Exclusive Interview with Romeo at TagWorld.com.

Santa Monica, CA (DATE) - Back in early 2000, Lil’ Romeo shot straight to the top of the Billboards Hot 100, even before the album hit the streets, at the age of 11 with, “Baby.” The album, Game Time, was released in 2002 and Romeoland followed two years later. A collection of music from Romeo! His television series, on the Nickelodeon network, appeared in stores back in 2005. Though a rapper and actor, Romeo is also one of the top 20 basketball players in the country at the age of 15. This summer he chose school and basketball camp over a lucrative movie offer. Later on this year Romeo will release a full-length album and movie titled God's Gift. Out now is the first single and video from that album, “Shine.” TagWorld met up with Romeo at TagWorld’s offices in Santa Monica, CA to talk about his new album.

Romeo - Y’all know I got a new album coming out its called Gods Gift. I wanted to do something different with this you know I put out 4 albums so this is gonna be my fifth so I wanted to do something special to all the fans out their, so I’m gonna give y’all the album for free and it come with a DVD.

Patricia - What is your writing process when you are working on new music?
Romeo - The writing process for me, I just, I’m kinda weird I like writing in the dark for some reason. I’m a dark man they call me the Vampire in the booth. You know I’m a workaholic so when I’m in the studio I just keep going, I keep going, they call me the energizer bunny and everything all the names you could think of. It’s just a crazy process you know, when you with me, you just gotta be ready to give 130 percent, That’s how we do it.

Patricia - How do you feel you have changed since your previous albums?
Romeo - The Lottery Pick we put that out with digital and that was just a little teaser for all the fans. I’ve been gone for a little minute and they wanted to hear something so we put that out and then we got Gods Gift coming out November 14th and I’m doing a whole DVD thing with that and I feel now that I’m more mature on this album. Gods Gift is gonnna be crazy, people not gonna be expecting this and I just feel literally I stepped up and in the future I should be hooked up with the greatest one day.

Patricia - What other projects do you have coming up in the future?
Romeo - Well you know the games changed since the little days, since my first single “My Baby” I had the Michael Jackson remake and now you can see me with all the Gutta Boys. I’m trying to bring back that whole no limit, like my dads (Master P) style in 1999 old No Limit Soldiers. You know I’m the president of my new company Gutta Music and I feel like everyday I grow. If you listen to my first album and you listen to these albums you’ll see a big difference, people be like, “Man that’s you Romeo, can’t believe that, you came a long way,” so I just feel that I’m growing each and every day and you gotta just take it step by step if you want to do good in this business. I actually started Gutta Music after Hurricane Katrina. I had some cousins and they were down there, they were on top of homes and everything, they used to rap and everything and they didn’t take it seriously but after Hurricane Katrina I wanted to do something that would change there life so I was like, “Hey yo I’m going to do a new label called Gutta Music y’all down to be my first artists” and that’s the Rich Boys that’s who I’m talking about it containes C-Los and Lil’ D and they was like, “Yeah we’ll do it.” They real talented you know they used to just joke and play around with it first and then we started listening to the music and we was like, “Man this could really be something right here” so that’s how I got started with Gutta Music like I said, I’m trying to just follow in my fathers footsteps and that’s some big Shaq shoes right there though I’m gonna do my best though, so that’s how gutta music got started.

Patricia - How does your dad (Master P) inspire you in your music and in life?
Romeo - My pops, Master P, you know he inspires me a lot and if he wasn’t in my life I probably wouldn’t be doing this. You know I’m a ball player, I’ve been playing ball since I was 2 and just seeing my dad do what he do made me want to do this even more. You know my Dad, I gotta say he gave me a lot of advice on like everything from girl advice to music advice and he’s a mentor in my life so, I love you pops.
