Master P and Romeo Miller, his son, are in the middle of family drama that has made its way to social media earlier in the week. On Friday, December 16th, Romeo called out his father over the loss of his sister when he condemned a certain father for allegedly neglecting his own child’s mental health issues, but publicly addressed a stranger’s similar problems.
Romeo wrote, “Today was a boiling point, I seen a man avoid his own children struggle with suicide and depression but post another man whom passed today that he doesn’t even know. Yall idols be lost. Better stop following the blind. Watch when it’s revealed.” Then on Saturday, December 17th, Romeo continued to jab at his father in the form of a poem called “The Tree of Trauma.” He captioned his Instagram post, “A poem, because poetry is one of the most powerful forms of therapy. Let’s educate and break these cycles together! You mental health is just like a muscle that needs to be built and treated. The next generation will grow stronger because of our truths and as a man of God, I know mines will one day too. The Tree of Trauma.”
His poem includes several questions such as, “Why is is that you can’t take the same heat as our mother can?” “Why do you feel the need to promote and hold a product on every interview just to validate your worth, don’t the people see that?” and “How come it took my daughter being born, to finally realize that we have blindly been feeding the enemy?”
On December 18th, Master P went on Instagram in order to respond in saying, “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 on.” Adding, “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. No family is perfect but together with God, we can heal and get through this.”
Master P’s caption for his post read, “I wouldn’t wish this on no parent, especially when you try to do everything you can for your kids.@romeomiller What’s the plan? You are either part of the problem or the solution. I love you and the door is always open for you but I won’t tolerate disrespect. I havent talked to you or seen you in months. God knows I’ve tried to do my best.”
After that Romeo replied in DM’s stating, “I pulled up to the crib time and time after that and you deflect, I’ve texted you countless times and you reply and deflect. Social media is THE ONLY WAY YOU COMMUNICATE. Now you wanna talk. Anything to protect that image.”
In a separate longer reply Romeo said, “I loved you so much that I followed you blindly for 30+yrs, You know we’ve talked behind closed doors. 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. And I don’t need anyone to feel sorry for me pops, I’m truly a man of God. If you are really a man of God, then you will prevail in the end, even when I share my truth.” He also claimed he has never been paid for anything he did as Lil Romeo.
Master P was quick to reply with a long post stating, “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. I worked hard to get my family out the ghetto, Every time I fell off I got up and went to work, I didn’t blame anyone for my failures. You started this social media rant. So what’s your plan besides showing the world you’re entitled, spoiled at 30+, and throwing a tantrum on social media. I don’t care about an image, The bloggers can have their laughs this week. I’m going to keep working, keep praying and letting GOD guide me.”
