Master P. recently
clarified statements made during an interview with AllHipHop.com.
While P. took no
issues with the actual interview, the Colonel said radio DJ’s across the country
only read the feature’s headlines without delving into the full story, which
resulted in reports filled with rumors and innuendo about his relationship with
his brother Corey "C. Miller" Miller, as well as artists Destiny’s
Child and Ciara.
"If you go back and read the interview, I was explaining
how I don’t hold things against people," Master P. clarified to AllHipHop.com.
"I help myself and I am hustler who makes ghetto street music.”
DJ’s across the country contacted him regarding the interview,
taking the commander of the New No Limit by surprise.
"It’s a misunderstanding," P. continued. "And
as far as C., he’s my brother. I would do anything I could to get him out of
jail and I have. There were other reasons why I wasn’t more active in his trial."
P. revealed that officials requested he stay away from the trial
almost two years ago, after being accused of threatening to kidnap the prosecutions
children, charges he dismissed.
"I want it to be clear. I don’t have any issues with anyone,"
P. stated. "That’s exactly what I have always been against. I am too busy
hustling and doing positive things."
P., who is preparing his latest album Ghetto Bill Gates
also revealed his strategy the album and his label.
"I am going to show the industry how I started the first
time and how you don’t need so much money and publicity to make it. I am going
to ship 100,000 the first week and make a million. Then I am going to keep shipping
the record in quantities of 100,000 to the streets with no airplay and videoplays."
The second single from P’s album Ghetto Bill Gates is titled
"This single is dedicated to all the people who don’t read,"
P. joked.
