Percy Robert Miller, Sr. (born April 29, 1967), better known by his stage name Master P or his business name P. Miller, is an American rapper, actor, entrepreneur, investor, producer, and former professional minor league basketball player. He is the founder of the popular label No Limit Records, which went bankrupt and was relaunched as New No Limit Records through Koch Records, followed by Guttar Music Entertainment, Take A Stand Records and No Limit Forever Records. He is the founder and CEO of P. Miller Enterprises, an entertainment and financial conglomerate and Better Black Television. Miller gained fame in the late 1990s with the success of his group TRU and his fifth album ''Ice Cream Man,'' which contained his first single "Mr. Ice Cream Man". In 1997, after the success of one his biggest singles to date, "Make 'Em Say Uhh!," went platinum, Miller grew further in popularity. Then Miller released his second platinum album ''Ghetto D''. Miller also starred in his own street film, mostly based on his life, ''I'm Bout It''. In 1998, P. Miller released his most successful album to date ''MP Da Last Don''. The album was also based on a film that Miller produced, which came out earlier that year with the same name. The album hit #1 on the Billboard Top 200 charts, selling over 400,000 copies in its first week. The album was certified 4x platinum, with over four million copies sold, making it Miller's best-selling album. In 1999, Miller released his eighth album, ''Only God Can Judge Me.'' It was not as successful as his previous album, though it still managed to reach a gold certification. Miller also starred in the movie, ''I Got the Hook Up,'' with A.J. Johnson. In the 2000s, as No Limit Records' popularity was declining, Miller's was as well. P. Miller re-launched No Limit Records as New No Limit Records. On November 28, 2000, he released his ninth studio album, ''Ghetto Postage;'' with relatively little success compared to earlier releases, selling 500,000 copies; critics ravaged the album. In 2003, Miller starred in the film Lockdown. In 2004, Miller released his eleventh album, ''Good Side, Bad Side'' it charted number 1 on the Independent Billboards and sold 300,000 copies. The same year Miller released his first independent album ''Living Legend: Certified D-Boy'' on his new label Guttar Music, and the album only sold 75,000 copies. In 2011, Miller and Gucci Mane produced and were featured in a new soundtrack entitled "Get Money" which was produced by Drumma Boy.
