Master P Responds to Wack 100 Saying “Stop Tearing Each Other Down!”

On a recent “Clubhouse” session, Wack 100 talked about Master P, proclaiming to all the listeners the artist/entrepreneur is broke. However, “The Founder of No Limit Records” did not feel what Wack 100 put into the atmosphere so, he went on social media to respond to the claims.

Master P. (Percy Miller) Addresses Wack 100 Head-on.

Master P had a message, and getting it across was his goal. The statement read like this,

“BROKE is a mindset. Hate is a disease.”

That is dead on!

Wack 100 Proves Not all Motivations are Positive.

The actions of Wack 100 were purposeless. What did he stand to gain by putting Master P’s business on blast? Whether the artist is now impoverished or not shouldn’t matter because that’s Miller’s life. What is important is what he poured into the community with his accumulated resources.

Why did “Wack 100” come for Master P.?

According to a source, the “Make ‘Em Say Ugh” artist ignited this flame. How? Wack 100 was responding to a conversation Miller had with Nick Cannon. Presumably, “Wack 100,” took issue with Master P trying to give Nick Cannon advice,

“You can’t even stand with this man on a bad day. Who is you, bro, to be telling this n-gga about his business decisions, and your business decisions ain’t been right for damn near 20 years!?” he said.

Despite this sentiment, there is still no righteous rationale for the hate. Why does Cannon and Master P’s relationship matter to them in the big scheme of things? The artist addressed this directly as well,

“@nickcannon is my brother from another mother; we’ve got a lot of love and respect for each other.”

Master P. Identifies the Root of the Issue!

Master P recognizes the place Wack 100’s sentiments stem from so he addressed the vitriol with this statement,

“As a culture, we have to stop comparing, self-hating, and tearing each other down. Let’s educate and empower the next generation!”

He is one hundred percent right.

If we hope to grow as a community, we must come together. Our sincerest hope is that Miller’s message connects with people who will push change. Let’s work to make the hip-hop community a force to be reckoned with, rather than an object of mockery and scorn.

Master P Announces No Limit Reunion Tour; Wack 100 Claims He’s Broke

Master P and his record label, No Limits Records, were very famous in the 90s. He and the artists that were attached to the label are going on a reunion tour. Legendary artists  Silkk The Shocker, Mystikal, Mia X, Fiend, and more, are expected to hit the stage.This is in the midst of a rumor that he is currently broke.

The No Limit Reunion Tour begins on February 4 and as of January 19, ends on May 21. There is also a postponed concert planned for Gary, Indiana whose date still needs to be determined. All of the concerts are in southern states, and one in Nebraska. The newest addition to the tour is New Orleans on April 22. Tickets are currently for sale.

Wack 100 claims Master P is broke

Wack 100 has recently appeared on Clubhouse and claims that Master P is currently broke. This is not the first time that he had said something controversial. It is a massive stretch. He is basing all of this through Master P not releasing new music for a while. Wack does not know that P has several streams of passive incomes. He has several movies and tv shows on streaming platforms. In 2020, he has also started a food product brand. Forbes is calling Master P the 6th richest rapper in the world with $200 million, richer than Drake’s $185 million.

It is understandable where the confusion lies. Publicly, he may have gathered that No Limits Records was forced to close due to bankruptcy. It is also possible he uncovered an article from 2014 where Master P’s ex-wife took over $178 million in the their divorce. Simply looking up P’s net worth may have skewed his logical direction. The validity of the article is questionable seeing it is from 2014.

All in all his conclusion that Nick Cannon’s approximate $30 million, is worth more than Master P, is false.
