Master P sits down with Rickey Smiley for a conversation about ownership, legacy, music and the mindset that helped him turn No Limit into an empire.

From opening his first record store at 19 and selling CDs out of his trunk to negotiating the groundbreaking 85/15 distribution deal, Master P breaks down why ownership has always mattered more than looking successful. He also talks about investing in the next generation, why artists need to learn the business before it’s too late and bringing No Limit and Cash Money together for a tour rooted in peace, mental health and celebrating their legacy while they’re still here.

This is Master P beyond the music! The businessman, mentor and one of hip-hop’s original architects of independence.
