The media star clarified that it's not about extra money, but rather about not getting paid upfront in the first place.

The debates between Master P and his artistic collaborators continue, as Jess Hilarious recently responded to his claims. Moreover, Hilarious said that she was "not playing" about payments P owes her, in response to his dismissal of her complaints. Furthermore, she said that the complaint was never about a second check not arriving, but rather missing upfront payments. For those unaware, this debacle began when Fat Trel said Master P had unfulfilled promises when it came to movie deals, music releases, and general support as a business partner. Still, Hilarious built off of his testimony to go at the No Limit boss for his dubious dealings.

"Ayo, nah, I ain't read this part," Jess remarked about P's comments on the situation. "He's like 'She's just joking, she be playing, y'all know her. She was joking about a second check that was never in her contract. That's the narrative they ran with for clickbait and fake headlines. Thank God for receipts!' You think out of everybody out there right now, I'mma come after you for clickbait and fake headlines? I don't have to do that, sir! Now, he playing around with me, because I never said it was a second check. It was money paid upfront and then it was supposed to have been another $15,000. Yeah, I didn't get the other half of my money. Stop playing with me like this was check 1, check 2. No."

For his part, the New Orleans mogul took to Instagram and made various comments about these accusations. “I love @jesshilarious_official and I know she was just cracking jokes because she signed her contract and got paid what she was owed for I Got The Hook Up 2 but if she tryna squeeze me for another 10k she got that." Also, in reference to the Fat Trel situation, he made a difference between artistry and business, shading those he deems ungrateful. "That’s one of the reasons why I got out of the music industry and into the product game. Product don’t talk back."

Meanwhile, these comments aren't necessarily anything new for P. In fact, he addressed multiple artist disagreements in the past. What's more is that he took it a step further by saying that nobody should speak on him if they haven't connected in over seven years. Regardless of what you think on that, come back to HNHH for the latest on Jess Hilarious and Master P.
