Certz Up ..... Hoezzzz down .....
since the wale thread went plat .
Master P is sharing his side of the story behind his business relationship with Fat Trel and why the Washington, D.C., repper wasn't a good fit for No Limit Records.

Last week Trel told MTV News that "things weren't done correctly" on the business side and that he and P have "no relationship." This week, P released a statement to AllHipHop.com to explain why the situation crumbled and denied that No Limit didn't fulfill their end of the bargain.

Trel and his Louis V Mob partner, Alley Boy, dropped a New World Order mixtape with Master P last February. "What didn't go right?" questioned P. "I didn't have any business deal with Trel, we only did a mixtape. We had no other business but I wish him the best of luck."


The No Limit mastermind claims he "went above and beyond" for Trel, took him "out of a negative environment" and covered him financially, but the rapper was a little too focused on money. "Fat Trel is a good rap artist but the No Limit Forever brand is about building entrepreneurs and business partners," he started. "When I was around Fat Trel, he was in a rush to getting a check and a record deal versus being patient and building his own to be a true boss. I even spoke with his manager and told him that this was not an overnight process."

P continued, "I'm not in the business of signing artists, this second go round I want to help all of my artists/partners to become their own boss but that requires sacrifice and hard work if you want to make millions. I’m not just cutting checks and taking care of artists anymore. No Limit Forever is a real independent company, this is not just a write-off for us."

The New Orleans native winds up the statement on mostly positive notes, reiterating that he "believed in" Trel's talents but admits to being blindsided by him signing to Maybach Music. "I admit I was surprised when I heard that he did a deal with Wale because I thought they didn't like each other. But I wish him the best with MMG, I think it's a better fit for him as an artist."

Trel hasn't slowed down after the No Limit fallout. He recently dropped the mixtape Gleesh and, even though his mind isn't in "album mode" yet, the DMV spitter told BET.com that being with MMG is a good fit. "I'm just taking it one day at a time. Whatever [Rick] Ross say we gotta do, that's what's going on," he said.

"Check out the full statement below:

“Fat Trel is a good rap artist but the No Limit Forever brand is about building entrepreneurs and business partners. When I was around Fat Trel, he was in a rush to getting a check and a record deal versus being patient and building his own to be a true boss. I even spoke with his manager and told him that this was not an overnight process. I’m not in the business of signing artists, this second go round I want to help all of my artists/partners to become their own boss but that requires sacrifice and hard work if you want to make millions. I’m not just cutting checks and taking care of artists anymore. No Limit Forever is a real independent company, this is not just a write-off for us. And if you’re a real street dude, you would appreciate me for what I’ve already done for you and your family. I went above and beyond for Fat Trel. I took him out a negative environment, got him a safe place to stay in Los Angeles, transportation, put money in his pocket, paid for plane tickets and hotels for him and his team, got him exposure, put him on music with me and all without a contract just because I believed in the little homie. And I told his mother that I would do my best to help him. I admit I was surprised when I heard that he did a deal with Wale because I thought they didn’t like each other. But I wish him the best with MMG, I think it’s a better fit for him as an artist.

Alley Boy is my partner. We built a real relationship. He’s a real stand-up street guy, he understands loyalty and respect. It ain’t just about music with us, we thug it out no matter what. He still has his own business Duck Tape Records. We’re working on new music projects with No Limit Forever and movies. The movement continues

and also fat trel considers himself a sex idol and a slutty boy so that might not coagulate with the alley boy/ no limit mystique

Can't blame Trel for going and getting an actual deal. The way Master P described it made No Limit Forever sound more like a pyramid scheme than a record label. If you wanna scrape your cut off the top w/o putting real bread in the artists hands, go be an agent.

And he'd prolly make the same amount, on both.

I think that's the point of P's quote. You rush to get that quick check, but, a million strings are attached.

Grind and you can get that same money and keep it.

a rapper signing with Master P in 2014 is like an athlete doing an endorsement deal with G-Unit Clothing in 2014, get all the way the fukk outta here. master p was hustlin somethin serious when his label was on fire but why would rappers take advice from a man who dresses like a circus ringmaster and throws birthday parties on WCW Monday Nitro? he made madd stupid decisions that made his reign shorter than it had to be, i'd be cautious of following that guy's lead if i was a young artist.
