He may be small, but Lil' Romeo is one fierce competitor when it comes to the hip-hop realm. Challenging the biggest and toughest of rappers for platinum records and Billboard hits, Lil' Romeo has proved his innate talent and passion for rapping, cashing in on his good-natured rhymes and rhythms to become a standout in the music industry.

The son of Southern rapper and hip-hop mogul Master P, Lil' Romeo (born Percy Romeo Miller, Jr.) was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, demonstrating his knack for everything hip-hop from his youth. Indubitably influenced by his father, Lil' Romeo made his debut on the music scene at age 11, releasing the number one charting R&B/rap hit "My Baby" in 2001. The single shot straight up the Billboard charts, proving (alongside Lil' Bow Wow) that the hip-hop market for clean-rhyming preteen talent was hot. Helped out by his father Master P and his No Limit Records label, Romeo was further propelled along the music scene thanks to his uncles (and well-known rappers) Silkk the Shocker and C-Murder. Lil' Romeo, Romeo's self-titled debut album, was released in 2001, and despite the downfall of No Limit Records the album was a smash success, going platinum in no time. Gametime, Lil' Romeo's follow-up release in 2002, outsold Lil' Romeo, and as the young rapper's name was on the rise his music seemed to follow. 2004's Romeoland saw only a fraction of the success of Romeo's previous albums, however, and by 2006's Greatest Hits release the hip-hop prince was looking for other outlets. He eventually established himself as an actor on Nickelodeon, also releasing 2006's Lottery and God's Gift as Internet-only albums, followed by collaborations with his father (Hip Hop History) and cousins Lil' D and C-Los Young Ballers- The Hood Been Good to Us) under the monikers the Miller Boyz and Rich Boyz, respectively.
