     *With a rap and television career already on lock, and a college basketball run at USC just on the horizon, 18-year-old rapper Romeo Miller has just entered the business world with the purchase of popular potato chip brand, Rap Snacks Inc.

      According to Allhiphop.com, the son of No Limit Records founder Percy “Master P” Miller purchased the corporation, which touts its chips as "The Official Snack of Hip Hop."

      "I think it's incredible," Master P. told AllHipHop.com. "All my life I was looking to build a generation of wealth and to have your family understand that is great."

      Rap Snacks Inc., based in Greensboro, North Carolina, was founded by James "Fly" Lindsey in 1994, according to the Web site.  Each potato chip bag features a cartoon image and biography of a rapper who is endorsing a particular flavor.

      Romeo's own personalized flavor of Rap Snacks is "Bar-B-Quin With My Honey," a honey barbecue flavor potato chip, while Atlanta rapper Yung Joc has a personalized line of flavored cheese curls.
