Will Hip Hop ever see anyone do it as big as Percy Miller?

You know why. When a black man owns and runs a legal operation of that magnitude, white folks start hating. Happened with Motown as well.

Today, there are no more moguls of the younger generation. Most of them just happy with puccy and the 360 show money. No ambition, just a bunch of lost niccas.

They didn't stop until they had the catalogs for no limit and death row back under their control.

Lil Romeo is a multi millionaire. Master P was really about putting his people on. P ain't broke. He got like 3 houses in LA alone. And I'm sure many others across the country. Do you know P was the first dude up on LIONS GATE. His film deal was ridiculous, those little hood DVDs sold like crazy. p never spent his own money on that. He made a killing with Lionsgate. 50 basically doing what Master P did with Lionsgate, but taking it to a much higher level.

What a lot of people don't know is 50 is making a killing off the movie game. Lots of times it's not even movies he stars in. 50 got 200 million dollars fronted to him on the movie side and partnered with EMMETT/FURLA who also raised 250 million from investors for production. What they doing is fronting the production budgets for a lot of big pictures. For example 50 fronted money on the 2 GUNS movie with Wahlberg and Denzel. Then they pre-sale the film before it ever goes into production to foreign territories and recover 75 percent of their investment before the movie is even shot. Universal is just distributing the movie but CURTIS JACKSON (exec producer) and EMMETT/FURLA films pays for it. And they get a good chunk of profit from the box office. They just pic projects with A-LIST talent already attached to lower their risk on investments and to be able to pre-sale to foreign buyers ( who want stars to sell the picture to their countries) CURTIS JACKSON and EMMETT/FURLA also help fund that new BROKEN CITY with WAHLBERG & RUSSEL CROWE

50 on same gangsta shyt in the movie game. I respect him.

No limit had an album out damn near every other week. I admit I bought few of them just because they had the no limit tank on the album cover:


Mr.Serv-on
Kane and Abel
Sons of funk
Young bleed
Fiend
Soulja Slim
Skull Duggery
Magic

:snoop:

most of their work wasn't really good, but I respect P hustle.

There seriously needs to be a documentary on dude cause I know there is a lot people can learn about his hustle and tact.

Keep in mind, this man was independent for the most part and still made more than half a billion dollars. No to mention he made a P Miller version of everything that was hot at the time. P Miller throwbacks was booty juice but they sold.

His movies had product placement through out the entire cast. He had school principles wearing P Miller in the movies Lil Romeo was in.
