AMEN!
Fact of the matter is, nobody out here in the Bay MADE Master P...cats don't realize that...they think he owes these dudes something. HE was the one hittin the road with CD's in the trunk to get a buzz..not the bay. He's the one that put the records out, not the bay...he's the one that deserves what he got...not the bay! PERIOD!
If I blew up, and nobody sold those records but me...then I give credit to myself for hustlin' my ass off. I wouldn't owe the BAY anything, because yea, I live here...but I didn't get any type of RAP KNOWLEDGE from the Bay! I used my own mind, my own style, and my own drive. This is what P did, and those who recognize it sooner, will be less likely to hate the man in the long run.
