I was never one to hop aboard the Master P hype train when No Limit Records was the hottest thing out. I just couldn’t get past Mystikal screaming in my ear and Master P’s constipated grunts.
Apparently I was in the minority though – at least for a bit – because Master P and No Limit became quite the hit.
That time has since passed and the man also known as Percy Miller isn’t nearly the popular figure he once was, though TMZ’s caught up with the rapper and record label owner to ask what he thought about the Lamar Odom situation.
Oddly enough, P was willing to talk and blamed Kobe Bryant (and with the Kardashian family) for Lamar Odom’s spiral.
If Kobe was his friend … Kobe, like, owns the team. He could’ve got the man back on the team … that’s all he wanted.”
P also goes off on the NBA — saying Odom was “blackballed” from the league over his decision to be on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” … because at the time, the NBA wanted nothing to do with them.
As for Khloe, P says he truly believed Odom loved her — but made a mistake in marrying her because “he didn’t realize what he was getting into.” He concludes with a warning to James Harden.
While there’s no denying that Kobe Bryant does have a stranglehold over the Lakers franchise, I’m not sure how you can pin this one on the Black Mamba.
Maybe P’s just a little salty all of his NBA tryouts fizzled out and wishes Kobe would have helped bring him to the Lakers.
For what it’s worth, Master P says he was a ‘mentor’ to Lamar Odom. So take it for what it’s worth.
