Lil Romeo says he never touched his own money because it went to pay Master P’s taxes

I haven’t read all the posts, but this is BS. Lil Romeo was a wack rapper and sub D1 hooper. His Father was 99.9% of the reason that he had the experiences of being a successful rapper and playing for USC. He could have leveraged these experiences to being successful on his own as an adult.

I have no idea lol far too many schools to quantify.
The answer is 0
I’ve seen football programs offer lesser talented players just to land their teammate…but that lesser talented player was still a player who was being recruited
Romeo was never a serious college prospect

Peak barbershop shit right here lol

I mean had you read the posts you'd see that according to Romeo, he never pocketed any of the money he made from the run he had. They all went to P's taxes. P is on record having tax issues.

Harder to set yourself up as an adult when you work for free as a kid

Romeo don't care about all of that.

It's about honor and loyalty and doing right as a father is what matters.

A father can give his son everything and still feel betrayed by his own father of how he handled things.

Hopefully they can heal together from this shit and make amends while being here on earth because life is too short.
So what did his father do wrong to not honor him?

How can you leverage some shit you never had in the first place from your own father that used the money he was supposed to pay him with for his taxes and shit.

This is why the generation curse is still locked because of how families mishandle money and not taking care of their own.

Honestly this is none of my business but if we are going to judge people we need to take money out of the situation. Having money doesn't make you a good father. I can't assume Romeo had a good upbringing just because his family had money. I think part of the way we advance as a culture is we stop making money the end all be all. Money is a tool it does not make you a good person and it shouldn't be everyone's sole priority in life.

Romeo's sister master P's daughter just recently died unexpectedly. Every family I know that that happened to had some infighting behind the death. It's the grief that they are all going through. We should see this through the lens of a family going through trauma and grief. Not an unappreciative child or a bad father. Spoiled brat or asshole dad. Who knows. But I do know they are both sad and we as black men do a shitty job of dealing with emotions.

That was deep.

Talk heavy.

This is something to think about as well.

I think it really hit harder when twitch died since Romeo sister and master p daughter died similarly the same way.

Generational Wealth transfer is more than money. It is also the knowledge and connections to get money. With him being a successful artist, his father being CEO of a successful label, and him graduating from USC, he had a direct lane to working in the music business. I have family that graduated from USC 2 years ago and now making high six figures working for a B list RNB artist. If Lil Romeo hasn’t created an income source at 33 years old, he shouldn’t be blaming his Father.

Man the vast majority of folks fall into this category...lol And don't have all the advantages that he had, in connections to wealthy folks, corporations etc. So that bs doesn't even fly in my book & folks make it to become successful adults everyday.

Right, this dude has damn near everything laid out in front of him & if he couldn't figure out how to capitalize on it the blame falls squarely on HIS shoulders.

So P stole from his kids and now his kids are broke and have nothing to show for it.

But they should keep it quiet in the family and let P lie to people and pretend how good of a business man he is. The mental gymnastics some of you use to defend shitty parents is crazy.

WE don't know what happened, but him airing out in public isn't going to solve anything. However dude still had advantages that the average person will never have growing up, so money or not he should have found a way to utilize those advantages/connections to make $.

What good did keeping it private all these years do? Here we go with the victim blaming. It's Romeo's fault the adult in his life used all the income he made as a kid to pay their taxes. Romeo should have been doing his own taxes investing his money at 11 years old.

OK...lol Are you his personal accountant? Cause if not there you like the rest us have no idea of what really happened.

But on thing that we do know for sure if that he had & still has more advantages than the average person

Is it a advantage if their parent pocketed all the money they made though? The life of a disney/nickeloded kid is very short lived, you rarely hear anything about these kid stars once they grow up.

If you my son and I bring you to work in the family business that I created, gave you a plush upbringing where you never wanted for anything, you traveled the world with me, got you into a top college that you didn't graduate from and that shine helped you do movies and reality shows, I don't owe you shit for them few whack ass albums.

Nigga had one certified gold album. If you don't get yo ass outta here, it cost money to print them CD's.

Everything in the family was going to the bottom line as far as I'm concerned.

Sounds like he running out of opportunities at 33.

Romeo is 33.
He has been an adult for 15 years. You mean to tell me in all these 15 years he has never been able to do anything separate from his father for himself?

He couldn't leverage any relationship to get into real estate...investing....anything?

I refuse to believe that

I'm going to view this from Romeo's point of view and throw a lot of what ifs out.

Although Romeo mentioned money, I think this has to do more with finding out or accepting the fact that your parents aren't perfect. Clearly, he was hurt about the family dynamics especially since that has always been what P preached. Romeo may have just now started seeing Percy Miller the man vs Master P the businessman. At somepoint, you start to see your parents flaws or believe they are not as smart as you believed as a child.

Typically, families business are ran in a way to keep outsiders out. You are taught that anyone outside of the family may not have your best interests at heart. As child, you also assume your parents know more than you and have your best interests at heart. Even as a young adult, you are dependent on your parents for the basics. Some people endure it because they feel that they will inherit the business in the end. Others rebel and are pushed out of the family. To me, Beyonce is an example of someone who stepped away from her father's realm. It could be said since she left and started taking responsibility for her life, her father did a good job. If P didn't give Romeo what he needed to "rebel"/think for himself, it can be said that be failed his soon on some level.

Romeo having connections in his 20s doesn't mean he could take advantage of those relationships or really built them. His manager may have been P up until recently. P likely provided any lawyers Romeo had access to. P could have also discouraged certain situations that were not beneficial to his brand as a whole or didn't inform him of those opportunities. This doesn't take into account potential relationships being ruined due to the relationship with his father.

It wasnt that long ago they were both on Drink Champs and Romeo seemed to have alot of respect for his father. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding that can br easily fixed.if this really is about his sister. P probably can explain why he didn't want to talk about her. Everyone grieves differently and talking about a stranger is way easier than your child.
