[@59DGO59]

The rumor says that Master P initially inflated his own sales in the beginning of his career by buying his own records when he owned a records store in Richmond, California. So yeah, he prolly continued to do that at a larger scale and thus the No Limit sales in the 1997-1999 craze are prolly way inflated.

[@joshingram071]

Cut the 🧢. No Limit's first plaque was P's Ice Cream Man, which was his fifth album in 1996. After that album & Ghetto D they had the South behind them along w the west. Their west fanbase got stronger after signing Snoop. So you buggin w this claim. The South played a major role in them selling albums between 1997-1999, w several of those releases being looked at as classics in southern hip hop.

[@TyTy-lj6hz]

Nah the south just supports southern rappers.

I miss the good days as a kid drawing pics of a tank cutting it out and using Safety pins to create a fake chain. The only people I met from No Limit was Lil Ric and Big Ed R.I.P my aunt raised my brother so almost every weekend I will be at my cousin house and Big Ed will be there a lot like he lived there. I was real young I had no clue who Ed was at the time but I remember hearing him rapping in my cousin room but I wasn't paying no attention I was too busy playing Super Nintendo lol.

[@bdr113080]

Honestly, I don’t know why this is a surprise because every hip-hop label has the same life story. There is not one label in hip-hop that is as successful today as it was during its prime. Hip-hop labels last as long as the rapper who started it was in their prime. I don’t care if it’s death row, shady, ruthless, no limit, whoever. Every label has a five or six year period where they are on top and then after that, they might sign another artist here and there in the next 10 or 15 years but they’re never on top like they were again. It’s crazy to think one of them should have this glorious 30 year run where it’s nothing but platinum albums when not one of them has ever done that before.

[@LaCheleWallace]

Interesting. Well, first of all, being on top, musically, does not last forever. Artists are only gon get so long in the limelight before the industry phases them out and makes room for the next wave. In Hip-Hop, I believe No Limit Records was phased out and made a memory. They rarely get recognition for the work they put in. After 1999, well, when Cash Money Records hit the limelight, it basically phased out No Limit Records. I believe there was a concerted effort to phase out Mr. Miller (Master P) legacy because he was too independent. Powers that be did not like that. As a black man, you need the label. You _cain't_ do this on yo' own. Sign this contract so that I can jerk yo' ass around and basically steal yo' coins. Mr. Miller wasn't down w/ the other cliques and he kinda did his own thing. No Limit Records was on fire from 1994 - 1999. That's a long run. I'm definitely still a fan. I do not agree w/ the disrespect of the No Limit Records legacy though. "They weren't lyrical enough" and whoopty-whoopty-woo. Oh, get over it! Who gives a fuck? Everybody don't wanna hear no perfect wordsmith rap all the gotdamn time. 100 million records sold independently - something's gotta be right, hell. Somebody done bought it and enjoyed it.
