nikka shut up

the main point of his deal... was the fact they didn't believe in him for one... they never gave anyone that deal again... and they wouldn't even let him reup on the deal


HE PAID FOR EVERYTHING... they simply made the cds and shipped them.... so yes... if some hood nikka came to me today and said... "i'll put up the money for everyting, you just get the cds made and ship them out and i'll give you 20%" fukk yea i'd take it

they never expected him to have 100k to put up... or go gold on his first album... they knew after the first album they fukked up


again... go off a story vetting by numerous media and the people involved themselves.... or go off internet nikkas who still haven't posted a single FACT and are just guessing


until you post a single FACT that this deal didn't happen... go away


trust me... facts aren't working with this guy

Sounds like a typical P&D deal

have you stated any facts? nope... still waiting

so far it's the word of everyone involved vs a coli nikka...


don't worry... i'll wait... in the meantime... more independent research

In 1992, after Master P’s second album “Mama’s Bad Boy” sold more than 150,000 album independently, he decided to move No Limit Records back to New Orleans in order to make a real run at the label business. By 1994, his third album “The Ghettos Tryin to Kill Me!” sold an unheard of 250,000 units independently and No Limit Records grossed more than $900,000!

Striking It Rich

Pretty soon, all the major record companies came calling. Leveraging his astonishing success as an independent artist, Master P was able to secure an unprecedented deal between No Limit and Priority Records. Not only would No Limit receive a $375,000 advance for every album produced and 75%of the wholesale price for every album sold (the standard at the time for a major artist like Madonna was 25-50%), but at the end of the deal Master P would own every master recording from his entire roster of artists, including himself.

Considering how successful he was as an independent artist without money, marketing or national distribution, perhaps what happened next is not surprising. Master P’s first album for Priority Records “Ice Cream Man” reached #3 on the Billboard charts in 1996 and would eventually go platinum with over 1.7 million copies sold in The US alone. No Limit quickly churned out albums for roster artists like Silkk The Shocker and C-Murder (P’s brothers), Mystikal, Mia X and Steady Mobb’n. By 1997, No Limit had produced more than 8 platinum albums. Between 1997 and 1998, No Limit released nearly 50 albums that often topped various Billboard sales charts. Master P’s 1997 album “Ghetto D”, which featured his most famous song “Make Em’ Say Uhh”, sold 3.2 million copies in The US. The single for “Make Em’ Say Uhh” sold over a million copies.

i mean you act like P is the only one who said it... like a million others haven't agreed... like the news, tv, magazines, newspapers, forbes, source, xxl, bet, cash money, etc.... so many people who reported on this... so many people who would have loved to burst that bubble... so many people, according to you, he never paid

but you the only idiot on the internet thinking it was just made up bullshyt



realize that unlike most of your fav rappers, P actually did have money and had it made BEFORE he ever tried to get a deal

so when he approached them, he didn't need them for shyt... 375k album budgets was shyt... which is why he got all in house prod, shytty covers, plastic cases, cheap videos and sold them joints for 8.99 when cds were selling for 17.99

the deal was unprecedented and you keep running off about how it's not how it works... NO shyt SHERLOCK... that's why he's the only rapper to ever do it and couldn't ever get it again
