Master P is not playing when it comes to building generational wealth and has put his sons Hercy and Mercy through his own No Limit financial boot camp. The hip-hop mogul and businessman recently sat down with “The Breakfast Club” and revealed he has a few million dollar deals on the table for his sons who are still in high school.
“My sons [are] helluva basketball players but they not gone [sic] be dumb jocks. They gone [sic] be owning businesses and be able to do other stuff and when they look at us, and they look at me like, ‘Oh he come from hip-hop …’ But my boys [are] educated. They [are] A students and they [are] some of the top basketball players in high school in the world,” said P.
Master P’s youngest son Mercy is only a freshman in high school and is already being recruited to be paid to play.
“They got high schools…. Next year the rules are changing, and they gone [sic] be paying kids to go to [certain] high schools. They got a program that just called me to pay me to get him and they said they wanted top players, but I was like, ‘Nah, we about education, we bigger than that,’“ the New Orleans hitmaker elaborated further.
In March, Hercy made news when he committed to attending and playing basketball at Tennessee State University, an HBCU school. Master P also revealed that he’s secured a deal to pay his son a few millions before he ever steps foot on a college court.
“And with Hercy already … The NCAA rules are changing in August so I got two deals on the table for both of them, but I can’t do it until August. I mean I made $400 a month playing basketball at a top university but now he got a deal on the table. We got advertising agencies that want to use his likeness. He already got a deal on the table for $2.5 million and he’ll probably be the highest paid player at any college, not just an HBCU.”
