No Limit

Before I even begin to type this, I already know this is going to surprise a lot of people on this forum, but everything you're about to read is true, and this is about No Limit Records. Although I've always have been (and always will be) an East Coast head, I was a fan of No Limit Records back in the day (and hopefully, once and for all that should end the talk of me being a "No Limit hater", and yes I'm talking to you SRP, lol). I did enjoy artists like Fiend, Mac, Kane & Abel, Mystikal, C-Murder (sometimes hit or miss), etc, I always liked Beats By The Pound's production (especially KLC and Craig B), and I always felt they were better than Cash Money Records. So with all of that said, read on!

Oh yeah, every album I'm about to list, not only have I heard them, but I did own back in the day also.

The best No Limit albums I've ever heard
Snoop Dogg- No Limit Top Dogg
Fiend- There's One In Every Family
Fiend- Street Life
Mac- Shell Shocked
C-Murder- Life Or Death
Magic- Sky's The Limit
Kane & Abel- Am I My Brother's Keeper
TRU- TRU 2 Da Game
Mia X- Mama Drama

Albums that were good and nothing more
Master P- MP Da Last Don
Master P- Ghetto D
I Got The Hook Up Soundtrack
Ghetto Commission- Wise Guys
Soulja Slim- Give It 2 Em Raw (one of the better NL albums)
Mystikal- Unpredictable
Mystikal- Ghetto Fabulous
Mia X- Unlady Like
Snoop Dogg- Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told
Prime Suspects- Guilty Until Proven Innocent
Gambino Family- Ghetto Organized
No Limit Soldiers Compilation- We Can't Be Stopped
Magic- Thuggin
Mac- World War III
Steady Mobb'n- Black Mafia

Albums that didn't impress me too much
Master P- 99 Ways To Die
Master P- Ice Cream Man
Skull Duggery- These Wicked Streets
Big Ed- The Assassin
Full Blooded- Memorial Day (Good god was this album terrible, and I was probably one of maybe 7 people who bought it)
Silkk Tha Shocker- Charge It 2 Da Game (I'm A Soldier was great though)
Silkk Tha Shocker- Made Man
C-Murder- Bossalinie
Lil Soldiers- Boot Camp (The production was tight on this album, too bad the lil boys got those beats)
Young Bleed- My Balls And My Word
Mr. Serv On- Life Insurance (I was never a Serv On, but I did buy this joint)
Mr. Serv On- Da Next Level (Read above. Also, I liked the production on this one, and IMO, Serv On is shown up on every song that has a guest appearance, especially the joint "From NY to NO" with Big Pun.)
TRU- True
TRU- Da Crime Family (Man, was that "No Limit Army" song a blatant rip off of BG's "Cash Money Is An Army" or what. And then P has the nerve to give a shout out to Cash Money at the end of the song. )
Mercedes- Rear End (Totally forgettable, but that album cover wasn't, lol.)

Albums I never had the chance to buy
Master P- The Ghetto's Tryin To Kill Me
Kane & Abel- The 7 Sins
Skull Duggery- Hoodlum Fo Life
Mia X- Good Girl Gone Bad
West Coast Bad Boyz, Volumes 1 & 2
Steady Mobb'n- Premeditated Drama
Silkk- The Shocker
I'm Bout It Soundtrack (I'm still a little shocked I never got my hands on this one.)
Foolish Soundtrack
The Mean Green compilation
Magic- Thuggin

I've heard the Down South Hustlers Bouncin And Swingin compilation, but never owned it. Tre-8's "Fright Night">>>>>>>>>>>>>

I agree with most of your assessments, but the "Albums That Didn't Impress Me Much" has some fucking crack in there. Namely, the near classic "My Balls And My Word" by Young Bleed. But also, Big Ed the Assassin is easily a 4 star album, Tru-True is fucking crack and a half, Skull Duggery and Full Blooded are both dope but I could see some one not digging their styles, and Mr. Serv-On is really dope.

But I believe you owned these albums and you gave some pretty fair assessments. The albums I mentioned above are clearly the more "southern" sounding ones, and honestly the lyrics might not be all that so I could see some more east coast inclinced individuals not feeling them. Silkk-The Shocker is his best album IMO.

I respect your opinions Jeff. Young Bleed's flow was never for me, but "How You Do Dat" was ok (I still feel C-Loc's verse was horrible on that one), I liked "The Day They Make Me Boss", "Bring Da Noise", and "Pull It Off". Big Ed's album had a few good songs (Make A Move>>>>>>>>>>>). From the first Tru album, of course I liked "Bout It, Bout It" and I liked "That's How We Break Bread".

Damn Wayne you heard and owned more No Limit albums than I did I think....lol.

All of those albums, I truly owned Steve. Bought them at places like Circuit City, FYE, Target, etc. I bought none of them used. Well, I did get the I Got The Hook Up Soundtrack used, lol.

Yeah man you sound like you definitely know your shit. I barely know anything about No Limit. I've listened to about 3 albums

Yeah man. I has good with my quality control with No Limit. Only few I str8 up bought without hearing first. You gotta remember I was in the south then and these bunnies were going crazy on anything they dropped. So I learned quick to be very selective of what I invested in...lol.

Oh yeah Jeff, the two things, IMO, that both of those Serv On albums had going for it was the production and the guest appearances.

Ah yes. I remember when I bought Ghetto D, from what used to be known in my area as Willie's Records, Tapes, and CDs. That was the second NL album I bought, on 4/18/98. Unpredictable was the first NL I bought, which was from the same store on 4/4/98, along with the "Been Around The World" Remix single (Puff Daddy, Mase, & Carl Thomas). I bought that Snoop joint in November 98, around the same time Ghetto Commission's album came out.

how the fuck do you remember what days you bought shit.

i dont remember what days i bought shit THIS year

From the Ice Cream Man album, I liked Break Em Off Something and Time To Check My Crackhouse. Those are the first two songs that come to mind from that album. From Charge It 2 Da Game, I'm A Soldier>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

7 Sins is nice but I like the 2nd Kane N Abel album better. However, you atleast need Gangstafied from 7 Sins. That was on repeat for a minute when I got the CD.

I liked Am I My Brother's Keeper too.

5 songs that immediately come to mind:

Throw Them Thangs>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Let's Go Get Em>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
We Don't Care>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
No Limit N*****>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
My Hood To Yo Hood>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Theres no way Wayne is a New Limit head and heard all those albums--Im not buying it. He never mentioned this in other No Limit threads. Especially the one I created a long time ago when I slammed NL. I think he's doing this to prove he's versatyle in his hip hop taste so he can make admin much more sooner

HOLY HELL man do you have any albums you dont want since you're not a fan anymore and would either give and/or sell to me relatively cheap?

I have all of the albums Justice listed(minus the Skull Duggery albums) and a few he did not mention.

I know a lot of people that actually prefer True over Tru 2 Da Game, but again, True was probably the more sound specific album.

When I had that first Tru album, I played it once, and never played it again.

Before I even begin to type this, I already know this is going to surprise a lot of people on this forum, but everything you're about to read is true, and this is about No Limit Records. Although I've always have been (and always will be) an East Coast head, I was a fan of No Limit Records back in the day (and hopefully, once and for all that should end the talk of me being a "No Limit hater", and yes I'm talking to you SRP, lol). I did enjoy artists like Fiend, Mac, Kane & Abel, Mystikal, C-Murder (sometimes hit or miss), etc, I always liked Beats By The Pound's production (especially KLC and Craig B), and I always felt they were better than Cash Money Records. So with all of that said, read on!

Oh yeah, every album I'm about to list, not only have I heard them, but I did own back in the day also.

The best No Limit albums I've ever heard
Snoop Dogg- No Limit Top Dogg
Fiend- There's One In Every Family
Fiend- Street Life
Mac- Shell Shocked
C-Murder- Life Or Death
Magic- Sky's The Limit
Kane & Abel- Am I My Brother's Keeper
TRU- TRU 2 Da Game
Mia X- Mama Drama

Albums that were good and nothing more
Master P- MP Da Last Don
Master P- Ghetto D
I Got The Hook Up Soundtrack
Ghetto Commission- Wise Guys
Soulja Slim- Give It 2 Em Raw (one of the better NL albums)
Mystikal- Unpredictable
Mystikal- Ghetto Fabulous
Mia X- Unlady Like
Snoop Dogg- Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told
Prime Suspects- Guilty Until Proven Innocent
Gambino Family- Ghetto Organized
No Limit Soldiers Compilation- We Can't Be Stopped
Magic- Thuggin
Mac- World War III
Steady Mobb'n- Black Mafia

Albums that didn't impress me too much
Master P- 99 Ways To Die
Master P- Ice Cream Man
Skull Duggery- These Wicked Streets
Big Ed- The Assassin
Full Blooded- Memorial Day (Good god was this album terrible, and I was probably one of maybe 7 people who bought it)
Silkk Tha Shocker- Charge It 2 Da Game (I'm A Soldier was great though)
Silkk Tha Shocker- Made Man
C-Murder- Bossalinie
Lil Soldiers- Boot Camp (The production was tight on this album, too bad the lil boys got those beats)
Young Bleed- My Balls And My Word
Mr. Serv On- Life Insurance (I was never a Serv On, but I did buy this joint)
Mr. Serv On- Da Next Level (Read above. Also, I liked the production on this one, and IMO, Serv On is shown up on every song that has a guest appearance, especially the joint "From NY to NO" with Big Pun.)
TRU- True
TRU- Da Crime Family (Man, was that "No Limit Army" song a blatant rip off of BG's "Cash Money Is An Army" or what. And then P has the nerve to give a shout out to Cash Money at the end of the song. )
Mercedes- Rear End (Totally forgettable, but that album cover wasn't, lol.)

Albums I never had the chance to buy
Master P- The Ghetto's Tryin To Kill Me
Kane & Abel- The 7 Sins
Skull Duggery- Hoodlum Fo Life
Mia X- Good Girl Gone Bad
West Coast Bad Boyz, Volumes 1 & 2
Steady Mobb'n- Premeditated Drama
Silkk- The Shocker
I'm Bout It Soundtrack (I'm still a little shocked I never got my hands on this one.)
Foolish Soundtrack
The Mean Green compilation
Magic- Thuggin

I've heard the Down South Hustlers Bouncin And Swingin compilation, but never owned it. Tre-8's "Fright Night">>>>>>>>>>>>>

The bolded ones I would respectively bump up at least one category.

I'm bout it is a classic - the first two west coast bad boyz are essential and steady mobb'n is the shiznit.

I see my own personal Best Of No Limit coming soon. Good thread Wayne. Trotter I think the majority of all hip hop listeners have some form of a No Limit/Cash Money/3-6 part of their CD collection. If you include the 3 Snoop CDs that were released on No Limit, I have 41 No Limit CDs. So I don't see why Wayne couldn't have a No Limit section in his collection.

Don't forget Highsmith, those albums I listed I no longer own.

Oh Lord, here we go again, lol.

I'm just saying, I used to love a girl, I hate her now and coincidentally I don't owner no more either. There's some dope albums in there that should STILL be in your collection.

Justice if you really have all of those then you may be the only person here who has more than me. And I'm very reluctant to relinquish my No Limit crown. I put a lot of effort into obtaining it. Only God Can Judge Me was the brick that shattered the glass. Full Blooded merely cracked it. FB dat was wack! The rest have joints on em that I like.

If you can find it. Sonya C and Tre-8 are probably the hardest two to find.

Try finding some of that old UNLV. Hard to come by.

This is a semi-complete list.

I didn't see any of C-Loc records releases besides Young Bleed.

Do the world a great service and edit the article good sir

Any of you ever checked this out?

C-Loc was never signed to No Limit.

P did a co-deal to release Young Bleed's albums because Bleed was signed to C-Loc's label, but Loc himself remained on his own label. I recommend some of his early work if you dig Loc, Holocaust II included.

Loc is actually always had the bad hand in things...lol... he discovered Young Bleed and Lil' Boosie, but other people made all the money off them.
