MASTER P’S REPORTED ‘MENACE II SOCIETY’ SEQUEL WAS NEVER IN PLAY, SAYS ALLEN HUGHES
Master P is reported to have once been working on a Menace II Society sequel, but according to one of the film’s directors, this was never the case.
Earlier this week, Fat Trel opened up about his rift with Master P in an interview with No Jumper. The DMV-based rapper said the fallout came after the No Limit Records founder wanted him to star in a sequel to the 1993 hood classic, which was the first feature film directed by Albert and Allen Hughes — also known as the Hughes Brothers.
However, Allen Hughes has told HipHopDX that neither he nor his brother was ever approached by Master P or anyone from his camp in relation to doing a Menace II Society sequel.
“This is the first I’m hearing of this,” Hughes told DX. “I respect P tremendously but would never approve a sequel to Menace, never.”
In his interview, Trel said he got a call out of nowhere from P one day in 2012, asking him to be in a sequel to the Tyrin Turner-starring film that he was attempting to purchase the rights for.
After moving to Los Angeles to be a part of the project alongside future Louie V Mob member Alley Boy, Trel said the movie stalled which eventually led to things not working out between him and Master P.
“ When I moved there bro, the movie never got brought up,” Trel told host Adam22. “I been living here for about seven months, I haven’t started an acting class, we no longer spoke about the scripts, the movie never ever came up.”
Instead, the pair spent their time in the studio making music until Trel decided to return home after leaving Los Angeles for a funeral.
