Master P has always promoted independence. The legendary rapper built his No Limit Records empire by selling albums from his trunk. He later diversified his empire by stepping into dozens of other business ventures, including investing in and becoming a partner of the 1990’s popular chip brand Rap Snacks.
Last year, Master P, born Percy Miller, announced the creation of his own ramen noodles, Icon Ramen Noodles under the Rap Snacks brand. In the announcement, Miller called himself Chef-Boy-Ar-P, and offered business advice.

“I grew up on noodles now I created my own brand. Start small and build. Get you some product if you want to be successful.”
In a new video on Twitter, Master P and his son, Romeo Miller say that Icon Ramen Noodles will put money “back into the community.”
“I want to ask ya’ll one thing: who owns Ramen Noodle? Do ya’ll know? Probably don’t,” Master P said, juxtaposing Icon Ramen Noodles to a more well-known, popular brand that isn’t Black-owned.
“This guy come over to this country and made a trillion-dollar business.”

Icon Ramen Noodles will also pair flavors with hip-hop icons. Last month, Bay Area legend E-40 posted on Instagram that his flavor would be Beef Prime Rib, while Boosie will be Louisiana Hot and Spicy Chicken. Miller himself will be featured on the Creamy Chicken Gumbo flavor.
The flavors of the noodles are inspired by Miller’s New Orleans roots. Flavors will include Creamy Chicken Gumbo, Hot N Spicy Cajun Shrimp, Spicy Picante Chicken, and Sirloin Steak Beefy. According to the Instagram post, the noodles can be cooked in the microwave or on the stove.
