Birdman said Master p wasn't a gangster but a basketball player

Mac has a podcast and he was talking about P. He said he thought P was from California, they didn’t really know him like that. It didn’t sound like he was being hateful or cross, but there’s probably some truth to it
This was the late 80s/early 90s and P and his brothers was sent to Northern California.
May as well have been in China.
That’s why his story is all over and it seem like he popped up outta nowhere.
He’s a hustler plain and simple.

Master P knew that being a gangster would lead to either prison or death….
He’s one of the few black CEOs that didn’t act a fool(no pun intended) once he got success.
He’s the guy that Jay-Z and Puff wanted to be.

We not changing history. P was a gangsta I know this for a fact when he was in Richmond he was. Also met him a couple of times. Never came off as just a basketball player to me

No tf it wasn’t
Cash Money dont got an album better than Ice Cream Man or Ghetto (aside from maybe Chopper City In The Ghetto and Checkmate)
Master P was a ball player and hustler who was friends with goons
Birdman was a kingpin before he hit drinking age and had numerous crashouts under his command
Two different leagues
Birdman is also the better businessman. Master P is overrated as a businessman and did a lot of janky shyt that people rebrand as good business bc of nostalgia. Theres a reason Birdman has outlasted Master P by like 20 years

Master P one of the coldest nikkas to ever live to me
To make it at the highest form of rap, basketball and business - I don’t think we’ll see anything like that again. A very unique talent and the ultimate hustler

Does it matter who had more street cred?
Yeah Yeah birdman was in the streets
But at the end of the day P mind was better than all these rap street nikkas who was getting a nickel per record from these labels

I see this statement is starting to grow legs and folks don't truly understand CMR was running on E
Who was popping for Cash Money in 2002 and 2003? Set it Off, ,Slow Motion (And that was Soulja Slim song, he gave that to Juvi), and In my Life saved them....Lil Wayne threw out a brick with 500 degrees....A strong brick, Mannie Fresh album couldn't save them. Baby had to crawl back to Juvie to help him recoup and stay above water.
Them SQAD mixtapes saved CMR in 2004 along wit the slow burn of The Carter 1.
Let's be real CMR was about to be on No Limit status....

Master P lived a dream life of a black man. Got to be a famous rapper and mogul and played in the NBA.
