Master P avoided giving a concrete answer when asked about owing artists money on "The Breakfast Club."

Master P was asked about Jess Hilarious, Fat Trel, and Lil Romeo all claiming that the legendary rapper owes them money for his latest appearance on The Breakfast Club. During the interview, Master P mostly dodged providing a concrete answer to hosts DJ Envy and Charlamagne. Jess Hilarious has accused Master P of owing her $15,000 for work she did on the 2019 film I Got the Hook Up 2 while Fat Trel has made similar claims. Even his son, Romeo, has been engaged in a public dispute with the music mogul.

"I feel like we are destroying each other by not thinking," Master P said in the interview. "We just talking. Me, I'm a humble man. I'm a God-fearing man. I come from the streets, I tried to change my life. I want to show people how to grow up, change and do what I've done." He added, "I feel like we don't value relationships no more. All we value is views, TikToks, likes, followers. But what about when you burning those bridges and you have to come back on that bridge? Everything that go up come down."

"Anybody give you an opportunity, you should be able to value that and be thankful," he continued. As for the Jess situation specifically, he claimed that he doesn't personally handle payments for his productions. "This other thing happened six years ago," he continued. "I'm saying, why are we arguing and fussing about that? Other cultures are not doing that…That's the past. We can't change the past but we can change the future. But we can be thankful of somebody gave me an opportunity."

Viewers on social media weren't happy with Master P's response to the situation. One joked, "Master P saying a whole bunch of nothing on this breakfast club interview. You owe folks bread or not og lol stop beating around the bush." Others accused him of "talking in circles" and saying "bullshit." Check out Master P's appearance on The Breakfast Club below.
