that he gets a "pass" it's that it's understood that he's irrelevant and nobody cares....
Now when he WAS relevant that nikka was Diddy levels of entrepreneurship/hustling hell maybe even more, dude had his OWN movie studio. It wasn't like he was an actual "rapper" who was biting Pac while simultaneously claiming Goat. He was a popular personality who happened to have a small ability to rap and put on nikkas who COULD rap.

stop talking about Jay-Z like that
Young/Nacho\Drawz
...come on let's picture the possibility...
- Lil Romeo came out before Lil Bow Wow? Link?a lot of this is misinformation and you pushing your personal opinion.
- master p put the lil soldiers out long before bow wow so
- everybody lies about their sales dog. I hate to break the news to you.
- "bout it" was the 1st of its kind. what are you talking about?
- master p didn't put new Orleans hip-hop on the map? lol. mystikal was the first to really blow from N.O. and there were minor dudes before him, but none of them really put the city on the map. I was a mystikal fan off that 1st joint, but I didn't know where that nucca was from and didn't care.
- as for the biting, P never claimed to be an emcee. hes a businessman/hustler. and just about all the rappers that he bit or borrowed from are cool with him and did tracks with him. you can tell dude is more of a fan and basically just makes his own versions of his favorites songs at the time. there are instances where hes really biting tho, but a lot of that chit is overblown.
and last but most importantly, they made some legendary music and when they were at their peak, they were all about supply-n-demand and giving the people what they want.
if you really are up on no limit, then you know that what master p did was amazing, whether you like dude or not. it shouldn't be rocket science.
- I don't think so. I don't have a problem with him using shipped albums and promoting them as sales. I just don't see how everyone acts like he really sold that amount blindly.
- According to Mannie Fresh, Cash Money already was using the Bout it slang.
One year before P's Bout It dropped. Go to youtube and read the first two comments.
- I won't push whether or not he put N.O. on the map, I'll give him that now that I think about it.
- He was never a Emcees, no kidding! That's why I don't get the love, thanks for confirming that he's not and that he is a biter. THE Two MAJOR no-no's in Hip Hop.
- They did make SOME good music but most of it was garbage. Also, I'm not talking in past tense here about P. Everything he did I have a problem with then he is still doing now. For instance before he hooked with Alley he tried to re-launch no limit for the 1000th time and was copying YMCB.
Judging by these responses I can see that as long as someone makes money you'll give them a pass. I can't say there is nothing wrong with that but from a standpoint of the art it's sickening to see.

Biggest baddest boss
a pass? people let him have it over that,i was very vocal IN real life bout this. i became a fan of his hustle and perspective on life and owning our shyt, plus he called pac the goat, no beef no more
There is so much wrong with post its ridiculous
he did put New Orleans, and to be honest, the South back in the mainstream
he did sell that many records
he was the first to mainstream rappers dropping their own movies
he did make that much money as he caked off priority and really owned his own company
he put lots of dudes in houses and gave releases to dudes who would have never released anything
if the Ice Cream man shyt was truly stolen, how come Yuk and them didn't really go after P on some street shyt? Because even Yuk knew that you don't fukk with P...
....Master P is the best hustler is the game, period.
I got 99 Ways to Die Playin in da whip....
Man that album KNOCKS! People sleep on the pre-TRU-True P...99 Ways 2 Die the song and Dead Presidents set the stage

How U Luv That???
P didn't get a pass in the 90's No Limit just had one of the strongest cult fanbases of all time. To the mainstream/commercial world of hip hop in the mid-late 90's Master P was a joke. If there was twitter back then they would have got the same treatment that YMCMB does today.
