Master P announced that the release 
date of the first father-son hip-hop album titled “Hip-Hop History” 
will be September 4, 2007. The date was not chosen to compete with 
Curtis Jackson’s delayed release, but rather to create balance in the 
marketplace and give kids a freedom of choice. Master P will be 
mixing it up with Chamillionaire, Silkk The Shocker and other rappers 
that want to continue making street music but without the explicit 
lyrics. “Hip-Hop History” will be a collaboration between Master P 
and his son, Romeo, and will be produced by platinum producer Mike 
Diesel, Chip, and Hood Noise.”This record isn’t about making money, it’s about providing a choice, 
changing, and hopefully saving lives,” said Master P. All proceeds 
from this record will go towards a foundation and scholarships for 
underprivileged kids that want to further their education by going to 
college.

“Guaranteed Success,” Master P’s book on how people can achieve and 
maintain financial success, will also hit bookstores on the same date.

Master P is challenging to the media to devote their time and 
airwaves to the positive side of hip-hop. It would make a difference. 
“Before we condemn others for making a change, we should take a look 
in the mirror and ask ourselves, ‘what are we doing? Are we a part of 
the problem, or are we a part of the solution?’” said Master P. “Take 
A Stand Records, the movement.”

From the song “Let The Kids Grow”
I heart you flipped stacks
Yeah I did that.
My brother’s dead; cousins, friends
Can’t get them back.
And since I changed,
I guess they think I got sauce.
I guess you hard when you’re dead
Or locked behind bars.
Let the kids grow,
Let the kids dream.
