Master P dishes on why Fat Trel didn’t sign to No Limit

When Fat Trel teamed with Master P and Alley Boy to form the group Louie V Mob and drop the mixtape New World Order, everyone took for granted that Trel would sign to P’s No Limit Forever and help bring the tank back. The very last thing people expected was for Trel to sign to MMG, given his history with Wale, but that’s exactly what happened. The move left a lot of people scratching their head but Master P says he knows why.


Here is what he told AllHipHop.com:


Fat Trel is a good rap artist but the No Limit Forever brand is about building entrepreneurs and business partners. When I was around Fat Trel, he was in a rush to getting a check and a record deal versus being patient and building his own to be a true boss. I even spoke with his manager and told him that this was not an overnight process. I’m not in the business of signing artists, this second go round I want to help all of my artists/partners to become their own boss but that requires sacrifice and hard work if you want to make millions. I’m not just cutting checks and taking care of artists anymore. No Limit Forever is a real independent company, this is not just a write-off for us. And if you’re a real street dude, you would appreciate me for what I’ve already done for you and your family. I went above and beyond for Fat Trel. I took him out a negative environment, got him a safe place to stay in Los Angeles, transportation, put money in his pocket, paid for plane tickets and hotels for him and his team, got him exposure, put him on music with me and all without a contract just because I believed in the little homie. And I told his mother that I would do my best to help him. I admit I was surprised when I heard that he did a deal with Wale because I thought they didn’t like each other. But I wish him the best with MMG, I think it’s a better fit for him as an artist.
