Master P is a multifaceted rapper, record producer, record executive, actor, entrepreneur — and now president of basketball operations. On Feb. 26, 2026, Louisiana’s University of New Orleans (UNO) Privateers announced that the local legend, born Percy Miller, was joining them in this new role. As a former college basketball player, Miller, 54, has spent the past two decades coaching the sport. During that time, his Amateur Athletic Union team, “P. Miller’s Ballers,” won three national championships, and he coached future NBA players Demar Derozan , Brandon Jennings, Lance Stephenson, and Jalen Suggs, the news release notes. “As a kid growing up in New Orleans, I can honestly say that basketball changed and saved my life,” Miller said. Despite his significant success in the music industry, Miller said he finds the most fulfillment in coaching the next generation of basketball players and giving back to his community. He asserted that UNO used to have one of the best basketball...
Master P and Snoop Dogg believe Walmart And Post Foods are stifling the success of their cereal venture. In a press conference held on Feb. 6, it was revealed the rappers-turned-businessmen have filed a lawsuit as a result of their belief that the “industry giants” allegedly colluded to impact Broadus Foods’ Snoop Cereal’s visibility on store shelves, a press release mentions.

Relationships might be worth more than money, especially for hip-hop billionaire Jay-Z. As AfroTech previously reported, the rapper once revealed that relationships and sometimes talent are the factors that matter for music collaborations. “It’s actually always been mostly relationships. Sometimes it’s talent, and sometimes someone asks me to be on some. Pretty much every song that I am on — I am asked to be. I don’t ask people to be on their songs, and I never charge,” Jay-Z said during an episode of Kevin Hart’s “Hart to Heart” talk show on Peacock in 2022.

Climbing toward the top of the ladder through sports, entertainment, or the world of fashion, opens doors. One of those doors is education, specifically earning honorary doctorates from an accredited institution or university. The feat highlights the contributions of people who are breaking barriers and inspiring others. This year, entertainers Stevie Wonder, Ludacris, and Angela Bassett, are just a few names who have forged a path beyond their respective industries and can collectively toast to earning their doctorate titles.
If there’s one person who we can consistently learn from when it comes to making smart business moves, it’s Percy Miller. Miller, known to the culture as Master P, cemented a place in Hip-Hop for himself through his No Limit Soldier movement in the early 90s. Since then, he has also solidified himself as a renowned businessman as the founder of No Limit Records, the CEO and founder of P. Miller Enterprises, the creator of Rap Snacks, and much more. After inheriting $10,000, following medical malpractice that led to the death of his grandfather, Master P used the funds to invest in not only himself but his family. He made the decision to take his music dreams all the way by eventually relocating from his home of New Orleans, LA to California.
It’s no secret that Nipsey Hussle was a huge fan of Master P and the movement that he started with No Limit Records, but the respect that he had for the icon ran even deeper than that. Prior to his untimely passing, Nipsey Hussle spoke on the relationship that he had with the New Orleans native during an interview with Billboard. “Master P was an innovator in so many different ways,” the late Nipsey Hussle once told the outlet. “Puff gets his credit. Dame and Jay get their credit. Ruff Ryders, Irv Gotti and Chris Gotti, they get their credit. P don’t get his credit, man.” When asked, “Why do you think that is?” Nipsey Hussle responded: “This is my opinion and I could be dead wrong: He got so successful in music. He was the first to do it the way he did it. He put his kids on — he put Romeo on. He turned into a businessman. He did films. He burned the game out. He maxed out.” It seems as though Master P’s sentiments about the West Coast rapper are one and the same, because, during...
