Master P Pays $271 Monthly for Child Support Bill

Master P's financial status has been brought to light as the rapper and his ex-wife are engaged in a heated battle over child support. The millionaire mogul, whose net worth was once estimated at $350 million, has only been ordered to pay $271 a month in child support for each of his four minor children.

According to TMZ, the small amount was determined based on court documents filed back in March, which lists his monthly income at $1,387.

The website also reported that P's ex-wife, Sonya Miller, has been unsuccessful in her attempts to recover documents revealing his real monthly salary, prompting Child Protective Services to investigate the case. For now, P, born Percy Miller, will continue to fork over the minimum payment for the children, until CPS is able to further evaluate his official monthly take home.

A native of New Orleans, the rapper became a staple for hip-hop in the region, by way of his No Limit Records imprint. Once a top company, housing the likes of Mystikal, Silk the Shocker and even Snoop Dogg at one point, the label has since fallen on hard times.

Numerous lawsuits forced P to shut the label down and file for bankruptcy in 2003, but it appears as if No Limit is looking to bounce back, announcing a relaunch this year, helmed by Master P's oldest son, Romeo. The young rapper revealed to the Boombox that he has been working on his solo project as well as cultivating new talent for the label.

Master P has yet to release a statement on the status of his finances.

God does not like ugly. Your life will not be right until you live right. It says in June of 2011 that's he's attempting to bounce back? Well it is now almost two years later and I haven't seen the bounce. Think about what you did to the woman that stood behind you and slept in a car with you when you had nothing. I said it once and I will say it again, God does not like ugly and until you do right, things will continue to go wrong for you. God Bless!

Mat It is obvious, you have no Idea what you are talking about. THe system is corrupted because of people like Master P. ANd as for his kids having a wonderful life, YOU yourself has not lived it. Those kids were in the spot lite making money for his enterprise, not being regular kids. How would you like to have that pressure? Some kids do but I personally have little doubt that he just went along with the dreams of his kids. He totally profited off of them. What you commented was clearly and blantantly a defense of someone you idolized. I have been in the situation and I know how custody cases work and how easy it is for fathers to walk away. THis is not about his business. THose kids needs to be taken care of with his last peice of bread if that is what he has, not trying to develop some silly company that is selfish, idol, extravagant and useless because these people can't live forever in the lime light. Maybe he would be best suited spending his time doing something else anyway.
SO like I was saying...If this woman allowed him full custody and she collected nothing(which I see nothing at all wrong with and HOW THAT IS EXPOLITING THE SYSTEM IS BEYOND ME MATT! HE SHOULD BE JUST AS RESONSBILE FOR THEIR CUSTODY AS THE MOTHER. AND SHE IS THE ONE SHOWING SHE IS NOT THE GOLD DIGGER BY GIVING HIM THE KIDS AND HE CAN RECIEVE CHILD SUPPORT FROM HER "IF SHE" HAS IT NOT WAITING AROUND FOR HIM TO SUPPORT HIS KIDS. THERE IS NOTHING SAYING SHE CAN NOT MOVE IN THE HOUSE DOWN THE STREET ALSO TO MAKE SURE HE IS DOING A GOOD JOB AND STILL SEE THE KIDS EVERYDAY. I DIDN'T DO IT ON PURPOSE BUT IT WORKED FOR ME AND MY EX-HUSBAND WAS NOT ALLOWED TO JUST WALK AWAY AND BE A TEENAGER AGAIN OR WHATEVER WAS GOING ON IN HIS HEAD.(WHO CAN FIGURE OUT MEN ANYWAY).
That is what I was saying. Like you indicated he did take care of his other kids. I wonder why? Prehaps because THEY were taking care of him?
PROTECTING HIS ASSESTS MY ASS. KIDS ARE OUR ASSETS AND THEY NEVER FORGET MATT!

Master P dont need to release a statment of his finances to you or any other bullshit website, its none of your business. And to piperann...come the fuk on, ur r the reason why the child support system is so corrupt, child support dont care about the kids, they only care about how much they will make off the case. Have u seen what master p has done for his kids? have u seen his son romeo?, valentino?, chypinique, and more.... they have been giving a great life, and oppurtunity. Also note, bankrupting a business has nothing to do with being broke, people bankrupt business everyday to protect their assests, lol .... master p gotta protect himself from the system, and this bullshit article is nothing more than a smear campain- get a life, leave the family alone...

This is a horrible situation and I am praying for these children to have courage and remain strong in the face of blatant neglect. It costs almost 1k to support a child in Michgian. I can't imagine in this economy, what it takes to be a successful supportive parent in NY or LA. This young woman have to call his bluff. He readily admitt that these are his children. She can threaten to hand over full custody so he would have to support them and make an effort to actually be a participant in their life. If she is financially and unstable to do so the other parent is required to do so. This is not a easy move and it is hard to explain to the children that you love so much that you are not going to be living in the same house as them and be thier daily caregiver and YES to outsiders people will speculate that it may appear strange but this man is going to walk way clear and free to start another life if she does not make a real power move on this situation *big HUGs* hun. You can do it.
