Admitting that he's still 'a work in progress,' the No Limit Records founder claims that he tried to reach out to his son and suggests Romeo to just call him if he needs anything.

AceShowbiz - Master P appears to have no intention to continue his online back-and-forth with his son Romeo Miller (formerly Lil' Romeo). Believing that the root of his son's anger is money issue, the record executive has publicly apologized to the actor/rapper as he admitted that he's still "a work in progress."
Master P, born Percy Robert Miller Sr., took to his Instagram page once again on Sunday, December 18 to address his feud with Romeo. Claiming that he's tried to reach out to his son, but he didn't call back, he said in a video, "If you destroy me, what are you gonna do for the rest of the family?"
Master P explained why he's helping the community instead of paying attention to his family first, "I'm not helping ungrateful people, I'm not an ATM machine..." He added, "I love my family. If I'm wrong forgive me I'm apologizing to you. I'm still a work in progress. I came from nothing."
The 52-year-old added that instead of crying and mourning the death of his daughter Tytyana Miller, he chose to give back to the community because he believes that's what his late daughter would've wanted. He went on urging his son, "You gotta to lead by example for the kids."
In the caption, Master reiterated his message about "moving on" from the drama. "I'm at peace now, I know the Truth," he wrote. "This social media rant was never about my daughter. This is about some money. Houses, cars and jewelry are temporary, you can't take any of it with you when you die. Life is too short."
He continued, "People gotta stop being ungrateful and place blame when they're not where they want to be in life. I'm tired of people saying they love me only when I give them something. I'm not an ATM machine or a robot, I have feelings too. Thanks for all your prayers, we need it. I'm moving on, going back to work and hustle for the ones that appreciate me. @romeomiller."
The back-and-forth between Master P and his son began after Romeo accused him of neglecting his own child's mental health struggles while addressing DJ Stephen "tWitch" Boss' suicide. This arrived seven months after Master P's son and Romeo's sister Tytyana died from an accidental fentanyl intoxication.
Seemingly responding to his son's diss, Master P posted on his IG Story, "Satan you are a liar!" which he later clarified was directed at a blog which reported his feud with his son. "The shade room is the Devil! GOD will make your enemies your footstool," he wrote over a screenshot of the post.
Master P then slammed his son as writing, "This new generation of kids need to stop blaming their parents for everything. How do they think they got to where they are without their parents making sacrifices for them? Mental illness is real and so many families are tragically affected by it, especially when there is added trauma like death of a loved one. Social media is not the place for healing."
"Son, I love you. Stop trying to get people to feel sorry for you. And let's come up with a solution. You can come talk to your father and your family like a man, you have kids, too," he added. "No family is perfect but together with God, we can heal and get through this."
In the caption, Master P penned, "I wouldn't wish this on no parent, especially when you try to do everything you can for your kids." He went on to question, "@romeomiller What's the plan? You are either part of the problem or the solution."
Responding to his father's claims, Romeo wrote back, "This was my last straw pops, stop trying to play the victim. I loved you so much that I followed you blindly for 30+yrs. You know we've talked behind closed doors." The reality star continued, "You aren't the man who you paint to be and why is it war because I refuse to follow ur lead. You only want to protect your image, but the image isn't even real."
"I don't need anyone to feel sorry for me pops, I'm truly a man of God... I've tried to keep things in house, you are addicted to social media and unfortunately use this app as therapy," Romeo further explained. "And when the world find out about the finances, outside of a gift or a car I've never been paid for anything I've accomplished as Lil Romeo. Uncle C and Silkk know. You only pay outsiders rightfully so they'll speak good on your name. I'm at peace because I can now speak my truth and help others. Mom was always right. Your pride is everything."
Master P then fired back in a separate post, "I thought this was about DJ Twitch and about my daughter's death. This is heartbreaking, you just exposed that this is REALLY ABOUT MONEY." He then noted, "I'm not afraid to admit I'm still growing as a man and a parent. Everybody deals with death in different ways. I get it, I'm just an ATM for this family. I don't care about an image."
