Early Life
In New Orleans, Louisiana, Master P was born Percy Miller on April 29, 1970. While New Orleans is well-known for its music, it may not be the kind that he would go on to create. He grew up in the city’s Calliope Projects. With two brothers, Vyshonne and Corey, he was one of four children, all of whom would go on to become successful rap artists.

Some of the most violent housing complexes in New York City are where this family grew up. The years following his parents’ divorce saw him spending time in both New Orleans, where his father’s family was from, and Richmond, California, where his mother’s side of the family was from.
At Booker T. Washington and Warren Easton high schools, he was an avid basketball player who earned a basketball scholarship to the University of Houston. Merrit Junior College in California’s Oakland was where he began his business studies as a freshman.
Career
Choosing just two or three of Master P’s many vocations would be nearly impossible. Many of his sources of income, including his work as an entrepreneur, rapper, and occasional actor have contributed to his net worth.
After the death of his grandfather, he received $10,000 while still living in Oakland. He opened a record shop called No Limit Records with the money he had saved. In 1990, he decided to expand the store into a record label after learning about the preferences of his customers. In 1990, he released “Mind of a Psychopath,” a cassette-only EP. His two brothers joined a supergroup called The Real Untouchables (often abbreviated to TRU) for this release. Kevin, Master P’s other brother, was assassinated in New Orleans the same year.
Since the release of his debut album, Get Away Clean, in 1991, Master P has released and produced music regularly. In the underground gangsta rap scene, he rose to prominence after releasing a few more solo albums and collaborating with TRU. It was 1995 when he decided to relocate the label back to New Orleans, where he was still building his empire. Throughout his career, he’s put out a wide range of albums, each of which has had varying levels of success.

His most famous song, “Make ‘Em Say Uhh!” is featured on the album Ghetto D, which was released during this period. Ghetto D went triple platinum after selling over 265,000 copies in its first week of release. MP Da Last Don was a huge hit in 1998. Over 400,000 copies of the album were sold in its first week on the Billboard charts, making it even more popular than Ghetto D. In addition to the album, Master P also released a film to accompany it. His 10th studio album, Game Face, was released in 2001. In 2004, he put out his eleventh album, “Eleven.”
Several years after Hurricane Katrina, Master P and his son Lil Romeo founded Guitar Music, an independent record label, and released an album dedicated to the victims. The two collaborated on an album in 2007 that went on to sell 32,000 copies worldwide. A mixtape was released every year after that by Master P. He continued to collaborate, record, and tour. In January 2017, he released his sixth mixtape with the No Limit Boys, titled We All We Got.
Other Pursuits
When Master P was in his twenties, he built a well-diversified business empire that included several hip-hop labels and clothing lines as well as management companies, a high-end travel agency, a film production company, and a video game company.
He has had a variety of business interests, but No Limit Records, which pioneered the Southern Rap sound and sold over 80 million records worldwide, is still his most notable and likely most successful endeavor. Master P’s business empire raked in more than $160 million in profits in 1998. Master P’s first book, “Guaranteed Success,” was released in 2007.
No Limit Entertainment, the company that Master P founded and served as CEO of, was also a huge success as an investor. The independent record label No Limit is one of the most successful of all time.
Master P has had some success as an actor in addition to his rap albums. Several feature films and direct-to-DVD releases have featured him since 1997. As recently as 1999, he had a brief stint with WCW. Ashly DelGrosso was his partner on Dancing with the Stars. In Week 4, he was eliminated with the lowest score in the show’s history.
His role as Romeo’s father on the Nickelodeon children’s sitcom “Romeo!” has made him a household name in the entertainment industry. Since P’s real-life son Lil Romeo played Romeo, this was especially appropriate. A reality show centered on Master P and his family, titled Master P’s Family Empire, was announced in 2015. The show aired on Reelz for ten episodes throughout one season.
Accolades
During the American Music Awards in 1999, Master P was named Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Artist. According to VH1, he was one of the 50 greatest hip-hop artists of all time in 2005. VH1 ranked Master P’s “Make Em Say Uhh!” at No. 94 on its list of the greatest hip-hop songs of all time. According to BET’s list of the most influential rappers of all time, he is number 28. One of the 25 Most Influential Black Music Executives, BET also recognized him for his contributions to the industry. Master P was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame in July 2013, becoming the first hip-hop artist to do so.
Personal Life
In 1989, Master P married Sonya Miller, and they have two children. They are the parents of seven children. It was alleged in Miller’s divorce petition from back in 2014 that the rapper owned 31 homes across the country, 13 cars, and 45 lucrative businesses. No Limit Records had an audited value of $136 million, and she claimed that Master P had a personal net worth of $350 million at the height of his empire. In return, she asked for 40% of his assets. In 2014, a confidential settlement was reached regarding the couple’s divorce.
The P Miller Youth Centers and the P Miller Food Foundation for the Homeless are two of Master P’s many charitable endeavors that benefit underserved areas of the city. In Memphis, Tennessee, in July 2005, he was presented with the city’s key. During the presidential campaign of 2007, Master P became heavily involved in politics, publicly urging people to go to the polls. Master P was an early supporter of Illinois senator Barack Obama’s campaign for the presidency and later became a supporter of his campaign. Congresswoman Maxine Waters awarded Master P and his son Lil’ Romeo the Certificate of Special Recognition in April 2010. With Michelle Obama, the father and son hosted an anti-obesity event in 2010.
