On May 18, 2020, Master P shared a video on Instagram explaining the reason why he and Romeo quit 'GUHH'. It sent the showrunners, fans and the TV industry into a tizzy. "I'm only showing you this so next time you’re watching this show you can use your real judgment and see how they flip people's words and change positive moments into negative. This is the reason we quit 6 months ago," he began his rant and went on to point out how the producers wanted to create a love angle between Romeo and Angela Simmons.
In the clip, Master P argued with one of the producers, tried to make her see the pointlessness of the fake relationship. "Why do you want to see them fall in love? There’s no love there,” he said and added: "She lost her husband, or her boyfriend, or baby daddy. She lost him. He got murdered. She doesn’t need another relationship right now."
He didn't stop with just the post. Master P, in an interview with TMZ, pointed out that the networks care about "ratings" and "negative edits." "These companies only care about ratings and creating negative edits, short cuts of scenes, focusing on drama for headline clicks and gossip that have been destroying families for years on tv, he told the website and added: "That's the real reason my son didn't want to talk on camera because he knew that his words would be altered like they did mine."
Unlike Egypt Criss, who decided to return after announcing that she had quit, Master P and Romeo are done for good.
'Growing Up Hip Hop' Season 6 premieres on May 13, Thursday on WE tv at 9/8c. For more information, check your local listings.
