Master P<\/a> has recalled the time he assisted Michael Jackson<\/a> in getting a bus so he could escape New York City after the 9\/11 attacks.<\/p>\n

The No Limit Records founder, who once had a Jackson 5<\/a> sample cleared for Lil Romeo’s “My Baby,” recalled the conversation during a recent episode of Cam Newton<\/a>‘s Funky Friday<\/a> podcast.<\/p>\n

P’s revelation came when he was recalling the time Romeo performed a medley of “My Baby” and “I Want You Back” during Jackson<\/a>‘s 30th anniversary concert in New York, which took place just days before 9\/11.<\/p>\n

“I had to rent a bus to come back home ’cause they wasn’t flying out no more,” Master P<\/a> said. “I even showed Mike how to get them. Mike said, ‘Man, how you get a bus?’ Like, ‘Man, call this number up and I hooked him up with the bus to get back home.'”<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in the episode, Master P went back to his early career as a record store owner and recalled enlisting Michael Jackson<\/a>‘s lawyer, who was able to help the King of Pop receive a 22 percentage from sales.<\/p>\n

“When I gave his lawyer $25,000, he told me the only deal you could get bigger than Michael is a 85\/15 [distribution] deal, but you going to need $200,000 in marketing money,” he said.<\/p>\n

In a Facebook post last September, Romeo said that he narrowly missed an interview and photoshoot at the World Trade Center on 9\/11.<\/p>\n

“A sold out #MadisonSquareGarden and #michaeljackson being in attendance was like a dream,” he captioned the post. “I mean I was 11 years old in #NewYork for the first time then the next day was a real life nightmare. Anybody who was there as well or affected by 9\/11 my prayers go out to you. This could’ve been my pops Master P and me last performance and public moment.”<\/p>\n
