Master P: “Call Me Percy”
“I’m changing my name because Master P is who I used to be. I call it my childhood and P. Miller marks my manhood. I wouldn’t change my past because it’s groomed me to be the man I am today. People grow mentally and spiritually through life experiences, but when you come from hip-hop it’s almost impossible to move past the stereotypes associated with it. I’ve branched out into so many different arenas that range from being the first African-American to have a clothing line at Wal-Mart, to writing books, and speaking on Capitol Hill, but all that gets overshadowed because I come from the hip-hop industry. There’re a lot of people out there, who are afraid to grow up and change, but I’m not and P. Miller is the evolution of me, Percy Miller the entrepreneur, the business man.”

“outgrowed”? Nigga, aren’t you in college? **Slaps iceberg upside the head (none)***
August 13th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
yaaaaaaawn. nigga you aint been relevant since 99
August 13th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Ironic that his clothing line is at Wal-Mart, seeing that’s where the majority of the old No Limit roster is currently employed.

August 13th, 2008 at 1:38 pm
america cant do shit to iran, cant do shit to north korea, cant do shit to russia. their hands are tied right now. how was that part of the plan? and if you think north korea really gave up their nukes youse a new fool
^the plan was to invade iraq, and everyone knows by now it had nothing to do with bin laden yet they did try to connect the two. im not sure what ur talking about, i never said those things u stated were “a part of the plan.” shiet, the plan isnt even to “win” anything in iraq, its to take their resources and maintain a presence in that region. they arent accomplishing shit there, but thats not stopping them from staying is it. so i think they would definitely start shit with iran if it wasnt that the public has figured out by now invading them would be useless.

I can respect what master p is saying.
Everybody isnt or wants to be the person they was 10-12 years ago. It’s freak ho’s out here that don’t wanna be freaks anymore, it was something they did, but in some people eyes, there always gonna be labeled that, there name is always gonna be associated with the word freak at the end, & usually the people that can’t except them for changing are stuck in there 2nd childhood (c) nas. Just because you don’t wanna change, or want them to change, you expect them not to also? that’s selfish

Master P gets some credit, though- I mean, this quote did come from Marketwatch, which means that he’s gained some traction in the business world, right?

Jay-Z does the same thing P is doing, & Jay is a genius, he’s a god to some, but P do it, & he gets joked? I don’t get it
Jay-Z used rap to open other doors for himself. He even started calling himself by his real name, and it’s all good, P do it, it’s a stunt, smh
August 13th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
I been calling him Percy since day 1……FOH.
August 13th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
If you have ever in your life purchased P. Miller gear at Wal Mart, you lost to the nth degree
August 13th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
If he really grew up, he would say “Call me Mr. Miller, LLC.”
August 13th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
yo joe i think ppl are dissing P because they think he be wack on the mic, b
August 13th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
Its ok to change, but the problem lies when master p (icecream man) tries to distance himself from Hip Hop, rather than take a Jay-z/Diddy approach and broaden our appeal, rather than saying “it’s almost impossible to move past the stereotypes associated with it”. You should set the foundation and show those “corporate dollars, what hip hop has taught/earned you. By changing your name and your “view” you are changing why people fell in love with you in the first place, because in all honesty Master P has did nothing on an entertainment global scale than he did with his music.

Want to know something funny bout the invasion in Iraq… since this invasion has happened, the american dollar has fallen, it’s economy is hanging by a thread literally in the hands of the chinese (thank your government for giving away house to people who couldn’t afford them and then selling mortgages to other countries, namely china) and the Iraq resources that the americans were supposed to seize ended up giving Iraq an 80 billion (you read that right) dollar surplus to their economy, so much so that the president of Iraq was walking the streets throwing money to the people… now if that ain’t a slap in the face to the strongest presence on earth, i don’t know what is… American military and government lost

***Yeah, but Jay’s still relevant- an icon, musically and pop culture wise….Master P is a footnote in the story, and he’s just trying to drum up interest in whatever lame ass project he has going on….$20 says he’s doing ads for Eastern Motors in the next 5 yrs…either that, or he’s gonna sell “Make Em Say Uhhhh” to Fibersure (none)

p. miller you funny man. i can’t believe you still doing that same old pen and pixel design with all that fake photoshopped album cover. If your going to change do it all the way and i thought P. Miller wasn’t gangsta anymore he went nickelodeon.
August 13th, 2008 at 10:21 pm
P got paid. Let him live. There’s nothing wrong with having a brand in Walmart, especially if it’s making you money. He’s living by the old adage, “Sell to the masses, live with the classes”.
Get money P.
